🚀 Rapid Application Development with the App Builder

Shortcode Usage

All app types can be embedded on the front-end using the wpda_app shortcode. Shortcodes can be generated through the App Manager or entered manually.

📌 This page explains standard plugin shortcode parameters.
📌 Custom shortcode parameters are explained in the Shortcode Parameters section.

✨ Add app to the front-end

The following shortcode adds an app with app_id=9 to the front-end. The app_id is available in the App Builder.

[wpda_app app_id="9"]

✨ Enable feedback

Authorization and usage errors are hidden by default to prevent displaying them to unauthorized users on front-end pages. To show these errors, enable feedback.

[wpda_app app_id="3" feedback="true"]

✨ Disable builders

Builder access is automatically enabled on front-end pages for administrators, allowing them to modify app settings directly. Disabling builder access removes all builder icons.

📌 Anonymous and non-admin users never see these builder icons.

[wpda_app app_id="17" builders="false"]

✨ Hide title bar

You can hide the title bar for data tables, data administration apps, maps, charts, and registration forms. For data apps, the title bar cannot be hidden, as this would also remove the app's navigation.

[wpda_app app_id="17" hidetitlebar="true"]

✨ Start in full-screen mode

Data apps can be launched in full-screen mode (this feature is not available for other app types).

[wpda_app app_id="17" fullscreen="true"]

✨ Combining parameters

You can combine parameters, though some combinations are incompatible. For example, enabling builder icons while hiding the title bar would be illogical.

[wpda_app app_id="17" feedback="true" hidetitlebar="true"]
