Core Request: https://github.com/GigaOM/gigaom/issues/3950

Hacking

In the config you can change the taxonomy the shortcodes uses for person terms.

Usage

Note: all three shortcodes require closing tags [quote]Quote text...[/quote]! All three also add an id to the quote tag for easier linking.

Pull quotes

• [pullquote]No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.[/pullquote] - base pull quote, automatically wraps the quote in <aside> tags. Wraps the content in <p> tags as well. This gives you:

<aside id='quote-1'>
        <p>
                No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.
        </p>
</aside>

• [pullquote person='Gabriel Garcia Marquez']No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.[/pullquote] - pull quote with the quoted person's name. This gives you the same code as above, but will add the person term "gabriel-garcia-marquez" to the post.

• [pullquote attribution='Gabriel Garcia Marquez']No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.[/pullquote] - pull quote with attribution. This will not add the person term to the post. However, it will add the attribution to the bottom of the code like so:

<aside id='quote-1'>
        <p>
                No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.
        </p>
        <footer>
                <cite>
                        Gabriel Garcia Marquez
                </cite>
        </footer>
</aside>

• [pullquote attribution='Love in the Time of Cholera - Gabriel Garcia Marquez' person='Gabriel Garcia Marquez']No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.[/pullquote] - pull quote with attribution and person term. This will add the person term "gabriel-garcia-marquez" to the post. It also wraps the attribution in a link that directs to the term on search.GO. Our code now looks like this:

<aside id='quote-1'>
        <p>
                No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.
        </p>
        <footer>
                <cite>
                        <a href='http://search.gigaom.com/person/gabriel-garcia-marquez/'>
                                Love in the Time of Cholera - Gabriel Garcia Marquez
                        </a>
                </cite>
        </footer>
</aside>

Block quotes

• [blockquote]No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.[/blockquote] - base block quote, automatically wraps the quote in <blockquote> tags. Wraps the content in <p> tags as well.
  • Blockquotes work the same as pull quotes, with the exception that the ,aside is changed to a <blocklquote>

Inline quotes

• [quote]No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.[/quote] - base inline quote. Wraps the quote in <q> tags. Note that the browser should wrap them in quotes automatically - so don't add any!

<q>No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.</q>

Displays "No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing."

• [quote person='Gabriel Garcia Marquez']No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.[/quote] - inline quote with the quoted person's name. This adds a person term to the post. It also adds a cite link that directs to the term on search.GO.

<q cite='http://search.gigaom.com/person/gabriel-garcia-marquez/'>No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.</q>
