Overview
Create a library of raw HTML snippets that you can easily insert into any page/post content using a shortcode:
[raw_html_snippet id=”my-snippet”]
Snippets consist of a unique ID (e.g. “my-snippet”) and raw HTML code. This plugin was written to stop using hacks that override WordPress’ core content filters and affect shortcode output.
This plugin will NOT taint your content or the output of other shortcodes. If you delete a snippet, any existing shortcodes with that snipet’s ID will output an empty string.
Remember, this allows you to output raw HTML. Use at your own risk. It will not check for malicious HTML/CSS/Javascript!

Genial!
by megamin·2 years ago
HTML, Styles, Javascript… Code als ‘Snippet’ speichern, Namen mit Bindestrichen vergeben, speichern und auf jedder Seite ‘Snippet-Code’ einfügen. Wow! It works!
Ich musste eine Sicherheitswarnung von WP-Security oder Wordfence, nicht aufgepasst :)) als ‘false positive’ quittieren, Seite ein einziges mal neuladen, dann ist alles dauerhaft ok.
Aber Vorsicht, dass der Code auch funzt. Entwickeln unbedingt außerhalb WP!
10 Stars, if possible :))
Great little tool to do the hard things quick
by hollidayjay·5 years ago
It feels a little dangerous but sometimes you just want to do something quick and simple the html way without having to write a block or a plugin or a template and then frig around with ftp uploads. It’s so simple to use if you know html that if you’re not careful it could easily become a crutch to not do things the WordPress way but I think I can live with that.
Excellent plugin
by gamark·5 years ago
This plugin is just great for table of content kind of snippets. I have been using it for some time and it’s great.
useless for displaying HTML code
by digihulpdienst·5 years ago·1 reply
It does not prevent WP from “correcting” the code. Even in the snippet editor codes like < are replaced. The HTML gets executed in stead of shown.
Wish I’d found it sooner

This plugin does exactly what you think it does from the description.
That said … I went through about a dozen solutions to the problem and finally found this one. Would have saved me a couple hours had I found it first. 🙂
