How Do I Add CSS to Shortcode in WordPress?

When you’re working with WordPress, you’re often required to add custom styles to specific elements. One way to do this is to use shortcodes.

A shortcode is simply a piece of code that you insert into a post or page, and it will automatically generate the necessary HTML for you.

To add custom styles to a shortcode, you first need to find the shortcode you want to style. To do this, open the post or page in which you want to add the shortcode, and then look for a code block that looks like this:

[my_shortcode]

Inside of this code block, you’ll see a series of brackets and space-separated words. The first word in the series is the name of the shortcode, and the second word is the code that will be run when the shortcode is called.

In this example, the my_shortcode shortcode is being used to generate the HTML for a paragraph.

To add custom styles to the my_shortcode shortcode, you’ll need to add a series of CSS rules inside of the code block that corresponds to the elements that you want to style. For example, if you want to style the paragraph inside of the my_shortcode shortcode, you would add the following CSS rule to the code block:

p {

font-size: 18px;

}

This rule will increase the size of the font used for the paragraph inside of the my_shortcode shortcode. You can also add other CSS rules to style the paragraph, depending on what you want to do.

Once you’ve added the CSS rule that you want to use, you’ll need to save the post or page, and then reload it in order for the new styles to show up.
