Plugin for buttons?

  • So what I would like to do is, create some category sections on some of the landing pages. Sort of like a button, just with text and picture inside of it. Here is an example

    I tried looking through some different plugins, but I wasn’t succesful on finding a actual plugin, that helped me.

    If someone could point me in the right direction, I would appriciate it.

  • WordPress allows HTML to be pasted in the text editor. When composing the page, instead of using the visual editor, use the text editor. In the post, use some HTML to create a table with a couple of columns and a couple of rows, with the images and text inside the table cells. (similar to the page on the site that you linked to, which has two columns and three rows, with pictures and text and hyperlinks in each cell…)

    How would this solution work in your case?

    For example here is an example of the HTML for an HTML table with two columns and two rows, with pictures and with text in each of the cells.

    <TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>
     Hello.
<IMG SRC="picture.jpg" ALT="Picture Here">
</TD>
<TD>
Hello again.
<IMG SRC="picture.jpg" ALT="Picture Here">
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>
     Hello  a Third time.
<IMG SRC="picture.jpg" ALT="Picture Here">
</TD>
<TD>
Hello a fourth time.
<IMG SRC="picture.jpg" ALT="Picture Here">
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

    That makes sense. I just tried adding it to the WP site, and I have some minor problems.

    Here is the site: Here!

    So I’m having trouble displaying the pictures. When I type in the url, I do like this: “<IMG SRC=”parkingspot.dk/wp-content/uploads/monter.jpg” ALT=”Picture Here”>” What am I doing wrong to tell it the right path?

    I would also like to add some borders to the table, and make it a bit bigger.

    WordPress allows HTML to be pasted in the text editor.

    Well… ish. When you paste raw HTML into the text editor that will work for most things. But the moment you switch that post to the Visual Editor that all goes out the window. The Visual Editor will usually ruin that code.

    There are several ways to produce that output but probably the simplest and most supportable way is to use a plugin.

    If you want to produce tables like that then consider this plugin.

    I’ve not used it myself but the author’s support is first rate.

    Or try something with columns. Christine Rondeau (who will certainly get a ping for this topic ?? ) put together some slides showing off what you can do with other plugins.

    It’s a good slide deck and you can re-arrange your post with those shortcodes in those plugins.
