Shortcodes?

I need to be able to insert the course catalog in a page via shortcode. And have more control as the widgets have. Or be able to insert the widget options within a page and not the side bar.

Is there any way to do this?

As it is, when I imported my catalog, it took over my classes page (where I’d like to have some other things imbetween) and also won’t display the WP page title, or my sidebar.

Please help. I’d appreciate any way to achieve a better result, because I was thrilled to see there was a WP plugin for coursestorm
