Advanced Options And Attributes

Using the ‘id’ Attribute:
The ‘id‘ attribute allows you to specify the page ID and display the title accordingly.
The basic format is like this: [aio_page_title id="x"], where ‘x‘ is the page’s special ID. This makes it easy to find and display the correct title for a specified page, keeping things organized and clear.

- Output: Post Title Shortcode – (the title of the page associated with the ID 123)
To find the page ID in WordPress, go through your WordPress dashboard by editing the page and identifying the “post=(ID-NUMBER)” section in the URL inside the address bar.
Using the ‘link’ Attribute:
The ‘link‘ attribute in the shortcode [aio_page_title link="yes/no"] determines whether the page title should be linked or not. The default value is ‘no‘, meaning the title is not linked or displayed in a simple text format.
The basic format is: [aio_page_title link="yes/no"], allowing you to control whether the title is a clickable link or not.
- Input: [aio_page_title link="yes"]
- Output: Page Title Shortcode – (the title of the page with a clickable link)
- Input: [aio_page_title link="no"]
- Output: Page Title Shortcode – (the title of the page without a clickable link)
Note: Either you write [aio_page_title link="no"] or [aio_page_title link="no"] works the same way.
Using the ‘new_window’ Attribute:
The ‘new_window‘ attribute in the page title shortcode [aio_page_title new_window="yes/no"] specifies (if the link attribute is set to ‘yes‘) if it will open in a new window or not. The default value is ‘no‘, meaning the link opens in the same window.
The basic format is: [aio_page_title new_window="yes/no"], allowing you to control whether the linked title opens in a new window or not.
Attention: To utilize the ‘new_window‘ attribute in [aio_page_title] shortcode, it’s crucial to set the ‘link‘ attribute to ‘no‘, as linking the text is necessary for opening it in a new window.

- Input: [aio_page_title link="no" new_window="no"]
