Bright Shortcodes

In most implementations, Bright integrates with page rendering in WordPress through the use of WordPress shortcodes. Bright Shortcodes tightly integrate with Bright templates. A Bright Shortcode renders a specified template to the page. The shortcode is also used to parameterize and configure the rendering of the template.
