Slickstream Widget Shortcodes
Many Slickstream components can be added to WordPress websites by using a widget or a shortcode. Below are the details for each Slickstream component.
The shortcodes below will add the Slickstream component only. They will not add any titles or other ancillary text. This should be added and styled like any other text in WordPress.
The widgets do allow for the inclusion of an optional title where applicable.
These are all available in the 1.1.9 (and later versions) of the Slickstream plugin.

- You can also optionally add an "id" attribute to the shortcode, such as [slick-grid id="grid2"] if using multiple grids on the page.
