WordPress Binpress Component Widget

I found out a while ago that WordPress does not like the BinPress affiliate widget, so instead of fighting with it, I created this easy to use plugin that allows you to place the widget anywhere, and use any of the options from the actual Widget.

The First Shortcode

To use the shortcode you simply write:

[binpress ad="YOUR ID"]

This is the simplest way to use the shortcode, and it will show a random component.

Want to show a static component?

That's easy, just type:

[binpress ad="YOUR ID" component="COMPONENT ID"]

You know, that awesome little number up top at the end of the URL?

Here is a full list of options for the shortcode:

• ad - Affiliate ID
• component - Component ID
• language (actionscript,c,coldfusion,etc) - The short language code, full list can be found in the Widget area.
• color (default is empty, and orange, only other option is blue)
• framework (This option requires that you are using Language)
• platform (This option requires that you are using Language)

The Second Shortcode

The second shortcode is [binpress_banner]. This will show the static image banners for the BinPress affiliate IDs.

Arguments:

• ad - Affiliate ID
• width - The width of the banner.
• height - The height of the banner.
• alt - This is an optional tag that allows you to edit the alt text of the banner image.

Valid width / height combinations:

200x200, 250x250, 280x58, 300x250, 336x280, 468x60, 728x90.
