Bootstrap-style content without a Bootstrap theme
Easy Bootstrap Shortcode Pro adds Bootstrap-style presentation tools to WordPress through TinyMCE editor buttons and shortcodes. The plugin is designed for sites that want responsive content components without requiring a Bootstrap-based theme. With a setting, Bootstrap styles can be used in themes that are not based on Bootstrap.
Instead of manually pasting shortcode text into the editor, you can add supported elements by clicking an editor icon. This approach is useful for site owners and content editors who need to assemble structured layouts, notices, buttons, and other interface elements from within the WordPress editing workflow.
Responsive layouts and interface elements
The shortcode collection includes grid columns, with options to add multiple columns in a row, choose column widths, and add offsets. Column behavior can be customized for medium, small, and extra-small screen sizes, supporting responsive layouts for different displays.
Other available components include accordions, tabs, lists, notifications, popovers, tooltips, panels, progress bars with labels, labels, buttons, icon headings, tables, responsive images, image effects, wells, dropdown buttons, button groups, toolbars, description lists, service boxes, responsive sliders, badges, and jumbotrons. Image effects include round, thumbnail, and square treatments.
Icons, styling, and integration controls
The plugin supports more than 500 Font Awesome and Glyphicons icon fonts, while the feature description also identifies 250 Glyphicons and Font Awesome icon support. Icons can be added through the editor rather than entered as shortcode text manually.
For more control over the resulting markup and styling, you can add your own custom CSS class to shortcodes. The plugin also provides the option to use a JavaScript file from a CDN or disable the plugin JavaScript. Its CSS can be disabled so that you can use your own CSS file. These settings provide flexibility when integrating the shortcodes into an existing theme or another plugin.
Pro presentation features
The Pro version includes presentation styles identified as Pro features. These include line separators, drop caps, YouTube and Vimeo video elements, boxes and frames, horizontal rules, testimonials, section headings, social elements, lead text, page headers, and highlights. These additions extend the toolkit beyond the general Bootstrap-style components and support more varied page layouts.

Installation and theme integration
Install Easy Bootstrap Shortcode Pro in WordPress, then use its settings to select how the plugin’s CSS and JavaScript should work with your site. If you are embedding the plugin into a theme or another plugin, the available compatibility settings let you use your own CSS and JavaScript files. Choose a custom shortcode prefix when needed to reduce conflicts, preferably when first installing the plugin, because changing an existing prefix can make previously created EBS shortcodes stop working.
