ColorBoxes 1.1
This plugin allows users to easily add colored information boxes to the top of any post or page. You can insert a blue, yellow, red, or green text box between the title and body of any post or page. Accepts embedded HTML code. Simple. Great way to call attention to critical information. Easy to install and easy to use.

Here’s a cool undocumented feature1 I discovered, which I like almost as well as the intended, documented, purpose of the plugin. That is, you can create a colored box anywhere in the text of the post or page, by using the following code.
<div class="ag-colorbox info">Text in Blue Box</div>
<div class="ag-colorbox alert">Text in Yellow Box</div>
<div class="ag-colorbox urgent">Text in Red Box</div>
<div class="ag-colorbox success">Text in Green Box</div>
Note, the only difference is the code word in the first set of brackets:
- info = blue
- alert = yellow
- urgent = red
- success = green
My rating (out of 5 stars):
FOOTNOTE:
- “Undocumented, means a function or use that the author did not intend, or does not feel sufficiently confident to advertise. If you or I use an undocumented feature, things could break. Your system could lock up, or be horribly disfigured with random characters, at the next upgrade. Use at your own risk! ↩
