ColorBoxes 1.1<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n

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

Here’s a cool undocumented feature<\/font><\/b>1<\/a><\/sup> 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. <\/p>\n

<div class="ag-colorbox info">Text in Blue Box<\/div> <\/b><\/p>\n

Text in Blue Box<\/div>\n

<div class="ag-colorbox alert">Text in Yellow Box<\/div> <\/b><\/p>\n

Text in Yellow Box<\/div>\n

<div class="ag-colorbox urgent">Text in Red Box<\/div> <\/b><\/p>\n

Text in Red Box<\/div>\n

<div class="ag-colorbox success">Text in Green Box<\/div> <\/b><\/p>\n

Text in Green Box<\/div>\n

Note, the only difference is the code word in the first set of brackets:<\/p>\n
