Features

  • Works with most browsers, but degrades nicely in older browsers
  • CSS3 compliant, no Javascript or other code is used to generate button (note that Javascript is used to open links in new windows)
  • CSS only loads on pages with shortcode or function call
  • You can use shortcodes inside shortcodes, i.e. [standout-css3-button][my_shortcode][/standout-css3-button]
  • Many different color styles to choose from, but you can also create your own
  • Custom CSS automatically busts caches when you update it. Change it as often as you want, it will display changes in real-time!
