Description

Create an oik_shortcode programmatically

Creating a shortcode programmatically involves

1. Check the code is not already defined
2. If it is then we use the $post ID for the parameters
3. If not then we create the shortcode
4. a. Which may require us to create the API that implements the shortcode
5. b. Which suggests we should also consider creating the plugin in the first place ?
6. For each specified parameter (either through interface or shortcode__syntax) insert an oik_sc_param
