dv-shortcode-whitelist

Allows me to add shortcodes to bbpress safely. Excellent job. Thanks

I was looking everywhere for this. "User Shortcuts" is what I googled and "buddypress user based shortcodes" but got nothing. I went on Buddypress.org and asked for support as these searches returned many results that did not do what this plugin does. They told me it couldn't be done. I started asking about hooks, and started researching hooks when I cam across another (out of date) plugin when I ran into this! Thanks Guys/Gals, Ive tried it out and it does EXACTLY what I want it to do. I need to create a shortcut for it to use, then present my users with that shortcut. Perfect! Now, I can update this information as we want without having to update the pages! Woot! Very Cool! Thanks!

I admit, that I gave the idea of this plugin to egemenerd. It was just like they put into the description! I had created a bbPress forum (using a theme by egemenerd) and wanted to allow some shortcodes for my users. Since there wasn't such a feature in the theme, I began to google and found a lot of examples, where you allow all shortcodes in forums. But allowing all shortcodes poses a big security risk, that's why they are disabled in the first place. What I ended up doing, was a combination of a user role plugin and my custom code. It works, but is no way a layman's solution. This "DV Shortcode Whitelist" just makes it a hell of a lot easier for everyone!
