How to Use the Smart Support Shortcode

Smart Support provides a powerful shortcode that lets you display the entire support system — including login, registration, ticket submission, ticket dashboard, and ticket viewing — all on a single page.

Main Shortcode

smart_support_page (with [])

This shortcode renders the complete support portal wherever you place it. Customers can:

  • Submit new tickets
  • View their existing tickets
  • Log in or register (if enabled)
  • Track ticket status and responses

Where to Use the Shortcode

You can place the shortcode on any WordPress page or post. For best results:

  1. Go to Pages → Add New (or edit an existing page).
  2. Add a title like “Support” or “Helpdesk.”
  3. Search Shortcode widget
  4. Paste the shortcode:
  5. Publish the page.
💡
Tip: Many users create a dedicated Support or Helpdesk page and link it in the main menu, so customers can easily find it.

Advanced Placement

  • Elementor/Gutenberg: Use the shortcode block or widget to insert smart_support_page (with [])
  • Widgets: Add the shortcode in a Text Widget to display support access in a sidebar or footer.
  • Navigation Menu: Link directly to your “Support” page where you placed the shortcode.

That’s it! With just one shortcode, you can launch a complete support portal inside WordPress.
