METHOD 1 – Global Injector (NEW in v5.0.0)

The Global Injector is the most powerful way to automatically add copy buttons anywhere on your website.

It allows you to target elements using CSS selectors and control exactly where the copy buttons appear.

Key Capabilities

• Display Conditions – Show copy buttons only on specific pages, posts, categories, or custom conditions.
• Multiple Style Presets – Choose from Button, Icon, or Cover styles with live preview.
• Advanced Targeting – Precisely target elements using CSS selectors such as pre, code, blockquote, and more.
• Performance Optimized – Plugin assets load only on pages where copy buttons are used.

How to Use Global Injector

1. Go to Copy to Clipboard → Global Injector in your WordPress dashboard.
2. Click Add New Injector.
3. Enter the CSS selector you want to target (for example: pre, code, or blockquote).
4. Select a style preset – Button, Icon, or Cover.
5. (Optional) Configure Display Conditions to control where the copy button appears.
6. Click Save and preview the changes on your site.

METHOD 2 – Automatically with “CSS Selector”

This is the quickest and most commonly used method. It automatically adds copy buttons to all elements that match a specific CSS selector.

Use this method when you want copy buttons to appear automatically across your entire website without manually adding them to each element.

Examples

Example 1 – Code Snippets

If your posts contain code snippets inside the <pre> tag, simply set the selector to:

The plugin will automatically add a copy button to every <pre> element, allowing visitors to copy code snippets with one click.

Example 2 – Blockquotes

If you want users to copy quotes from your blog posts, set the selector to:

A copy button will automatically appear for all blockquote elements on your site.

You can target any HTML element or custom class using CSS selectors such as:

1. Go to Copy to Clipboard in your WordPress dashboard. 2. Click the Add New button. 3. Enter the CSS selector you want to target (for example: pre or blockquote). 4. Click Create to save the selector. 5. Visit your page and you will see the copy button automatically added to the targeted elements.

• Add copy buttons to code snippets

METHOD 3 – Manually with “Shortcodes”

Use this method when you want to add a copy button only to specific content instead of applying it automatically across the entire site.

The plugin provides two shortcodes:

• [copy] – Wrap content inside the shortcode
• [copy_inline] – Copy inline text using attributes

Example – Wrapping Content

The Zoom meeting is scheduled on [copy]15 November 2022[/copy]. Please note it down.

This will add a copy button that allows users to copy “15 November 2022” with one click.

Example – Inline Content

You can use [copy_inline] to copy inline values such as emails, phone numbers, or links.

Contact us:

• Email: [copy_inline text=”contact@clipboard.agency“]
• Phone: [copy_inline text=”+91 1234567890″]
• Address: [copy_inline text=”123, Street, City, State, Country”]
• Website: [copy_inline text=”https://clipboard.agency/“]

• Facebook: [copy_inline text=”https://www.facebook.com/clipboard.agency/“]

  <h3>Example – Coupon Code</h3>

Use coupon code [copy_inline text=”COUPONCODE”] to get 10% discount.

Get the deal: [copy_inline text=”https://clipboard.agency/deal/“]

Username: [copy_inline text=”username”] Password: [copy_inline text=”password” display=”********”]

This allows users to copy sensitive values while displaying masked text. `

METHOD 4 – Manually with “Elementor Widgets”

The plugin includes multiple Elementor widgets that allow you to easily add copy buttons to specific content on your page.

Simply drag and drop a widget and configure the content you want visitors to copy.

These widgets are useful for many types of content including:

• Emails
• ChatGPT / AI prompts
• Coupon codes
• Deals and affiliate links
