# Shortcodes

The shortcodes provided by GeneratePerf and their parameters.

| Shortcode | What it shows | Parameters |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `[sitemap]` | A sitemap of your posts, grouped by category | None |
| `[archives_link]` | A link to the archive of the month of your latest post | None |
| `[popular_tags]` | The most used terms of a taxonomy | `limit` (default `25`), `taxonomy` (default `post_tag`) |
| `[tags_list]` | All the terms of a taxonomy | `taxonomy` (default `post_tag`) |
| `[team_list]` | Authors, editors and administrators who have published posts, most active first | `exclude`: comma-separated user IDs |
| `[contact_form]` | The contact form of GeneratePerf, protected by reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha or Cloudflare Turnstile; when WP Armour is active, its honeypot protects it instead, with no key to set | set in [Contact form](https://generateperf.com/docs/settings-features/#contact) |
| `[polylang_langswitcher]` | A compact Polylang language switcher | None |
| `[custom_shortcode value="name"]` | The HTML of `shortcodes/name.html` in your child theme, with its styles scoped | `value`: the file name, without extension |

`[custom_shortcode]` is useful for small reusable pieces of HTML maintained in your child theme. If the file is missing, administrators see the expected path; visitors see nothing.
