## Description

Controllercons are a set of video game controller icons created primarly for web
use. This plugin allows you to embed them directly into your WordPress content using
the wysiwyg editor.

**HOW TO USE**
 The Controllercons plugin will add a new icon within the wysiwyg
editor within the WordPress admin. Click on the Toolbar icon to expand the toolbar
view and you will see the Controllercons icon.

Clicking this icon will reveal all of the controller icons that can be embedded 
into your content. Click on any of them to automatically place the icon.

_Icons will appear as shortcodes when editing a post but can be viewed when previewing
and publishing content_

**SHORTCODE**
 Whilst the easiest method of using Controllercons is via the wysiwyg
editor you can also use the shortcode anywhere within your content.

    ```
    [controllercon id="" size=""]
    ```

The ID parameter is the controller reference and size is an optional parameter should
you wish to use it. The size paramemeter accepts any number (decimals included) 
or fixed values i.e. 10px, 1.2rem or 1.4em. By default the size will be a `em` value
so a size of 2 will return 2em.

Shortcodes can also be used in your site template files using the following function`
<?php echo do_shortcode( '[controllercon id="snes" size="1"]' ); ?>`

Below is a list of controller references:
