[deal] (self-closing) – single deal object. Has the following attributes:
- program – the ID of your accelerator or event profile
- id – the ID of the deal
- display – property that you want to display. See “Valid Properties for Deals”
[deal-list] (enclosing) – loop through a list of deals, one by one. Has the following attributes:
- program – the ID of your accelerator or event profile
- area – category slug of the deals (see http://www.f6s.com/deals/accounting for category examples). The category slug is the last segment of the URL when accessing a deal category.
[mentor] (self-closing OR enclosing) – single deal object. Has the following attributes:
- program – the ID of your accelerator or event profile
- id – the ID of the deal
- display (used with self-closing mentor object) – property that you want to display. See “Valid Properties for Mentors”

[f6s-data] (enclosing) – put your html inside this shortcode to protect it from alterations when switching between HTML and Visual mode
[list-index] (enclosing) – to be used inside a list structure. Conditions the content in between.
Has the following properties:
-
first (no value) – the enclosing content will only be displayed once, at the beginning of the list;
-
notfirst (no value) – opposite of first, the enclosing content will not be displayed at the beginning of the list;
-
last (no value) – the enclosing content will only be displayed once, at the end of the list;
-
notlast (no value) – opposite of last;
-
odd (no value) – the enclosing content will only be displayed for an odd index when looping through list items
-
even (no value) – the enclosing content will only be displayed for an even index when looping through list items
-
multiple (numeric value) – the enclosing content will only be displayed if index is a
multiple of the given value, when looping through list items -

FAQ
-
My shortcodes seems to be broken when viewing a post, although I am sure the structure is correct. What should I do?
-
- Check if the f6s plugin is active
- Add a slash to the end of each self-closing tag (e.g. [deal display=name /])
- Make sure you’re editing the post in HTML mode not Visual Mode
-
Switching to Visual Mode breaks my shortcodes. What now?
-
Try enclosing all your f6s shotcodes between [f6s-data] and [/f6s-data]
