Insert Pages free WordPress plugin

Insert Pages lets you embed any WordPress content (e.g., pages, posts, custom post types) into other WordPress content using the Shortcode API. It also includes a widget for inserting pages into any widget area.

The shortcode you just created should look something like this: [insert page=’assignment-1-due-date’ display=’content’] That’s it! Now, when you want to change the due date, just edit the Assignment 1 Due Date custom post you
