A User Defined Tag (UDT) in CMS Made Simple™ is a small piece of PHP-code (without ) that can be called with just a short {SmartyTag}.
Using PHP-code for styling a content page or blog article is probably not the first thing that comes in mind. But because of the easy way to name and call the UDT, and the flexibility of its content it is very useful!! Okay, you *do* need a little bit of understanding how to create a line of PHP with single and double quotes...

Here at my blog I use <h3> blocks for subtitles. But I have different kinds of them, and they have different images attached (Font Awesome). Doing this in HTML isn't an option, to complex...

I created a few UDT's which I can place in the content where I want without any fuss.

  How to use

The "How to use" title

UDT content "how_to_use"

  Working example

The "Working example" title

UDT content "working_example"

 Example title with anchor link

Create anchor links to titles

UDT content "insert_anchor"

Note: These are just a few examples that work for me! You should adapt or create your own for your need and wishes. The reason I post them is to give you a headstart on an alternative method to the regular styling.
