$a = shortcode_atts( array(

// ‘class’ => ‘button’,

‘href’ => ‘#’,

// ‘style’ => ”,

‘target’ => ”

), $atts );

return ‘<a class=”btn-accent-primary” href=”‘ . esc_attr($a[‘href’]) . ‘” target=”‘ . esc_attr($a[‘target’]) . ‘”>’ . $content . ‘</a>’;

// return ‘<a class=”‘ . esc_attr($a[‘class’]) . ‘” href=”‘ . esc_attr($a[‘href’]) . ‘” style=”‘ . esc_attr($a[‘style’]) . ‘” target=”‘ . esc_attr($a[‘target’]) . ‘”>’ . $content . ‘</a>’;
