Is there such this in drupal that is similar to shortcodes in wordpress?

for someone who doesnt know wat a shortcode is in wordpress:
its a little "comment" that you can put in your page or story (ex. [shortcode]) and then it is replaced with some php code.

thanks

As far as I know, Drupal doesn't have this functionality. You can embed PHP into posts using the PHP FIlter Module, but be careful to set permissions on what users can use PHP in their posts, as it can become a HUGE security problem (this is why it's not enabled by default). One the module is enabled, you can click on the Input Formats pane when creating content and select PH Input (or something to that effect).

Yes, Drupal filters are like Wordpress shortcodes. For examples see http://drupalmodules.com/category/Filters+and+editors

I know this is an old post, but I thought a comment may help someone else with the same question.
p.s.
I just found http://drupal.org/project/shortcode
