Cloudstitch is a community of spreadsheet powered widgets you can add to any site — things like product lists, data visualizations, and conference schedules.
This plugin makes every widget on Cloudstitch available in WordPress with a simple Shortcode.
Adding a shaded electoral map of the US, for example, is as simple as adding the following line: [cloudstitch widget="project-templates/electoral-map-visualization"]
Trying it Out
Try out the plugin by injecting demo widget already on Cloudstitch. Just add the following Shortcode to a page or post:
`
[cloudstitch widget=”project-templates/electoral-map-visualization”]
`
Using your own Cloudstitch Widgets
You can inject any widget that you’ve duplicated and customized on Cloudstitch. The general Shortcode format is:
`
[cloudstitch widget=”USER-NAME/PROJECT-NAME”]
`
For example, let’s say you visited Cloudstitch.io and duplicated that electoral map widget.
Assuming your username is TheIncredibleHulk, you would end up with your own copy of the project hosted at a URL like this: http://cloudstitch.io/TheIncredibleHulk/electoral-map-visualization.
Your custom Shortcode is thus [cloudstitch widget="TheIncredibleHulk/electoral-map-visualization"]
