Cloudstitch

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"]

Installation is easy! Just:

1. 01Upload and unzip cloudstitch-wordpress.zip in the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. 02Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
