REST API Post Embeds

تفصیل

This plugin allows you to use the jeherve_post_embed shortcode to embed posts from your site or others’ anywhere on your site.

When creating the shortcode, you can use any of the 20 shortcode parameters to make sure the embed will include the posts you want to display, and will look the way you want it to look.

Important: You can only pull posts from 3 different types of sites:

  • WordPress.com sites.
  • Sites using the Jetpack plugin, with the JSON API module.
  • Sites using the REST API plugin, by adding wpapi="true" to your shortcode parameters.

Questions, problems?

Shortcode parameters

The jeherve_post_embed shortcode includes different parameters, listed below:

  • url:
    • URl of the site from which you want to retrieve posts.
    • Accepts URLs (no need to specify the scheme).
    • Important: If you use the default method to get posts, the site you’ll pull posts from has to be hosted on WordPress.com, or use the Jetpack plugin with the JSON API module. If you use the WP REST API, the site has to use the WP REST API plugin, version 2 or above.
    • Defaults to your own site.

    • Default to false.
    • Set to true to retrieve posts from a site using the WP REST API plugin.

ہرہک دے سوال

Can I insert the shortcode directly in my theme?

Yes, you can use the do_shortcode function to do so. You can read more about it here.

I get the following error instead of my post list: `We cannot load blog data at this time`.

See the instructions here.

Are there other ways for me to customize the post embed list?

Yes! The plugin includes quite a few filters you can use to customize the post list. You can browse the plugin’s source code to find out more.

  • jeherve_post_embed_blog_id allows you to specify a custom blog ID or normalized Jetpack or WordPress.com site URL.
  • jeherve_post_embed_base_api_url allows you to specify another REST API URL where you’ll get your posts from. It defaults to the WordPress.com REST API.
  • jeherve_post_embed_query_url allows you to change the final URL (including the options you’ve set in the shortcode parameters) used to query posts.
  • jeherve_post_embed_post_loop allows you to build your own post loop from the data you get from the API.
  • jeherve_post_embed_image_params allows you to specify custom Photon parameters applied to the Featured Images. It accepts an array of parameters. The accepted parameters are available here.
  • jeherve_post_embed_article_layout allows you to filter the layout of a single article in the list.
  • jeherve_post_embed_featured_image allows you to replace the Featured Image used for each post.
  • jeherve_post_embed_posts_cache allows you to control how long the post list is cached.
  • jeherve_post_embed_featured_cache allows you to control how long the featured images are cached.
  • jeherve_post_embed_term_cache allows you to control how long the terms are cached.
