This shortcode lets you pull data into your pages via JSON. Supports unlimited levels of nesting!
Built-in caching of results keeps your data providers happy, but can be tailored to your needs with a configurable lifetime.
You can use it one of two ways (but not necessarily on the same page – see this article!)
[json src="http://example.com/my_data_src?format=json" key="Data.mykey"]
–> outputs contents of mykey in the Data object
[json src="http://example.com/my_data_src?format=json"]I want my value to appear right here {Data.mysubdata.otherKey} in the middle of my content.[/json]
–> replaces the text in {} with contents of otherKey in the mysubdata object in the Data object
Note: this plugin allows you to bring content from remote sites into your posts. Please exercise caution, especially if you allow posting by untrusted users.
