Screenshots
Line chart made with WP Flot.
By putting the shortcode inside a div set to float, you can have your posts flow around the charts.
My chart doesn’t show up
- Make sure your data doesn’t contain any errors, such as a misplaced comma. The web inspector of your browser can help you with this.
- Check the source of the page, if the javascript contains an html tags, such as p or br, there probably is a problem with the wpautop filter.
- If this is the first time you view your page, try reloading. The necessary files are not included on the first time the page is loaded.
I want a fancy graph not supported by the shortcodes
Flot supports much more advanced graphs than are supported with these shortcodes, but you can add these manually. If you set the custom field ‘flot’ to ‘yes’, the plugin will load Flot for you. You can then just add your own javascript code in the editor. Check the Flot websites for a number of examples.
