Mixer Easy Embed Wall

Installation

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

1. Upload the plugin files to the wp-content/plugins/ directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
3. Use the Settings->Easy Embed for Mixer (Wall) screen to configure the plugin
4. To customize the feed from Mixer, fill either the ‘Game’ field or the ‘Channel’ field or the ‘Team’ field. Only fill one of these fields, or the feed will not work.
5. To add the widget to your site, you can use the shortcode [getMixerWall] within any page or post. Advanced WordPress users could also add the function call directly to their theme to use the widget outside of a page or post (more on this below)

Shortcode Usage

To output the Mixer Wall configured on the settings page, simply use the following shortcode anywhere in a post or page within WordPress:

[getMixerWall]

To output a Mixer Wall configured with custom settings, you can define the settings on the shortcode like this:

[getMixerWall game=”fortnite”]

[getMixerWall channels=”btcdaddy,namesx,jaredfps”]

[getMixerWall team=”partners”]

The full list of shortcode settings:

id
limit
game
channels
team

If you are using multiple walls on a single page, then each of your shortcodes needs to have a unique ID. For detailed shortcode examples, please see our demo page on the StreamWeasels site.

Advanced Usage

For those of you who know your way around a WordPress theme, it’s possible to embed the Mixer Wall widget directly within your theme using the wordpress function do_shortcode. This will allow you to put the widget anywhere in your theme, even outside of a post or a page.

To do so, use the following PHP code anywhere in your theme.

<?php echo do_shortcode('[getMixerWall]') ?>
