TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for site owners who want to display a donation or fundraising goal tracker on their WordPress site. It solves the problem of visually tracking progress toward a goal without slowing down page load times, since it uses SVG graphics instead of remote images.

  • Shortcode-based thermometer display
  • Unlimited customisable thermometers
  • SVG vector-based rendering
  • Automatic value updates via shortcodes
  • Adjustable size and orientation
  • Currency symbol and position options
  • Thousands separator option
  • Linked shortcodes for raised/target values

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Donation Thermometer

Insert the shortcode that produces the dynamically generated number into the thermometer shortcode with single apostrophes instead of square brackets, e.g. [thermometer raised='sales id="1947"' target=5000]. The [therm_r] and [therm_t] shortcodes show different values to the thermometers. Values for these shortcodes are set on the Thermometer settings page or dashboard widget. If you want your thermometers to display the same values, remove the 'raised' and 'target' parameters from the [thermometer] shortcode, e.g. [thermometer width=300 align=right]. Values given in the shortcode will overrule those on the settings page.
Yes - just use the percentage symbol in the shortcode. For example, width=30%. As before, values can be set for Width OR height only. The default size is width=200px.
This option will change the title and alt text attributes of the thermometer image. To toggle off, type alt=off. To enter custom text, type alt='your custom text' (include apostrophes). If the option is left out the default text 'Raised xxxx towards the xxxx target.' will appear.
Yes - select the empty option on the settings page dropdown menu, or enter currency=null in the thermometer shortcode, e.g. [thermometer currency=null].
The thermometer orientation can be set on the settings page for your whole site, or individually in the thermometer shortcode using the parameter: [thermometer orientation=landscape]. Raised and target values will also rotate automatically.
Once this happens the thermometer will completely fill. The shortcode parameter [thermometer swapvalues=true] can also be used to swap the target and raised value locations, thus allowing you to show how far above your target your current raised total stands.
There are two options for filling the thermometer: with a uniform colour (the default) or with a colour gradient. Either method can be set from the plugin's settings page or via the shortcode parameters. A uniform fill can be set in the shortcode using [thermometer fill=#d7191c filltype=uniform]. Drawing a gradient fill requires the additional fill2 parameter: [thermometer filltype=gradient fill2=#eb7e80].
