Miniclip Games Arcade

Description

The Miniclip Games Arcade WordPress plugin gives you a simple way to make use of the Miniclip Webmaster Games API and embed our content onto your site.

This plugin is great for those who want to get some free interactive content onto their website. Games are a fun way to encourage your site visitors to stick around, and visit again and Miniclip has one of the best games libraries online.

You can get a full list of available game embed shortcodes here: http://www.miniclip.com/webmasters/docs/shortcodes/en/

Currently you can embed games in your blog posts using a couple of shortcodes, and we have a lot of ideas for future additions. Please feel free to ping us on Twitter if you have any feedback or suggestions.

Use of the Miniclip Games plugin is subject to agreeing to the Miniclip webmaster terms and conditions.

How To

After downloading and installing the plugin you can start to embed Miniclip games into your website.

Game Shortcode Embed

The most basic usage is with a shortcode. All you need to use this is the game id for the game you would like to embed. The following code will embed the game ‘8 Ball Pool’ on your site.

[game id="2471"]

You can get a list of all the available games here: http://www.miniclip.com/webmasters/docs/shortcodes/en/

Category Shortcode Embed

Embed the top 5 games from the specified game category on a page. The following example will embed the top 5 action games from Miniclip.com.

[game-category id="13]

At the moment the easiest way to find the id for the game categories is to browse to the category you want to embed on http://www.miniclip.com and then look at the number next to the word genre- in the url. For example the action category looks like http://www.miniclip.com/games/genre-13/action/en/ – which makes 13 the category id.

While this plugin works well, it violates rule #10 of the WordPress Plugin Guidelines (https://wordpress.org/plugins/about/guidelines/) as it embeds a link to an external site by default. Actually there’s no way to turn it off at all. Please consider removing this link, thanks!

Works properly on the latest version of WordPress very simple but does the job well. You can also just go to their website and grab the embed code if you want too ^^
