Trovo API Plugin #
This WordPress plugin allows users to display information about a Trovo streamer on their WordPress website using the Trovo API.
The plugin includes a shortcode that can be used to display a block of information about the streamer, including their profile picture, username, social links, content rating, number of followers, current streaming status, and the game they are currently playing.
This WordPress plugin allows users to retrieve and display information about Trovo channels using shortcodes. The plugin includes a function to send a cURL request to the Trovo API to retrieve information about a specified channel, and a shortcode that can be used to display this information on a WordPress page or post. The plugin also includes a stylesheet to apply styles to the displayed information, and enqueues the Font Awesome library to display social media icons. The plugin requires a client ID, which should be added to the wp-config.php file.
