Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records Github README version 0.2.0 as active, updated 10y ago and tested up to WordPress 4.5.

Overview

About this plugin

Github README is a plugin that allows you to embed markdown from GitHub in a page or post using a simple shortcode.

Usage:

github_readme

This shortcode embeds the project’s readme.

[github_readme repo=”octalmage/Marknote”]

You can also trim lines from the top of the readme using the “trim” option:

[github_readme repo=”octalmage/Marknote” trim=”3″]

This is useful for removing titles since your page/post will most likely already have one.

github_markdown

This shortcode embeds any markdown file found in the repository.

md”]

trim, branch, and cache (seconds to cache) also supported.

github_wikipage

This shortcode embeds pages from a project’s wiki.

[github_wikipage repo=”octalmage/Marknote” page=”Syntax”]

trim and cache also supported.
