What is it?
Ever tried getting JavaScript content into your WordPress posts or pages? Yeah, that’s impossible. WP strips down all
the JavaScript.
This makes adding JavaScript Charts and Maps a hassle.
Developed and maintained by amCharts staff, this plugin solves the problem by allowing you to create chart code snippets, that then subsequently can be inserted into the
posts or pages as a shortcode. (helpful button in TinyMCE is also there)
You can also use a built-in PHP function to invoke the chart anywhere in your template:
<?php amcharts_insert( $chart_id ); ?>
The plugin has also many helpful functions:
- Easy switching between CDN-hosted or local chart/map libraries storage
- Setting defaults per chart type
- Automatically locating installed libraries and available resources
