Install

Download source zip No release zip yet

This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

wp plugin install https://github.com/ashleyfae/what-im-reading/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

A widget for displaying books on one of your Goodreads shelves.

Important Note:

Goodreads is no longer issuing new API keys so this plugin is no longer in development.

Installation

  2. Go to Plugins > Add New and upload the zip file.
  3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get a Goodreads API key?

  1. Login to Goodreads and visit their API key page: https://www.goodreads.com/api/keys
  2. Fill in the details under "App Info". You can set the Application Name to "Goodreads Shelf" and the Company Name to your blog name. The details don't particularly matter. Leave all the optional fields (application URL, callback URL, and support URL) blank.
  3. Click Update App Info to save your settings.
  4. Your API key (and secret) will then be shown on the page. Copy the key value and paste it into the widget settings.

Why isn't my shelf updating?

The shelves only reload once every six hours.

WP Registry hashes the installable build and reports on that exact bytes-for-bytes copy. Embargoed findings are withheld until they are disclosed, so a clean verdict means nothing public is outstanding. WP Manifest does not audit code itself.
