Install

No release zip yet. The repository archive installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow:

wp plugin install https://github.com/kupietools/ktwp-wp-plugin-embed-page/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

Declares an update source (https://michaelkupietz.com/my-plugin/kupietools-embed-page/), so updates arrive through the plugin's own updater.

KupieTools Embed Page

A WordPress plugin that enables clean, embeddable versions of your content through simple URL patterns like /embed/ or ?embed parameters, perfect for iframes and content sharing.
