YamTrack Sync for WordPress is a simple-to-use bridge that connects your YamTrack watch history to your WordPress site.

This plugin will display your most recently watched movie or TV show with a beautiful, customizable dashboard widget.

Please Note: I'm actively developing this plugin and more layout options will be coming soon so make sure to add this repo to your watch list to keep up with them!

👀 Demo

You can see the plugin in action on my review site What Katy Reviewed Next — check the right sidebar for and that "What Katy's watching next" section, or check out the example below that shows how a TV episode is currently displayed:

✨ Key Features

• Automated Python Sync: Lightweight script fetches data from your local YamTrack SQLite database.
• Secure REST API: Communication is protected by a unique, auto-generated secret key.
• Zero-Config UI: Download a pre-configured Python setup package directly from your WordPress admin.
• Highly Customizable: Full control over alignment, colors, typography, and image rounding through the settings panel.
• Smart Caching: Avoids redundant uploads by fingerprinting watch dates.

🚀 How It Works

1. Download the Plugin: Download the latest release to your PC
2. Install the Plugin: Upload the .zip to your WordPress site and activate it.
3. Generate Your Sync File: Go to the "YamTrack Sync" admin page and click Download .zip Package.
4. Deploy Python: Extract the downloaded kwwd-yamtrack-sync-setup.zip and then upload the yam_to_wp.py file to your YamTrack server (e.g., inside your Docker container or server environment), or FTP your files to your YamTrack server. (Note: You'll need to ensure that your YamTrack Database path is set correctly in the yam_to_wp.py File - check the included readme.txt file for details on how to find its location if you didn't install Yamtrack with default options).
5. Automate: Set a Cron job or Task Scheduler on your Yamtrack server to run the Python script—your WordPress site updates. 15 minutes is recommended but you can set this however you want.

🛠️ Requirements

• WordPress: 6.0 or higher.
• Python: 3.x with requests and sqlite3 libraries — this should be pre-installed on your Yamtrack Docker instance by default
• YamTrack: Access to the db.sqlite3 file.
