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/methnen/hanzi-converter/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.

This is super rough and I don't necessarily consider it ready for prime time but it does function.

This inserts a meta box into posts and pages.

The meta box accepts either a string of Hanzi or a some Chinese to English dialog.

If it gets a string of Hanzi it'll just return the Pinyin conversion of that text:

For dialog it expects text in the format of English then Chinese or Chinese and then English:

那他自己能同意吗?
Would he agree with this?
你知道吗?
You know?

When it gets that kind of input it'll return something like this:

那他自己能同意吗?|nà tā zì jǐ néng tóng yì ma?|Would he agree with this?
你知道吗?|nǐ zhī dào ma?|You know?
