IMPORTANT

While the reader should work with most themes, please include this code in single-post(usually called single.php in themes) for the reader to work properly. In the github repo there should be a file called single.php. Copy and paste the code where you want the links to be(recommended: usually anything under posts will work fine) https://github.com/sykhangdha/wp-mangareader-plugin/blob/main/single.php

ShortCode

The reader, when activated, will add a custom_field named "image_links". Add image links(one image link per line) and the reader will detect all images inside the field. []

AFTER INPUTTING THE IMAGE LINKS PLEASE INSERT [manga_reader] shortcode into your post and it will display all the images from the custom field!

Note: if you want an option to use upload images from a wordpress gallery you can modify the manga-reader.php and manga-reader.js files to do this. Since the site uses external hosts to grab image links this function is not included in this reader plugin. But you are free to modify this plugin however you want!
