Three embed modes via shortcode or Gutenberg block: * **Property card** — `[skipseek property=spellz]` renders a compact card linking to the property, with icon and tagline. Use `[skipseek property]` without a slug to render whichever property you set as the default in Settings (ships as Spellz). * **Portfolio grid** — `[skipseek portfolio]` renders the full SkipSeek portfolio as a responsive card grid. * **Radio player** — `[skipseek radio=buddha]` embeds a slim live radio player for SkipSeek audio properties, with buffering spinner and live now-playing metadata. buddha.fm streams three channels (Focus, Calm, Sleep) — pick a site-wide default in Settings, or override per-shortcode with `channel="calm"`. The player has two chrome modes: `single` (fixed channel, compact) and `pill` (three-button switcher; visitors can change channel mid-listen). Set the default in Settings and override per-shortcode with `chrome="pill"` or `chrome="single"`. The property list is fetched live from skipseek.ai and cached locally, so the embeds stay current as new SkipSeek properties launch. ### External services This plugin connects to public SkipSeek services to fetch the property catalog ( text data only) and, for radio embeds, to play audio streams and fetch now-playing metadata. All images — property icons and the plugin’s own UI graphics — are bundled inside the plugin and served from your own site; nothing is loaded from a remote image host. #### SkipSeek property catalog * **What it is:** The public list of SkipSeek properties (slug, name, tagline, status, and for audio properties, stream URL + now-playing endpoint). Text/JSON only — no images are fetched. * **What is sent:** No user data. A simple HTTP GET; only the request itself is sent. * **When it is sent:** On the first page render that uses a SkipSeek shortcode or block, then cached locally (default: 60 minutes; configurable in Settings). * **Endpoint:** `https://skipseek.ai/api/v1/properties.json` * **Provider:** SkipSeek Inc. — [Privacy Policy](https://skipseek.ai/privacy-policy)/ [Terms of Service](https://skipseek.ai/terms-of-service) #### Radio stream + now-playing endpoints * **What they are:** The audio stream and live now-playing metadata for SkipSeek audio properties (e.g. buddha.fm). * **What is sent:** No user data. The visitor’s browser fetches the audio stream when they tap play, and polls the now-playing endpoint every 15 seconds while the player is mounted. * **When it is sent:** Only on pages that include a `[skipseek radio=...]` shortcode or block. * **Endpoints:** Per-property — e.g. `https://buddha.fm/listen` (stream) and `https:// buddha.fm/api/nowplaying` (metadata). * **Provider:** SkipSeek Inc. — same Privacy Policy and Terms as above. If you do not use any SkipSeek shortcode or block on a page, the plugin makes no network requests on that page. ## Blocks This plugin provides 3 blocks. * SkipSeek Property * SkipSeek Portfolio * SkipSeek Radio ## መጫን 1. Install the plugin from the WordPress repo, or upload the `skipseek` folder to `/ wp-content/plugins/`. 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu. 3. Drop one of the shortcodes into any post or page, or insert the matching block from the editor. (Optional) Go to **Settings SkipSeek** to adjust cache duration, color theme, or UTM tracking. ## የተለመዱ ጥያቄዎች ### What SkipSeek properties can I embed? All currently-live properties in the SkipSeek catalog. The list updates automatically as new ones launch. ### Does the radio player work with my own radio station? No — this plugin only embeds SkipSeek audio properties. To embed your own Icecast/ AzuraCast/Shoutcast stream on WordPress, install the separate “SkipSeek Radio” plugin instead. ### Can I customize the card design? The plugin uses scoped CSS variables that you can override in your theme stylesheet. The Settings page also has Dark/Light/Auto theme options. ### Does the plugin make external network requests? Yes — it fetches the public SkipSeek property catalog from skipseek.ai (cached locally, no user data sent). See the External services section below for details. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “SkipSeek” is open source software.

The catalog request remains text/JSON only. * Bundled the real brand logo for every current SkipSeek property, and added the two newest sites (HouseSit and Yachtiva) to the offline fallback catalog. * Fixed the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service links in this readme to point at the live pages (/privacy-policy and /terms-of-service). #### 0.3.2 * buddha.fm fallback icon now points at /icon-192.png (the OM glyph) instead of buddha-logo.png so the settings picker shows the correct OM mark. * [skipseek portfolio] grid output now sorts alphabetically by property name (case- insensitive). #### 0.3.1 * Settings Portfolio properties picker now sorts properties alphabetically by name (case-insensitive) so the checkboxes are scannable regardless of catalog order. #### 0.3.0 * Portfolio: new “Properties” section in Settings — pick “All live properties” ( default) or “Only selected properties” with multi-checkbox showing each property’s logo. Per-shortcode `slugs="..."` attribute still wins as the most specific override. #### 0.2.1 * Portfolio: added Sleep Chord (sleepchord.com — adaptive sleep coach) to the bundled fallback catalog so it appears in the grid until the live /api/v1/properties endpoint ships on skipseek.ai. #### 0.2.0 * Radio player: optional three-channel pill toggle (Focus / Calm / Sleep) for buddha. fm embeds. Site-wide default in Settings; per-shortcode `mode="pill"` or `mode ="single"` overrides. * Mid-playback channel switching with manifest caching — no page reload. * Per-section title customization with global defaults + per-instance `title=""` overrides. * Default single-property slug pickable in Settings (ships with Spellz). * Default buddha.fm channel pickable in Settings (ships with Focus). * Catalog data + icon URL resolution mirrors the hub PropertyIcon escalation (per- domain logo Google S2 favicons fast-forward mark). #### 0.1.0 * Initial release. * Property card, portfolio grid, and slim radio player embeds. * Shortcodes + server-rendered Gutenberg blocks. * Settings page for cache duration, theme, and UTM tracking. ## Meta * Version **0.3.3** * Last updated **2 ቀኖች ago** * Active installations **Fewer than 10** * WordPress version ** 6.2 or higher ** * Tested up to **7.0** * PHP version ** 7.4 or higher ** * Language * [English (US)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/skipseek/) * Tags * [audio player](https://am.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/audio-player/)[block](https://am.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/block/) [embed](https://am.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/embed/)[portfolio](https://am.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/portfolio/) [radio](https://am.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/radio/) * [Advanced View](https://am.wordpress.org/plugins/skipseek/advanced/) ## Ratings No reviews have been submitted yet.
