WS Sync with Github Shortcodes

Now you can easily show/display open issues, new commits, and open pull requests using this plugin and it's shortcodes on your Wordpress website. After downloading the Plugin Files and uploading it as a new plugin, just activate it and you are ready to use the shortcodes!

1. [gitsync_issues]

Important Notes

• For public repositories, the shortcodes work without a token. Add a GitHub personal access token if you need better rate limits or private repo access.

• Replace YourGitHubToken, YourRepository, and OwnerOfRepo with the appropriate values for your GitHub repository.

• The plugin uses the WordPress HTTP API, so cURL-specific setup is no longer required.

• The plugin now sends a WordPress-safe User-Agent automatically.

• Insert the desired shortcode into your WordPress post, page, or widget to display GitHub repository information on your website.

Enjoy displaying GitHub repository data on your WordPress site using these simple and efficient shortcodes!
