Adding popups To add a popup, while editing a post, surround your text with [wikipopup] shortcode. You can reference a language or a different source, if you’ve set one up. For example: – [wikipopup]WordPress[/wikipopup] – Displays a popup from English Wikipedia about the article “WordPress” – [wikipopup title="WordPress"]This is some text[/wikipopup] – Displays a popup from English Wikipedia about the article “WordPress”, while the trigger text is ‘This is some text’ – [wikipopup title="WordPress" source="ext"]This is some text[/wikipopup] – Displays a popup from the external source you’ve defined as “ext”, about the article “WordPress”, while the trigger text is ‘This is some text’ You can define sources in “Settings -> Wikilookup -> External wikis”. Adding cards To add a card, while editing a post, add a line with [wikicard title="term"]. You can reference a language or a different source, if you’ve set one up. For example: – [wikicard title="WordPress"] – Displays a static card from English Wikipedia about the article “WordPress”. – [wikicard title="WordPress" lang="es"] – Displays a static card from Spanish Wikipedia about the article “WordPress”. – [wikicard title="WordPress" source="ext"] – Displays a static card from the external source you’ve defined as “ext”, about the article “WordPress”.
