Plugin Description
Important: if you use the PlugIn with WordPress version 5.0.x you have to use the classic editor. Currently there is no support for the new Block Editor. I still wait for a useful documentation to integrate the PlugIn into the Block Editor. If you use the classic editor the PlugIn works fine with WordPress 5.0
SVT Simple is the perfect solution to add any Google Street View Panorama to your posts and pages. SVT Simple is very easy to use and should add a minimal footprint to your WordPress site. The PlugIn was developed by a Street View Trusted photographer and should help others to improve the use of those beautiful panoramas.
Instead of entering the shortcode manually, SVT Simple offers an interactive map to find the panorama you are looking for. The easy to use drag & drop interface allows you to enter all options and will generate the ready to use shortcode for you. Therefor SVT Simple adds an icon next to the “Add Media” button and above the WP default editor. Press this icon to open a dialog with the interactive map and a search box. You can search for an address or use the map to navigate to the panorama you like to integrate into your site.
SVT Simple offers two options to embed any Street View Pano into your WordPress site:
* as an interactive panorama with a size you specify
* as a static image with a maximum size of 640×640 pixel (that’s a limitation by Google)
Since it’s released under the GPL, you can use it free of charge on your personal or commercial site – but if you want you can support my efforts by donating with PayPal https://paypal.me/pojamapeoples
KEY FEATURES
* Minimal footage for the plugin
* Easily embed any Google Street View panorama into your posts or pages
* Search for an address or object to locate a panorama
* Interactive Drag & Drop interface to select the panorama and orientation
* Autorotation as an option to add a smooth rotation effect to the panoramas
* Static Images created from the panorama in any size (up to 640px). With a Lightbox attached that will open the interactive panorama
* Based on the latest Google API
* Many options to fine-tune the integration of the plugin into you WordPress site
* Multi language support
The interactive panorama can be set to autorotate. This is a very attractive way to present your panorama. Even when the autorotation is on, the user still can interact with the panorama.
The static image comes with a Lightbox that opens if the user clicks the image. You can give the Lightbox any dimension you like.
SVT Simple has a small footprint and offers several options to optimise the way it will be integrated into your site.
SVT Simple supports multiple languages and comes with an English and German language file. More will be added later.
The Lightbox part was created using the wonderful Featherlight library. See http://noelboss.github.io/featherlight/ for more info about it. Because of this library SVT Simple requires jQuery version 1.7.0 or higher. If you switch off the static image option on the settings page no jQuery will be needed.
The SVT Simple plugin is in no way related to Google itself. It was made by an independent developer (myself) and I’m not related to Google in any way.
