ESV WordPress Plugin

Chris Roberts has come up with a great WordPress Plugin, using the ESV web services. What it does is take a bible reference and go and get the text of that reference and display it as either a tooltip, or as a block of text under the reference (you can choose either depending on how you use it.

This is a great idea, and kudos to you Chris for taking the time to get this working, and to get it to work as a plugin for everyone. Already linked up by the ESV guys, and I’ll be posting this to blogs4God too.

  1. Hello,

    I thought you might be interested in the Scripturizer Remix plugin. It works differently than Chris’ plugin in that:

    (1) It doesn’t use propiatery tags — this means it can read scripture references within posts, pages, and comments without the need for tags like [scripture reference] ..ref .. [/scripture reference]

    (2) It can run dynamically (change refs on the fly) or statically (change once for all on post/edit actions)

    (3) It has the option to pull the ESV text for any reference on the page and to automatically display it via a show/hide link.
