Drive Folder Embedder

Description

A WordPress plugin that dynamically creates a table with file names and links for a shared Google Drive folder.

Usage

  • All plugin functionality is accessed through shortcodes in the format «[DriveFolderEmbedder]». Shortcode options are outlined below.
    • FolderID (required): The ID of the shared Google Drive folder from which to pull files.
      • To get your folder ID:
        • Share the folder in Google Drive with a public shared link (see the «Anyone with a link to the folder» section of https://support.google.com/drive/answer/7166529).
        • Your folder ID is part of the shared link created above above (link is in the format https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/[ID HERE]?usp=sharing).
    • Sort: How to sort the file table. All sorting is done based on file names.
      • Options: «ASC», «ASC_Natural», «DESC», «DESC_Natural»
      • If «Sort» is not specified, the «DESC» option is used (default in Google Drive).
    • ShowHeader: Whether or not to show a table header specifying column names.
      • Options: «True» or «False».
      • If «ShowHeaders» is not specified, defaults to «True».
    • TableCSSClass: Allows for a CSS class name to be entered to define table style.
      • Can contain one or more class names separated by a space.
      • No class is set for the table if this value is not provided.
  • Shortcode examples:
    • Basic table generation: [DriveFolderEmbedder FolderID="123456789"]
    • Table generation with «Sort», «ShowHeader», and «TableCSSClass» specified: [DriveFolderEmbedder FolderID="123456789" Sort="DESC_Natural" ShowHeader="False" TableCSSClass="some-class-name"]
