Inceptus Process displays BPMN publications exported as process.json from Inceptus Modeler. Upload a publication in Tools > Inceptus Processes and embed it in a WordPress page using its publication code.

Simulation is the default presentation mode. Visitors can start the published process and follow its visual simulation, including supported Message Flows and Boundary Events. Process and Activity descriptions are presented as semantic HTML when included in the publication.

Animation is an optional, automatically repeating presentation of the diagram. It shows the published diagram names and connector labels without process-description panels or Simulation execution controls. Animation respects reduced-motion preferences.

Choose the initial view independently for each shortcode:

width fits the diagram width.
height fits the diagram height.
custom uses the saved publication view where available and is the default.

Use Process Groups to select one valid member publication when WordPress renders the page. Each process belongs to at most one group. A full-page cache can retain the selected process until the page is regenerated.

The plugin works with WordPress shortcode content and Elementor’s Shortcode widget. The public viewer includes English, Polish, French, German, and Spanish labels. Administration translations use WordPress-managed language packs when available, with English as the fallback. Authored process names and descriptions retain their original language.

This plugin is a publication viewer with visual simulation. It is not a production workflow execution service and does not claim complete BPMN standards conformance.

Shortcodes

Default Simulation:

[inceptus_process code="car-rental"]

Diagram-only Animation:

[inceptus_process code="car-rental" mode="animation"]

Animation fitted to the diagram width:

[inceptus_process code="car-rental" mode="animation" initial_view="width"]

A Process Group:

[inceptus_process group="warehouse"]

Use either code or group in a shortcode. Both presentation modes support initial_view=”width”, “height”, and “custom”. An optional height=”600″ requests a fixed viewer height.

Publication data and external links

Only process.json publications in Inceptus.PublishedProcess formatVersion 1 are accepted. The publication supplies its code, title, descriptions, revision, diagram, and simulation data.

Published JSON is stored in the site’s public uploads directory under inceptus/processes/{code}/process.json. Treat uploaded publications as public content. Updating a publication with the same code preserves its shortcode and group assignment.

The viewer loads its scripts and styles from the installed plugin and its publication JSON from the site’s configured uploads URL. No analytics, telemetry, or automatic connection to the Inceptus editor is implemented.

The administration page includes links to the Inceptus BPMN Editor, editor information, and plugin information. These open external websites only when clicked. The editor link includes the administration interface language as a lang query parameter. Publishing a diagram in the external editor is a separate user action.
