🛠 How to Use:

Install the Profile Frame Generator plugin via Plugins > Add New.
Navigate to Dashboard > Profile Frame.
Click “Select Frame from Media Library”, choose your PNG frame, and click Select Frame.
Configure the new control settings (Zoom, Rotate, Bokeh, etc.) as desired.
Click the “Save Settings” button.
Copy the shortcode (e.g., [profile_frame frame="123"]) or just [profile_frame] to use the default saved frame.
Paste the shortcode on any post or page.
Save and view the page – the frame generator canvas will be visible to users.

✨ Frame Interaction & Controls:

Users can customize their image overlay using the following:
– Zoom Buttons – Precise zoom control.
– Rotate Buttons – Rotate image 90 degrees left or right.
– Mouse Wheel – Zoom in/out of the uploaded image.
– Mouse Drag – Reposition the image within the frame.
– Mobile (Pinch to Zoom) – Two-finger pinch gesture to zoom.
– Mobile (Rotate) – Rotate the image left or right using your fingers.
– Gravatar – Enter email to auto-load profile picture.

🖼 Multiple Frame Support:

To use more than one frame:
– Use [profile_frame frame="image_id_here"] where image_id_here is the Media Library ID of your PNG frame.
– Each frame must be used on a separate page, as only one frame is supported per page.

Example:
– Frame A: [profile_frame frame="123"]
– Frame B: [profile_frame frame="456"]

⚠️ Performance First: The plugin only loads CSS and JS on pages with the shortcode, ensuring fast load times and minimal impact on your site.
