WP Plugin Info Card lets you display WordPress plugins, GitHub repositories, Easy Digital Downloads plugins, and third-party plugins in beautiful, customizable cards using blocks or shortcodes (compatible with most page builders).

Whether you are showcasing your own plugins, highlighting recommended tools, or displaying GitHub projects, WP Plugin Info Card gives you more flexibility than the default WordPress blocks by supporting multiple data sources with consistent, beautiful layouts.

It works with WordPress.org plugins and themes, GitHub repositories, Easy Digital Downloads (EDD) products, and third-party plugins, so you are not limited to a single ecosystem.

This plugin is perfect for:

Reviewers and Developers wanting to showcase projects, whether hosted on GitHub, WordPress.org, or hosted else-where and custom created.
WordPress contributors who’d like to display contribution badges or past contributions.
Users wanting more design choice and layout variation than what is offered by the Core WordPress blocks.

Why use WP Plugin Info Card?

The default WordPress Plugin/Theme blocks are limited to WordPress.org listings with a limited design. WP Plugin Info Card expands on that by allowing you to display plugin cards and project cards from multiple sources in several beautiful cards.

Use it to:

Display WordPress.org plugin cards and theme cards anywhere on your site. Customize the grids and layouts with ease, supporting both blocks and shortcodes.
Showcase GitHub repositories in a card-like grid, highlighting your favorite GitHub projects, or showcasing your own. Depending on the permissions of your GitHub token, this works for private repos.
Highlight premium or third-party plugins not listed on WordPress.org. For example, you’d like to feature a popular pro plugin. Simply fill in the plugin details, reference it by slug, and display it in a beautiful card.
Display plugin screenshots from a WordPress.org plugin in a responsive card with carousel and lightbox suppport.
Display a list of all WordPress.org plugins installed on your site, which is great for showing support and recognition towards plugin authors. This is perfect for About pages or “how it’s made” posts/pages.
Display plugins or themes from WordPress.org based on a query, for example, only showing plugins by your .org username, where you’re able to curate a list of plugins you contribute to in a beautiful card grid.
Show off your WordPress.org profile badges, which is perfect for team pages, profile pages, and about pages. Everyone loves flair.
Keep track of your own WordPress.org plugins/themes, with a convenient dashboard widget and friendly admin options allowing you to enter watched WordPress.org assets.
