12 This plugin adds a shortcode that displays a video from <a href="https://asciinema.org">asciinema.org</a>.

14 == Description ==
15
16 danixland-asciinema is a plugin that adds a new shortcode to be used whenever you want to embed a video from asciinema.org.
17
18 As stated on their website, asciinema (formerly ascii.io) is a free and open source solution for recording terminal sessions and sharing them on the web.
19 It aims to be a "go to" place for every command-line user who wants to share their skills with others. Or putting it differently, it's a place to show off your geekiness.
20
21 I decided to make this plugin because I was looking for a good and easy way to share a video from asciinema and I'm too lazy to dwelve into oEmbed :-D
22

34 == Frequently Asked Questions ==
35
36 = What are the options that I can use with the shortcode? =
37
38 The most important option is the "video" which you can assign to the number of the video you want to embed, let's say you want to embed `https://asciinema.org/a/14829` the shortcode whould be `[asciinema video=14829]`
39 The full list of options is:
40
41 * video
42 * time
43 * autoplay
44 * loop
45 * speed
46 * theme
47
48 You can read about their usage [on the website](https://asciinema.org/docs/embedding).
49
50 = I'm stuck with your plugin and don't seem to be able to customize it/make it work, can you help me? =
51
52 Of course, you can ask for help on [the forums](http://wordpress.org/support/) or write a comment on the main article for this plugin on [my site](http://danixland.net/?p=3525), I'll reply ASAP ;)
53
54 = I'd like this plugin to be translated in my language, can you do this for me? =
55
56 This plugin doesn't output any text other than the video code, so it doesn't provide/need a translation ;)
