Thingiverse Shortcode Plugin
Instead of copy-pasting info about a Thingiverse object into your posts, embed them with a simple [thingiverse] shortcode.
Want to display your most recently uploaded, created, or liked objects? You can do that, too, with the Thingiverse Stream widget!
Thing Embedding
For example, to embed thing:1842 enter this in a post or page:
[thingiverse thing=1842]
It is that simple.
Stream Embedding
The Thingiverse Stream widget allows you to embed Thingiverse streams into your sidebars. To use it, simply drag-and-drop the Thingiverse Stream widget to a sidebar and configure it.
There are two types of streams: Global and User. User streams require you to specify a Thingiverse username.
