QR Code Generator Plugin

Use this qr code wordpress plugin to create a qr code on any site of your WordPress installation. Content can be any text or the current URL of the site where it is embeded.

How to use it:

• Use the shortcode [qrcode] within your site to generate a qr code including the URL of the current site

• Use the fullowing short code to generate a indivdual qr code with any text content:

  [qrcode content=”CONTENT” size=”120″ alt=”ALT_TEXT” class=”CLASS_NAME”]

  • It`s not neccessary to give any parameters!

  • Possible parameters are: alt, size, class, credit, shadow

  • If you don`t give any parameter like ‘alt’ or ‘size’, the standard parameters are:
    alt = “Scan the QR Code”
    size = 120
    class=””
    credit = true
    shadow = true

• The credit option gives a really small but nice looking image link on bottom of the qrcode. If you don´t like it or don´t want to give me any credits you can deactivate it with ‘credit = false’. But i will be glad if you let that small link where it is :D’
