Werk aan de Muur Plugin

“Werk aan de Muur” / “Art Heroes” is an online marketplace for print on demand wall art. Artists and photographers can upload their images, set their commissions, and instantly sell custom art prints to customers from across Europe.

With this plugin, you can easily integrate your “Werk aan de Muur” or “Art Heroes” shop into your own WordPress site. After installation, there are two tags you can use to add a list of artworks to a page or post. Note that all shortcodes / tags are available in two variants, wadm_xxx and artheroes_xxx. The older omp_xxx is still supported for backwards compatibility, but you shouln’t use it anymore. Functionally they’re exactly the same, they’re just aliases for eachother.

All artworks

[wadm_artlist] / `[artheroes_artlist]` / `[omp_artlist]` (old alias, don't use this anymore) 

This tag prints a paginated list of your artworks. The output can be customized with a few attributes:

• limit: Number of artworks per page. Default is 12 artworks. Max. 33 artworks per page.
• columns: Specifiy the number of columns. Defaults to 3 columns.
• order: Set the artwork order. Defaults to order as in shop. Accepted values are date_asc, date_desc, title_asc, title_desc and rating
• medium_id: Show prices of a specific medium. Defaults to the preferences in your shop. Accepted values are:
  • 1: Canvas
  • 2: Framed print
  • 3: Poster / photoprint
  • 4: Alu-dibond
  • 5: Xpozer
  • 8: Wood
  • 11: Steel
  • 12: Wallpaper
  • 13: Acoustic prints
  • 15: Alu-dibond Acryl
  • 16: Seamless wallpaper
  • 17: Round
• size: Show prices of a specific size. Defaults to the preferences in your shop. Accepted values are: small, medium, large and xlarge
• locale: Set the desired locale. Defaults to your shop language. Accepted values are: nl_NL, de_DE, de_AT, de_CH, fr_FR, fr_CH and en_GB

For example, show 20 artworks in 2 columns, ordered by date (descending, newest first) with this tag:

[wadm_artlist limit=20 columns=2 order=date_desc] 

Or a second example, show artworks with small Alu-dibond as default material with this tag:

[wadm_artlist medium_id=4 size=small] 

Specific album

[wadm_album albumid=999] / `[artheroes_album albumid=999]` 

The album tag allows you to print artworks from a specific album. You can find the album id in your artist dashboard. The output can again be customized with the limit, columns and order attributes. The albumid attribute is required. For example:

[wadm_album albumid=999 limit=20 columns=2]

Single artwork

[wadm_artwork artid=999] / `[artheroes_artwork artid=999]` 

Prints a specific artwork. Use the ‘werkcode’ as artid.

Specific locale / website to link to

[wadm_artwork locale=de_AT] / `[wadm_artwork locale=de_AT]` 

If your website has locale support you can redirect the visitor directly to the matching “Werk aan de Muur” or “Art Heroes” website. Currently supported locales are nl_NL, de_DE, fr_FR, de_AT, de_CH, fr_CH and en_GB (english/international).
