Embed GitHub Gists into WordPress.
You can find Embed GitHub Gist at the WordPress Plugin Directory.
Embed GitHub Gists into WordPress. Provides a shortcode for posts and pages but also has the ability to embed by hand in the event that a Gist needs to be embedded somewhere in the page that does not pass through the shortcode filters.
Examples:
[gist id=546764]
[gist id=546764 file=file.txt]
[gist id=546764 file=file.txt bump=1]
[gist]http://gist.github.com/546764[/gist]
Cache is implemented with the Transients API to minimize delay on loading content. Default TTL (time to live) is 86400 seconds or one day.
If json_decode
is available, the HTML markup for the source code will be
injected into the post inline. This will ensure that the code is available to
spiders and feed readers.
If json_decode
is not available, the standard GitHub Gist embed script
(JavaScript) is included and the raw content will be added into a NOSCRIPT
section wrapped as follows:
<noscript>
<div class="embed-github-gist-source">
<code>
<pre>raw code here</pre>
</code >
</div>
</noscript>

To break the cache again later, change to a new unique bump value:
[gist id=546764 bump=2]

[gist id=546764 ttl=3600]

<?php echo embed_github_gist(546764); ?>
