Shortcode Use
The shortcode can be added to any page or post and can be configured in an identical fashion to the

Available Filters
For more capable/adventurous developers there are a number of hooks that allow you to change the way the
plugin functions without altering its code. This means you get to upgrade in the future without worrying
about breaking any changes you may have made.
wow-armory-character-template
Allows you to specify an alternate template file to use to display your profile. Defaults to
view-wow-armory-character.php
function my_function_name($file_path) { // e.g. return realpath(__FILE__) . '/view-wow-armory-character.php' return "THE_PATH_TO_YOUR_TEMPLATE_FILE";
}
add_filter('wow-armory-character-template','my_function_name');
wow-armory-character-display
Your profile once the template has been processed. It may be quicker to alter the display at runtime rather
than duplicate the template when making only minor changes. As well as the output that will be displayed
the Character data as retireved from the Community API is also passed. This should allow you to make any changes
you need.
function my_function_name($output, $character_data) { // Do something to the $output, perhaps using the $character_data return $output;
}
add_filter('wow-armory-character-display','my_function_name');
wow-armory-character-css
Allows you to specify an alternate stylesheet. This is the replacement for the tickbox provided in the administration
screen. You should now consider that option as deprecated and it will be removed in a future release.
The rationale behind this is that if you’re overriding the css completely you will have access to your theme to be able
to add this hook.
function my_function_name($file_path) { // e.g. return realpath(__FILE__) . '/wowcss.css' return "THE_PATH_TO_YOUR_CSS_FILE";
}
add_filter('wow-armory-character-css','my_function_name');
