Upload your`. egf` file to the Media Library, copy its URL, and drop the shortcode — the reader renders in-place with built-in pause, score, about, and settings panels. The reader is fully client-side: once rendered it loads the `.egf` package, unpacks it, and plays the game without making any third-party calls. This plugin is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the authors of the EGF (Educational Game Format) specification or egf-format.org. “EGF” refers to the open file format the reader supports. #### Features * Simple `[egf_reader]` shortcode — no block editor required. * Allows uploading `.egf` files to the WordPress Media Library. * Built-in player UI: pause, score tracking, about-the-game, and audio/theme settings. * Interface available in 9 languages (English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Arabic, Hindi, Urdu, Russian) with automatic browser-language detection. * Light and dark themes. * Works on any theme — the reader is self-contained and style-scoped. #### Shortcode parameters * `game` _(required)_ — URL of the `.egf` game file to load. * `lang` _(optional, default: `auto`)_ — interface language. Use `auto` to pick the best language from the visitor’s browser, or force one: `en`, `fr`, `es`,` pt`, `zh`, `ar`, `hi`, `ur`, `ru`. * `theme` _(optional, default: `light`)_ — `light` or `dark`. * `nocache` _(optional, default: `1`)_ — set to `0` to allow the browser to cache the `.egf` package. #### Example ``` [egf_reader game="https://your-site.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/my-game.egf" lang="auto" theme="light"] ``` ## Installation 1. Upload the `shakvaro-egf-reader-shortcode` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress. 3. Upload an `.egf` file to your **Media Library** and copy its URL. 4. Insert the shortcode into any post or page: [egf_reader game=”https://your-site. com/wp-content/uploads/game.egf”] ## FAQ ### What is an EGF file? EGF (Educational Game Format) 1.1 is an open package format for interactive games. An `.egf` file is a zipped bundle containing the game’s scenes, assets, and metadata. ### Does the plugin send data to any external service? No. The reader runs entirely in the visitor’s browser and loads the `.egf` file from your own server (or wherever you host it). No analytics, tracking, or third- party requests are made by the plugin. ### The shortcode shows “missing game attribute” — why? The `game` attribute is required and must point to the URL of your `.egf` file. Example: [egf_reader game=”https://your-site.com/wp-content/uploads/game.egf”] ### WordPress won’t let me upload my .egf file. Activating the plugin whitelists the `.egf` extension in the Media Library. If you still see a “Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons” error, your host may have additional restrictions — check with your hosting provider. ### Can I embed more than one game on the same page? Yes. Each shortcode instance gets its own unique container and player state. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Shakvaro EGF Reader Shortcode” adalah perisian sumber terbuka.
