About this plugin

Live converter for ≈14k crypto, fiat and commodity symbols: Gutenberg block, shortcode, themes and no API key.

📌 Description

Crypto Converter Widget adds a lightweight, customizable converter to WordPress. Use it as a Gutenberg block, shortcode, or widget-area embed to show live crypto, fiat, token, blockchain, and commodity conversion on posts, pages, and sidebars.

The plugin is built around a browser-native Web Component, so the public markup stays simple and the interface remains easy to customize from WordPress. Standard usage does not require API keys or server-side setup.

It supports ≈14k crypto symbols plus fiat and commodity entries. You can configure base and quote assets, amount, decimal precision, locale, tax/fee adjustment, fiat symbols, light/dark/auto themes, rounded corners, borders, shadows, custom colors, and gradients.

Questions

Do I need an API key?

No. Standard WordPress usage works without an API key.

How do I add the converter to a page?

Use the “Crypto Converter ⚡ Widget” Gutenberg block, or paste the shortcode into any shortcode-enabled area:

[crypto-converter-widget base="BTC" quote="USD" amount="1"]

Can I use it without the Gutenberg block?

Yes. The shortcode works in posts, pages, classic editor content, widget areas, and site-editor template parts that support shortcodes.

Which assets can I use?

Use symbol-based values such as BTC, ETH, USD, EUR, or XAU. The widget supports ≈14k crypto symbols plus fiat and commodity entries.

Can I customize the design?

Yes. You can use light, dark, or auto theme mode, rounded corners, border, shadow, custom background color, and CSS gradients.

Can I control locale, decimals, and fees?

Yes. The widget supports locale-aware formatting, decimal precision, fiat symbol display, and an optional tax/fee percentage adjustment.

How do I make a fixed-width converter?

Wrap the block or shortcode in a container with a fixed width. Keep the width at least 320px for a usable layout.

Does the plugin do cryptojacking or mining?

No. The plugin renders a currency converter widget only.
