Activity Sparks

FAQ

Can I use it if I don’t want to call a widget in the sidebar?

Basic template tag support was added in v0.3. The following code checks for plugin activation and renders with the default settings.

    <?php if(function_exists('activitysparks')) {
        activitysparks();   
    } ?>

To change the default settings you must pass an array of the parameters you wish to alter. These are the available parameters and valid values

• dataset = ‚posts‘, ‚comments‘, ‚both‘ or ‚legend‘
• width_px = positive integer
• height_px = positive integer
• period = 1, 7, 14, 30, etc. (number of days to group by)
• ticks = positive integer (number of periods to display)
• chma = 0 or positive integer (chart margin px)
• bkgrnd = 6 character hex value (e.g. FFFFFF) or ‚NONE‘ for transparency
• posts_color = 6 character hex value (e.g 4D89F9)
• comments_color = 6 character hex value (e.g FF9900)

An example of how to implement parameters is as follows:

    <?php if(function_exists('activitysparks')) {
        activitysparks(array('dataset'=>'legend','width_px'=>480,bkgrnd=>'NONE'));  
    } ?>

Caching is not available for the template tag implementation.
