For most WordPress developers, Github is probably one of the favorite tools to share code snippets and host their projects. If you use Github a lot and would like to show off your recent GIthub activities, WP Github Activty plugin will be very handy. Here’s an example:
There are two ways to display the activity feed, either via shortcode or widget. To display the activity feed in your post or page, you may use [github_activity username="yourusername"]. The shortcode also accepts exclude and count parameters which are very useful if you’d like to exclude any repository and define number of recent activities to be displayed.
If you want to display the activity feed in any widget location, simply drag the Github Activity widget to any widget location. The widget also comes with a simple settings panel that need to be configured.
Being a free plugin, support for this plugin is not provided. However, should you find any bug and would like to recommadations for improvement, please contact the plugin author or posting it in the plugin’s Github page.
