External services

This plugin relies on two external services to function. By using the plugin you agree to the terms and privacy policies linked below.

Vunelix (vunelix.com)

What it is and what it is used for: Vunelix is the service operated by the plugin author. It provides the widget rendering API (HTML/CSS/icon templates per widget), domain-based authorization, language JSON files, and the icon/image assets shown in the WordPress admin dashboard (widget previews, country/symbol flags).

What data is sent and when:

  • When a widget is rendered on a frontend page, the browser sends a POST request to https://vunelix.com/embed/render containing the widget slug, the widget settings configured in the admin, and the page URL on which the widget is embedded. The site domain is detected from the standard Origin / Referer headers the browser already sends.
  • When a widget loads, the browser fetches language JSON files from https://vunelix.com/assets/js/lang/.... (Widget CSS is bundled with the plugin and loaded locally — see “Source code” below.)
  • In the WordPress admin dashboard, country flag icons and asset/symbol icons used inside select dropdowns are loaded as <img> tags from https://vunelix.com/assets/icons/... (these change frequently as new symbols/markets are added, so they are served centrally rather than bundled).
  • The admin dashboard also calls https://vunelix.com/api/ to fetch the searchable lists of currencies, stocks, and crypto symbols when the widget settings UI is opened.

No personal user data is collected by the plugin itself.

  • Website: https://vunelix.com
  • Terms of Service: https://vunelix.com/terms
  • Privacy Policy: https://vunelix.com/privacy-policy

FCS API (fcsapi.com)

What it is and what it is used for: FCS API is the upstream market-data provider used by the Vunelix backend to source real-time prices, technical signals, and chart data for crypto, forex, and stock symbols. Widgets receive this data via the Vunelix API and via a WebSocket stream.

What data is sent and when: When a widget connects, a WebSocket connection is opened to the FCS data feed to stream price updates for the symbols configured on the widget. No personal data is sent.

  • Website: https://fcsapi.com
  • Terms of Service: https://fcsapi.com/terms
  • Privacy Policy: https://fcsapi.com/privacy-policy

Source code

All JavaScript shipped with this plugin is provided in human-readable, un-obfuscated form inside the assets/js/ directory of the plugin. Widget CSS is bundled with the plugin under assets/css/widget-runtime/. Admin dashboard CSS lives directly under assets/css/. The world map drawn by the Maps widgets is a plain SVG bundled at assets/images/world-map.svg.

For performance, each widget is also shipped pre-bundled in assets/js/dist/, so a page loads one script instead of roughly eleven separate ES module requests. These bundles are generated directly from the sources in assets/js/ and remain plain, readable JavaScript — they are not minified and not obfuscated; only comments are removed. If assets/js/dist/ is deleted, the plugin automatically falls back to loading the original module sources, so no build step is required to inspect, modify, or run the code.

To regenerate the bundles from source:

cd build && npm install && npm run build

The build scripts live in build/ and use Rollup (to inline imports) followed by Terser (to strip comments). Identifier names are never mangled, so every name in a bundle matches the source that ships beside it. The widget list is read from includes/widgets/, so no file list is duplicated.

FAQ

Do I need an API key?

No. Vunelix uses domain-based authorization. Just verify your website domain at developers.vunelix.com and widgets activate automatically.

Is it really free?

Yes. All 35+ widget types are free with no time limit. Premium plans add features like branding removal, higher symbol limits, and priority support.

Will this slow down my website?

Widgets use lazy loading — JavaScript runs when a widget scrolls into view. CSS is isolated inside Shadow DOM. There are no heavy libraries and no jQuery dependency.

Does it work with the block editor (Gutenberg)?

Yes. In the block editor, add a Shortcode block and paste [vunelix id="12"] into it. The widget renders live on the front end. It also works in the Classic Editor and in any theme’s widget areas.

Does it work with Elementor / Divi / WPBakery?

Yes. The shortcode [vunelix ...] works in any page builder that supports WordPress shortcodes. Just paste it into a text or shortcode block.

Does it work with my theme?

Yes. All widgets render inside Shadow DOM, which means they are completely isolated from your theme’s CSS. They will never break your layout, and your styles will never affect the widget.

Can I use multiple widgets on the same page?

Yes. You can add as many widgets as you want. Each one loads independently.

Can I customize the look and feel?

Yes. Every widget supports:
* Theme: Auto (detect from site), Light, Dark
* Custom colors: Positive, negative, background, text, border — with separate light and dark values
* Transparent background mode

Does it support RTL languages?

Yes. Full RTL layout support for Arabic (العربية), Hebrew (עברית), Farsi (فارسی), and Urdu (اردو) with automatic direction detection.

Can I show a Bitcoin or Ethereum price ticker?

Yes. Use the Ticker, Ticker Tape, or Single Ticker widget and pick any coin — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, or any of the 10,000+ tokens covered. Prices update live over WebSocket.

Can I add a stock ticker to my sidebar?

Yes. Every widget is a shortcode, so it works in any post, page, or sidebar text widget. Add [vunelix widget="ticker-tape" symbols="NASDAQ:AAPL,NASDAQ:MSFT"] and the ticker renders with live prices.

Can I add an economic calendar to my site?

Yes. The Economic Calendar widget lists upcoming GDP, inflation, interest rate decisions and jobs releases with actual, forecast and previous figures, and can be filtered by country and importance.

Can I show a watchlist or market overview?

Yes. The Market Overview widget puts a chart above a watchlist — click any symbol and the chart follows it, with ranges from one day to five years. Stocks, indices, forex and crypto can all sit in the same list.

Can I display live exchange rates?

Yes. Currency Cross Rates shows a live exchange rate matrix between currency pairs, and the Currency Converter converts any amount using real-time rates with a historical chart.

What markets and assets are covered?

  • Crypto — 10,000+ coins and tokens across major exchanges
  • Stocks — 50+ global markets including US, EU, Asia, Middle East
  • Forex — 150+ currency pairs from major exchanges
  • Funds — Mutual funds and ETFs
  • DEX — Decentralized exchange pairs
