## Description

[Datawrapper](https://www.datawrapper.de/) is an online tool with which you can 
create interactive and responsive charts, maps, and tables. **Datawrapper is free
to use**, so you can create and publish unlimited visualizationas, download them
as PNGs and collaborate in teams. The [paid plan](https://www.datawrapper.de/pricing/)
is the right choice if you need a custom design, or PDF and SVG export.

The **Datawrapper oEmbed** plugin lets you paste Datawrapper URLs to embed Datawrapper
visualizations in WordPress.com and WordPress.org websites. [Learn more in the Datawrapper Academy](https://academy.datawrapper.de/article/203-how-to-embed-charts-in-wordpress).

## FAQ

### What does this plugin enable me to do?

Once you’ve installed this plugin, you can paste Datawrapper chart URLs into your
WordPress articles/sites and they will turn into beautiful responsive and interactive
embeds.

### How does it work?

To place a Datawrapper chart, map or table into your WordPress article, simple paste
its URL (e.g. [https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/8Wwvx/](https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/8Wwvx/)).
Your visualization will appear and will be interactive when you publish or preview
the article.

For a detailed how-to with images, visit the Datawrapper Academy article **[“How to embed charts in WordPress articles”](https://academy.datawrapper.de/article/203-how-to-embed-charts-in-wordpress)**.

### Do I need a Datawrapper account to use this plugin?

You can embed any Datawrapper charts you find, but to publish new charts, maps, 
or tables you need to create a free account. If you want to [try out Datawrapper](https://app.datawrapper.de/chart/create),
you can do so without signing up.

### Can I use this plugin if I use the free version of Datawrapper?

Yes. This plugin will work no matter if you use Datawrapper for free or with a paid
plan.

### Why should I embed my Datawrapper visualizations instead of using an image?

There are a few advantages:
 * Datawrapper visualizations are responsive – images
are not. “Responsive” means that the visualization adjusts to the size of your device.
You can look at a Datawrapper chart, map or table on a small mobile phone or on 
a big laptop screen – in any case, text elements like axis labels or descriptions
will be nicely readable. * Your readers can hover over elements e.g. in your maps
or line charts to see the underlying values. * In Datawrapper visualizations, you
can link to a data source or let users download the data with a click. Both wouldn’t
be possible with an image.
