<p>Adds a summary of the current WordPress market coverage to your dashboard!</p>
<p>Basically screen scraping from the <a href="https://w3techs.com/technologies/details/cm-wordpress/all/all" title="W3Techs" rel="nofollow ugc">W3Techs</a> website (don’t panic W3Techs, I’m caching the data – your website performance is safe!), this will display what percentage of websites (in total or that use CMS) are currently powered by WordPress. There are even shortcodes so that you can this information into your posts as well!</p>
<p>Now you can keep an eye on how close to world (aka internet) domination WordPress is achieving .</p>

<p>World Domination is a community plugin that follows both WordPress and WordPress VIP coding standards.</p>
<p>Iconography is courtesy of the very talented <a href="https://www.fiverr.com/jankirathore" rel="nofollow ugc">Janki Rathod</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Please visit the <a href="https://github.com/dartiss/world-domination" title="Github" rel="nofollow ugc">Github page</a> for the latest code development, planned enhancements and known issues</strong></p>
<h3>Using the shortcodes</h3>
<p>There are two shortcodes <code>[wp_total_market]</code> and <code>[wp_cms_market]</code>. Simply add these, wherever you wish within a post or page, to display the latest total or CMS market share data.</p>
<p>In both cases, the shortcode will be replaced by the relevant marketshare figure (WordPress as a proportion of all websites and of all CMS usage). Both will be shown in the format of xx.x%, with xx.x being the relevant percentage.</p>
<h3>Toggling the dashboard image</h3>
<p>You can toggle the dashboard image on and off by</p>
<ol>
<li>Head to Settings -> General</li>
<li>Scroll down to the option named “Enable World Domination image”</li>
<li>Tick or untick the box next to it</li>
<li>Press the “Save Changes” button to update.</li>
</ol>
