<p>Croquet Metaverse Web Showcase is a new WordPress block which allows people to embed a multiuser, collaborative, 3D space into a WordPress site. A WordPress author can drag images, videos, and PDF files into the block to add their content into the virtual 3D space.</p>

<p>To install the plugin, search for “Croquet Web Showcase” from your WordPress plugin installation page.</p>
<p>You will need a Multisynq API Key to use the plugin. You can create a key for free at <a href="https://multisynq.io/coder" rel="nofollow ugc">multisynq.io/coder</a>.<br />
Your API key will look something like this: <code>25kkttz5HqJ4mDycjupJA5eiF2CMhdvIgexample</code> If you already have an installation with an earlier version, you have to update the API Key.</p>
<p>While writing a new Post or Page, you can add a Croquet Metaverse Web Showcase block in the block editor, as shown in the first screenshot.</p>
<p>Open the sidebar settings for the Web Showcase block by clicking on the the gear icon at the top right corner of your editing page and clicking on the block. In the sidebar settings, you can paste your Multisynq API Key into the API Key text field.</p>
<p>By default, a new Web Showcase block contains two default assets. If you preview your Post or Page, you can see a 3D art gallery space with those two images.</p>
<p>Once you have verified that this works, you can remove the default contents within the Web Showcase block by pressing the “X” button on each row. You can drag your own image, video, and PDF assets into the block to add them. You can rearrange them in the block editor, and they will change positions in the 3D gallery.</p>

<p>“Metaverse ID” for WordPress is based on the work of the currently retired swslr project. The plugin aims to allow its users to place widgets into the sidebars of their WordPress blogs that let them show of their profiles around the Metaverse.</p>
<p>Supported Metaverses</p>
<ul>
<li>Champions Online</li>
<li>EVE Online</li>

<p>Some Metaverses (such as EVE) require some extra info in order for Metaverse ID to access the data. A menu for Metaverse ID will be added to the <em>Settings</em> menu if one of the supported Metaverses requires configuration.</p>
<p>If you try to update a Metaverse ID and you repeatedly get a message to the effect that the update failed, check to make sure that the Metaverse has been correctly configured!</p>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>PHP5 (I’m using features not present in PHP4, WordPress runs fine on PHP5, so upgrade already!)</li>
<li>DOMDocument (required for Second Life, LOTRO, Champions Online)</li>
<li>SimpleXML (required for WoW, Metaplace, EVE)</li>
<li>JSON decode support (required for Free Realms)</li>
</ul>
