<p>fishdan Jsonmaker lets administrators curate a nested tree of links directly on the front end. Drop the <code>[jsonmaker]</code> shortcode onto a page, expand nodes to add children, rename or remove items inline, and fetch any branch at <code>/json/<slug>.json</code>.</p>
<p><strong>Highlights</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Inline “Add”, “Edit”, and “Delete” controls for administrators (capability <code>jsonmaker_manage</code>).</li>
<li>Clean JSON endpoint for each node (<code>/json/<slug>.json</code>).</li>
<li>Store either URLs or plain text values; an empty value keeps a node as a container.</li>
<li>All data persists in a single WordPress option—no custom tables.</li>
</ul>
