A simple WordPress plugin that adds a gist shortcode for getting a single Gist and the files within. It uses the Gist V3 API. Has the option for authentication via Personal Access Token.
Usage 
Get a Gist using a WordPress shortcode: <code>[gist id=00000000 file=file-name.php]</code>
The Gist will return as plain text. I recommend using WordPress plugin Syntaxhighlighter Evolved to highlight the Gist. See below for details.
Visit [Get Gist on Github](http://https://github.com/kopepasah/get-gist “Get Gist”) for more options and information.

James Robinson

A simple plugin that enables a shortcode for embedding Gist code in WordPress.
The shortcode has two attributes, the Gist source URL and, optionally, the height of the embedded code window.
<pre><code>[gist src="" height=""]
</code></pre>
The Gist <code>src</code> attribute must be the embed URL, for example: https://gist.github.com/imaginarymedia/316a29936e5e7d709665.js
The Gist <code>height</code> attribute is optional and can be any value with a valid CSS unit measure: em, %, px, vh, etc. It will apply a max-height to the gist.
The plugin also creates UI buttons for both the visual and text editors.
