Now Reading Redux is a resurrection of the <a href="http://heliologue.com/" title="Now Reading Reloaded" rel="nofollow ugc">Now Reading Reloaded project by Ben Gunnink</a> 5.1.3.2 codebase, which was itself a fork/re-enlivening of <a href="http://robm.me.uk/projects/plugins/wordpress/now-reading/" title="Original Now Reading Plugin" rel="nofollow ugc">Rob Miller’s original Now Reading plugin</a>. It was forked from Rob’s code as of 4.4.4svn, in order to update its interface to work with WordPress 2.7 and above.
With NRR, you can manage a library of your current books, as well as historical and planned books.
NRR depends on jQuery and assumes it already loaded by WP or your theme. Please use a sufficiently recent version, say 1.4 or newer, preferably the latest. The graph is generated using <a href="http://xaviershay.github.com/tufte-graph/" title="TufteGraph" rel="nofollow ugc">TufteGraph</a> which depends on <a href="http://raphaeljs.com/" title="Rapha?l" rel="nofollow ugc">Rapha?l</a>. All necessary files are included, no additional libraries necessary (beyond jQuery).

<h3>Known Issues</h3>
<ul>
<li>When js-minify is enabled by an optimization plugin, the javascript files used by the TafteGraph/Rapha?l may get corrupted. This issue is known to exist in W3 Total Cache (tested version 0.9.2.4). The only known workaround at this point is to disable js-minify from the Minify settings. CSS and HTML minification can still be enabled as well as compression.</li>
</ul>

This is a “set it and forget it” widget which allows you to display shelves and reading progress from your Goodreads profile. You can add multiple widgets and configure them individually to show multiple shelves.
Some configuration options:
<ul>
<li>Large/small cover images</li>
<li>Message to display if shelf is empty</li>
<li>Sort books by reading progress, date updated, shelf position, author, title, etc.</li>
<li>Number of books to display</li>
<li>Display your rating</li>
<li>Show first line of your Goodreads review (intended for quick notes such as “reading this together with Alice”, “recommended by Bob”, links to reviews, or whatever else strikes you fancy)</li>
<li>Show reading progress bar, progress text (no bar) or don’t show progress at all</li>
<li>Display time since last update (e.g. “2 days ago”)</li>
<li>Custom strings for time since last update (e.g. for quick and easy translating, or to change “2 days ago” to “2 floobargles since last update”)</li>
</ul>
Almost all HTML elements have dedicated CSS classes to allow you to easily override the style. The widget looks OK on the most popular WordPress themes.
Requires PHP 5.4 or later (PHP 7 supported).
The source is hosted on <a href="https://github.com/cmeeren/gr-progress" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub</a>.
