Jeremy Herve

This plugin allows you to use the <code>jeherve_post_embed</code> shortcode to embed posts from your site or others’ anywhere on your site.
When creating the shortcode, you can use any of the 20 shortcode parameters to make sure the embed will include the posts you want to display, and will look the way you want it to look.
Important: You can only pull posts from 3 different types of sites:
<ul>
<li>WordPress.com sites.</li>
<li>Sites using the <a href="http://jetpack.me" rel="nofollow ugc">Jetpack</a> plugin, with the JSON API module.</li>
<li>Sites using the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api/" rel="ugc">REST API</a> plugin, by adding <code>wpapi="true"</code> to your shortcode parameters.</li>
</ul>

REST API Post Embeds

Embed posts from your site or others' into your posts and pages.

The <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jetpack/" rel="ugc">Jetpack</a> plugin by Automattic does something sneaky: it auto-activates new Jetpack modules. Instead of allowing you to opt in to new modules, Jetpack cheerfully activates them without your permission. These modules can change how your site works and looks.
Manual Control puts a stop to that unwanted behavior. It prevents auto-activation of new Jetpack modules.

Manual Control for Jetpack

Jetpack auto-activates new modules, without asking your permission. This plugin stops that.
