Description
Pretty basic plugin. Install the plugin & to use simply add the shortcode (example below) to any Page or Post. If your web host allows the functions cURL or file_get_contents it will pull in the raw HTML from the url given in the shortcode. No setup, no options.
EXAMPLE USE:
[preVU url=”http://pre.vu/clients/mhotc/”]
or, if you’re feeling nice and want to add the “Powered by preVU” at the bottom:
[preVU url=”http://pre.vu/clients/mhotc/” poweredby=TRUE]
