The ClearPoint Content Generator is a Google Chrome extension. It helps you generate shortcodes and widgets to reference information from your ClearPoint account on a WordPress Community Dashboard.


Prerequisites

ClearPoint will need to send you a zip file for the Content Generator. Click here to request this file if we have not already sent it to you.

Install the extension

  • Unzip the file and save it to your desktop

  • Open Google Chrome and go to the URL chrome://extensions

  • Make sure that Developer Mode is enabled

  • Click on Load Unpacked

  • A file browser window will appear

  • Select the Chrome-Plugin-master folder

  • Click Select

  • The extension will appear at the top of the list.

  • You will see the ClearPoint chart icon appear to the right of the URL bar to indicate that the extension was properly installed.

  • You can click on this icon to open the extension

Important: the Content Generator is currently not available in the Chrome Web Store. This means that when your browser is fully closed and reopened, Chrome will ask if you want to disable the developer mode extension. Simply click the X to continue using the generator.
