Descrição
Tarot Card Oracle helps you publish interactive readings on your WordPress site using your own deck artwork, your own spreads, and your own interpretations.

* Cards with your own images and text
* Descriptions that connect one card, one position, and one reading
Premium features
* Validation wizard to spot missing links and configuration problems

How to
Tarot Card Oracle is built from four core parts
1. Readings, the spread definitions
2. Positions, the slots inside a reading
3. Cards, your deck
4. Descriptions, the meaning of one card in one position for one reading
If something feels missing on the front end, check this order
* Positions are assigned to the Reading
* Cards are assigned to the Reading
* Descriptions are linked to both a Card and a Position
Admin menus
* Dashboard, overview and embed tools
* Readings, define spreads
* Positions, define and assign positions
* Cards, define cards and assign to readings
* Descriptions, define meanings per card and per position
* Demo Data, install sample reading and sample media
* Wizard, create a reading framework quickly
* Status, system info and recent logs
* Orders (Premium), payment enabled reading orders
* Validation (Premium), find and fix configuration gaps

How do I display a reading on my site
-
Use the Gutenberg block or copy a shortcode from Card Oracle Dashboard.
You can embed by slug using the name attribute, or by ID. -
Can I use reading names instead of IDs in shortcodes
-
Yes. As of version 1.1.9, you can use reading slugs with the name attribute.
The plugin looks for a slug match first, then falls back to the reading title. -
How does the shuffle cards feature work

Version 1.1.9 includes a shuffle button that animates the deck and randomizes card order before you select cards.
You can shuffle as many times as you want before drawing. -
How does the email system report work

On the Status tab, click Email system report.
The plugin will try to open your email client with a pre filled message to support@chillichalli.com.
If your email client does not open, it falls back to a copy method. -
Where are settings located
-
WordPress Admin, then Settings, then Card Oracle.
You can configure RSS feed checking, cache duration, debug logging, default deck, and default draw count. -
Premium includes payment enabled readings.
If you use payments, ensure you are on the latest Premium version and review the Payment Provider settings screen, as provider availability depends on your Premium build.
