What’s New in Version 2.0.0

• Block Editor support : new “Embed Button” block, equivalent to the [init_embed_code] shortcode, with a live editor preview — optional, the shortcode still works exactly as before
• Abilities API support (WordPress 6.9+) : new read-only init-embed-posts/get-embed-data ability for post/product embed data — optional and fully backward-compatible on older WordPress versions
• Requires at least raised from 5.5 to 6.9 to support the Abilities API. Requires PHP remains 7.4

See full details in the changelog below.

Abilities API (WordPress 6.9+)

On WordPress 6.9 and above, Init Embed Posts registers one read-only ability under the init-embed-posts category:

• init-embed-posts/get-embed-data — returns embed data (title, excerpt, thumbnail, images, and — for WooCommerce products — price) for a published post or product, given an id and type ( post or product )

This is discoverable and executable via PHP ( wp_get_abilities() ), and — for sites that opt into exposing it — the wp-abilities/v1 REST namespace, using the exact same data as the REST endpoints below. This integration is fully optional: on WordPress versions older than 6.9, it silently does nothing and the rest of the plugin is unaffected.

Filters for Developers

These filters give you full control over how data is rendered and returned.

JS config override (highest priority):

• window.InitPluginSuiteEmbedPostsConfig Set this object before the page renders (e.g. via wp_add_inline_script in a theme) to override embed UI settings in JS, taking priority over the plugin’s Settings page. Currently supports: theme – "light" , "dark" , or "auto" . Overrides the “Default embed theme” setting for the embed code generator button/modal.

Example: window.InitPluginSuiteEmbedPostsConfig = { theme: ‘dark’ };

REST response filters:

• init_plugin_suite_embed_posts_rest_response Modify REST API response for posts.
• init_plugin_suite_embed_products_rest_response Modify REST API response for Woo products.
• init_plugin_suite_embed_posts_view_count_keys Customize the list of post meta keys used to detect view count. Supports array of meta keys, ordered by priority.
• init_plugin_suite_embed_posts_gallery_limit Override the gallery image limit (defaults to the Settings page value, 1–10) used for both post and product embeds.

Excerpt filters:

• init_plugin_suite_embed_posts_excerpt Customize excerpt for posts.
• init_plugin_suite_embed_products_excerpt Customize excerpt for products.

Image control:

• init_plugin_suite_embed_posts_images Filter image list for embedded post.
• init_plugin_suite_embed_products_images Filter image list for embedded product.
• init_plugin_suite_embed_posts_extracted_images Filter raw image URLs extracted from post content.

Favicon:

• init_plugin_suite_embed_posts_favicon_url Override favicon for posts.
• init_plugin_suite_embed_products_favicon_url Override favicon for products.

HTML output filters:

• init_plugin_suite_embed_posts_shortcode_html Customize HTML output of the [init_embed_code] shortcode. Allows complete control over button markup, styling, and attributes.

Auto-insert locations:

• init_embed_insert_locations Customize or filter valid auto-insert positions (e.g., after title, before content, etc).
