A WordPress plugin to embed OneDrive items into blog posts. The plugin includes a Gutenberg Block and a [onedrive] shortcode for users to paste their shared OneDrive link for embedding.
Optionally, if you create an Azure app, your users can login to OneDrive directly to select a file for embedding all-at-once. For configuration details, read the following wiki article: https://github.com/hwdsb/onedrive/wiki/File-Picker-Set-Up
There are two ways to use the plugin:
- Use the provided OneDrive block
- Use the shortcode method
To use:
- Add the OneDrive block to the block editor.
- Find the shareable link to your OneDrive item by reading the following guide.
- Paste the link into the block.
- For OneDrive Personal users, if you are embedding an audio, image or video file, select the correct Type from the sidebar. This option will not work for SharePoint / Microsoft 365 users.
- That's it!
If your site administrator has set up the File Picker, steps 2 and 3 can be skipped by clicking on the Or Select From Drive button inside the OneDrive block. This will allow you to login to your OneDrive to select a file for embedding.
Note: If you are using OneDrive for SharePoint / Microsoft 365, you can only directly embed Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Visio files due to restrictions.
The shortcode method is useful for those still using the Classic Editor, but can also be used with the Block Editor using the Shortcode block if desired.
