Blocks for BookWyrm

Description

This plugin adds two blocks to pull data from BookWyrm and to display it on your WordPress site:

  • Recently Read books
  • Currently Reading books

External Services

This plugin makes API calls to the user-configued BookWyrm instance. It sends the user-configured username to:

  • Retrieve a list of recently read or currently reading books (including author name, book title, and book ISBN).

It relies on public endpoints and only displays already public information.

Each BookWyrm instance configures its own privacy policy based on the BookWyrm software’s privacy controls. This is the Privacy Policy for the BookWyrm.social instance.

To display book covers, the plugin calls the OpenLibrary.org API. The only data sent to OpenLibrary is an ISBN. No user information is sent. As a project of Archive.org, OpenLibrary.org’s API is governed by the Archive.org Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
