Overview

About this plugin

The plugin adds shortcodes that transform mtg card names and decks to provide a mouseover image. For cards use the [mtg_card][/mtg_card] shortcode (or the shortened version [c][/c]). org.

Hovering over the link will show the card’s image in a tooltip.

A similar tag can be used to quickly create deck listings: [mtg_deck][/mtg_deck] (or the shortened version [d][/d]). A deck listing should contain a list of cards and categories. All cards have a number before their name.

All other lines are interpreted as category names. Do not include card numbers on the category name lines, they will automatically be computed and displayed by the plugin. A short example follows.

The default style for displaying decks is a card listing with each card having a mouseover tooltip. This style can be changed to an embedded view, where the listing has a card image to the right of the deck. This can be toggled in the plugin settings for all decks, or specifically for a deck by setting the style attribute to the tag, as can be seen below.

[d title="Really Small Deck" style="embedded"] Creatures 2 Bloodbraid Elf 4 Grizzly Bears

Spells 4 Lightning Bolt

Sideboard 4 Cultivate [/d]

The screenshot section includes an image of the above deck listing.

Embedded Card Display: Individual card shortcodes also support the embedded style, displaying the card image inline instead of as a tooltip:

[card style="embedded"]Lightning Bolt[/card] [c style="embedded"]Tarmogoyf (FUT) 153[/c]

Arena Format Support: You can now paste deck lists directly from MTG Arena (or other compatible exports – like Moxfield) with set codes and collector numbers:

[deck] 4 Lightning Bolt (M10) 146 4 Mountain (FIN) 2 Snapcaster Mage [/deck]

The plugin will display only the card name and link to the specific printing when set code and number are provided. Set codes are case-insensitive. This format also works with the [card] shortcode: [card]Lightning Bolt (M10) 146[/card]
