Install and activate the plugin. 2. Create an application on the [Pocket Developers website](http://getpocket.com/developer/apps/new), enter your Consumer Key into the Pocket WP settings page and click Save Changes to start the authorization process. 3. Click the Get Access Key link to complete the authorization. #### Shortcode The shortcode embeds a list of Pocket links into a page or post. The basic shortcode is `[pocket_links]` and it accepts some optional arguments: ``` count: [any number] // How many links to display. Default is all. excerpt: yes, no // Whether or not to display the excerpt extracted by Pocket. Default is yes. tag: [any one of your Pocket tags] // Choose to show links from one tag. Supports one tag only. Default is all links, tagged or untagged. credit: yes, no // Choose to add author credit. Default is to not show credit links. tag_list: yes, no // Whether or not to show a list of tags after each link. ``` #### Widget The Widget is available to drag and drop into any widgetized sidebars. It has some options: ``` title // the title for the widget count // the number of links to show. Default is 5 tag: [any of your Pocket tags] // Choose to show links from one tag. Currently supports one tag only. Default is all links, tagged or untagged. author credit: yes, no // Choose to give author credit. Default is to not show credit links. ``` ## Screenshots * [[ * Pocket WordPress settings page. * [[ * Screenshot of the shortcode as it displays in a page. * [[ * Screenshot of the shortcode in the editor. * [[ * Screenshot of the widget settings box. * [[ * Screenshot of the widget as it displays in a sidebar. ## Installation 1.
