Historical Charts for Goldback

描述

Historical Charts for Goldback is a versatile plugin that fetches and displays Goldback and UPMA exchange rate data from a remote XML API. It provides multiple shortcode-driven display options:
* Quote Card ([gbcharts_quote_card rate=”GB|UPMA|GOLD|SILVER”])
* A styled card showing the latest value, percentage gain/loss, and 1-week, 1-month, and 52-week highs and lows.
* Quote + Chart Combo ([gbcharts_quote_combo rate=”GB|UPMA|GOLD|SILVER”])
* Combines the quote card with an interactive line chart (1W, 1M, 1Y filters).
* Full-Width Chart ([gbcharts_graph_chart rate=”GB|UPMA|GOLD|SILVER”])
* A standalone Chart.js graph with time-range buttons (1W, 1M, 6M, 1Y, 5Y, ALL).
* Historical Data Table ([gbcharts_data_table rate=”GB|UPMA|GOLD|SILVER”])
* A paginated table of date, value, gain, and loss (default 20 rows per page; user-selectable 20, 50, 100, 365). Supports smooth scroll to top on page change.
* Everything is styled to match seamlessly with WordPress themes, and no manual data imports are required—updates pull directly from the live API.
