Scrollytelling

Scrollytelling turns an idea into a single, scroll-driven web page — animated, cinematic, and fully editable. This plugin lets you drop your published stories into WordPress.

• Block — add the “Scrollytelling Story” block, paste a story URL, and choose how it appears.
• Shortcode — [scrollytelling url="https://my-story.scrollytelling.ai"].
• Auto-embed (oEmbed) — paste a story URL on its own line and it embeds automatically.
• Two display modes — inline (the story embeds in the page, with a fullscreen button) or a card (a poster that opens the full immersive story).
• Connect your account (optional) — add an API key to browse your own stories and insert them with a click, no copy-pasting URLs.

You create and publish stories at scrollytelling.ai; this plugin only displays already-published, public stories.

External services

This plugin connects to the Scrollytelling API (https://api.scrollytelling.ai):

• oEmbed — when a story is embedded, WordPress requests https://api.scrollytelling.ai/published/oembed?url=<your story URL> to get the embed markup. Only the story URL is sent.
• Account connection (optional) — if you save an API key, the plugin requests https://api.scrollytelling.ai/wp/stories and /wp/ping server-side, sending your API key, to list your own published stories in the editor.

Embedded stories load from your story’s public address (e.g. https://your-story.scrollytelling.ai).
