External services
This plugin relies on the BeBasket API to provide oEmbed support.
When a BeBasket widget URL is pasted into the WordPress editor, WordPress
automatically calls the BeBasket oEmbed endpoint to retrieve the HTML needed
to display the widget. The widget URL is sent to our API at that point.
No personal data is transmitted.

FAQ
-
Do I need an account on BeBasket to embed a widget?
-
No. Widgets are free to create and embed, anonymously or signed in.
-
Where do I generate a widget?
-
At bebasket.fr/widget, or the equivalent page on be-basketball.com / bebasket.be. Pick a type, configure it, copy the URL, paste it in WordPress.
-
Can I customize the widget’s appearance?
-
Yes. Each widget picks up an accent color you choose at creation time. No additional styling is required — widgets adapt to common WordPress themes.
-
Does the widget impact site performance?
-
The widget script is lazy-loaded from our CDN with aggressive caching. Expected footprint per page: one HTTP request for the script (around 6 KB gzipped) plus one JSON fetch per widget instance.
-
Does this plugin store any personal data?
-
No. The plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Widgets themselves only load public basketball content.
