## Description

This plugins adds two short codes [boardgameprice id=xxxx] and
 [boardgamepricebox
id=xxxx] for embedding the best price for purchasing a specific board game. The 
information is taken from https://boardgameprices.co.uk

You get the product ID from the URL of the product you would like to show
 the price
for. For instance https://boardgameprices.co.uk/item/show/7595/caverna-the-cave-
farmers Here the ID is 7595.

Some options can be changes in the settings panel in the administration of
 WordPress.
Here you can change the currency, shipping destination calculation and stock preference.

Attributes available are:
 * id: A comma-separated list of product IDs to show. 
Will take the first for [boardgameprice] and will list them all for [boardgamepricebox]*
currency: An override of the currency setting. * destination: An override of the
destination setting. * delivery: An override of the delivery setting. * sort: An
override of the sorting setting.

The plugin can be translated with the i18n part of WordPress.

### 󠀁[No Canadian option](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-canadian-option/)󠁿

 [jolanxbl](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jolanxbl/) September 20, 2023

I went into settings to see how to use it. There’s no option to set Canadian currency,
or instructions on how to use it. I thought it was just going to show the listed
prices for the boardgame but if I have to go to the site profile and set it up, 
may as well just manually type it in myself and skip the plugin. Also, the 5-Star
review is from the plugin author, so it’s a fake review
