EveryPage – PDF Viewer, Flipbook Embeds & Reader Analytics

Description

EveryPage turns your PDFs into secure, trackable share links – and shows you who actually read them, right inside wp-admin. Instead of emailing an attachment or dropping a file on a page and hoping, you get a clean link and a readership report: who opened it, how far they read, how long they spent, and whether they came back.

It is built for anyone who publishes documents meant to do a job – lead magnets, whitepapers, price lists, proposals, reports, course material, media kits – and wants to know how they land.

What you can do

• Upload a PDF from the EveryPage admin and get a secure, trackable share link in seconds.
• See all your files with view counts and expiry at a glance, and open the full readership report for any document in one click.
• Edit a file’s settings without leaving WordPress: viewer mode and appearance, download and copy protection, password, view limits, watermarking, email gate and lead-capture form, expiry, vanity slug, and page range – everything your EveryPage plan includes, from a drawer on the Files page.
• Share every file three ways from its row: copy the link, show a QR code, or copy a ready-made iframe embed code.
• Read page-by-page analytics: a read-through funnel, time per page, returning readers, and reader country – without storing visitor IP addresses.
• Keep an eye on recent activity from your main dashboard with the “Recent reads” widget (file, reader country, pages read, when).
• Add the EveryPage Document block: pick one of your documents (or upload a PDF right from the editor), then embed it inline as a live viewer or as a link/button – with a live preview in the editor.
• Tune a document’s viewer from the block sidebar (viewer mode, background, page effects, protection, branding – per your EveryPage plan), including one-click “Match my theme’s colours”.
• Embed a tracked document anywhere with the [everypage uuid="..."] shortcode – block editor, classic editor, or widgets.
• Generate a QR code for any link and download it as a PNG.
• Share any PDF already in your Media Library: a “Share via EveryPage” row action, a button in the attachment details, and a bulk action – each share gives you the link, QR code, and embed snippet, and an EveryPage column shows view counts at a glance.
• Replace existing links to a Media Library PDF across your posts and pages with its tracked EveryPage link – with a dry-run preview first, an explicit confirm, and your posts’ revision history keeping the previous versions.

Privacy-first by design

EveryPage measures readership without storing visitor IP addresses – readers are pseudonymous, so you get returning-reader detection and engagement without holding personal data you would rather not be responsible for. Password protection, an email-capture gate, link expiry, and AES-256 encrypted storage are available depending on your EveryPage plan.

You need a free EveryPage account and an API key (Account → API keys at everypage.co). This plugin is a client for the EveryPage service (https://everypage.co); PDFs you share are uploaded to your EveryPage account over HTTPS.

Development happens on GitHub: https://github.com/EveryPageApp/everypage-wordpress – issues and pull requests welcome.

External services

This plugin is a client for EveryPage (https://everypage.co), the external service it depends on to store and share your PDFs and to report readership analytics. A free EveryPage account and an API key are required.

The plugin sends data to EveryPage over HTTPS only when you actively use it:

• When you upload a PDF (EveryPage -> Files), that PDF file is sent to your EveryPage account to create a secure, trackable share link.
• When you share a PDF from your Media Library (row action, attachment details, or bulk action), that PDF file is read from your server and sent to your EveryPage account the same way.
• When you view your files, a file’s analytics, or the “Recent reads” dashboard widget, the plugin sends authenticated requests to read that data.
• When you open a file’s QR code, the plugin requests the QR image for that file.
• When you use the EveryPage Document block in the editor, the plugin lists your files, uploads a PDF you choose, or saves viewer settings – all server-side; your API key is never sent to the browser. A published embed loads the document viewer from everypage.co in visitors’ browsers (no API key involved).

Every request includes your EveryPage API key as a bearer token. Nothing is sent until you take one of the actions above, and the plugin contacts no other external service.
