Qrexora QR Generator

Description

Qrexora QR Generator lets your visitors create QR codes directly on your website using the [qrexora_qr_generator] shortcode. Everything happens locally in the browser with a bundled, GPL-compatible JavaScript library — no external APIs, CDNs, tracking, or network requests.

Visitors can generate QR codes for:

  • URL
  • Plain text
  • vCard
  • Email (address, subject, message)
  • Phone number
  • SMS (number and message)
  • Wi-Fi (SSID, password, encryption, hidden network)

Features:

  • QR type tabs for faster switching
  • Live QR preview
  • Automatic QR updates when you change tab, content, or settings
  • Preview clears when the active tab has empty required values
  • Custom foreground and background colors
  • Adjustable QR size
  • Selectable error correction level (L, M, Q, H)
  • Reset button
  • Save the QR code as a PNG image (button under preview)
  • Save the QR code as an SVG image (button under preview)
  • Responsive, mobile-friendly, keyboard-accessible design

A settings page (Settings Qrexora QR Generator) lets site administrators choose the default size, colors, error correction, and which QR types are enabled.
