Simply use the shortcode: `[smartcc_contact name="Your Name" title="Your Title" org="Your Company" avatar="https://example.com/avatar.jpg" phone="+1234567890" email ="you@example.com" website="https://example.com" address="123 Main St, City, State, ZIP" whatsapp="+1234567890" telegram="@yourusername" imo="your_imo_id" skype="your_skype_id" wechat="your_wechat_id" button="Save Contact (.vcf)" layout="card" qr_for="vcard" qr_url="" qr_text="" design="default" ] ### Can I customize the design? Yes! The plugin offers a default design and a minimal design. Set `design="minimal_qr"` in the shortcode for the minimal layout. ### Does it work with Elementor? Yes! The plugin includes an Elementor widget that you can drag and drop into your pages. ### Can I customize the QR code? Yes! You can choose what the QR code encodes using the `qr_for` parameter (vcard, whatsapp, telegram, etc.) or provide your own QR code image with `qr_url`. ### Is the plugin GDPR compliant? The plugin doesnā€™t store any user data. QR codes are generated using a third-party service (QuickChart.io) but no personal data is sent to external servers except the contact information you explicitly provide for QR code generation. ### How do I use custom QR codes? Use the `qr_url` parameter to specify your own QR code image URL, or use `qr_text` to specify custom text to be encoded. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers ā€œSmart Contact Cardā€ is open source software.
