The XData Toolkit is an XML\/XSLT transformation engine and Database Toolkit that allows one to retrieve data from multiple datasources such as MySQL databases, XML, RSS Feeds and REST-based\nWeb Services. This toolkit is a powerful way to build your WordPress sites faster and more dynamically. Integrate scores of different data sources into your site without\nthe need for custom coding and style it using XML standards-based XSL Transformation. Build queries online with the Dynamic Query Interface Builder.\nCreate stylesheets without expensive development tools! Use the run-time parameters feature to create different versions of the same Query Interface.<\/p>\n\n
Version 1.7 and 1.8 introduces dynamic variables and the Query Variable Registry. You are now able to pass name\/value pairs within your WordPress URL and use them dynamically as parameters in transformations and SQL queries. Use the name\/value pairs within other plugins as well.\nVersion 1.9 introduces Documentation and streamlined technical support.<\/p>\n\n
