    This doesn’t embed anything and is listed as the first embed plugin for github.
    I even made my own embeding plugin for embed github content (repos,files,readmes…) years ago, and this plugin of yours is the first of the list even if doesn’t embed anything, just the name of the repository ? wtf

    Hi;

    Are you actually experiencing a bug here? The screenshots on the plugin page show what is embedded : https://wordpress.org/plugins/github-embed/#screenshots

    Are you saying that this isn’t working for you?

    nope, any bug, your plugin just doesn’t embed anything

    This is what a plugin does when embeds github:

    This is your plugin:

    Hi;

    The purpose of this plugin is to act as an oEmbed proxy for GitHub, allowing users to easily include rich, formatted information about a repo, user, milestone etc. into their posts and pages by simply pasting in the relevant URL.

    It does that as-designed as per the screenshots you provided.

    While that behaviour might not be what you’re looking for, and if so, it sounds like this isn’t the plugin for you.

    While I’m sorry to hear that, I’m not sure leaving a 1-star review is appropriate just because the plugin doesn’t do what you want and I’d ask you to reconsider that.
