Ever tried getting JavaScript content into your WordPress posts or pages? Yeah, that’s impossible. WP strips down all
the JavaScript.
This makes adding JavaScript Charts and Maps a hassle.
Developed and maintained by amCharts staff, this plugin solves the problem by…
As a standalone JS chart library, Amcharts is one of the best there is – powerful, logically organized, and remarkably stable.
This plugin is essentially a shortcode generator – you still need to write all the chart code in JS.
It has a lot of moving parts – the upside is you can do anything you want. And while the docum is extensive and well-organized, it’s still a steep learning curve (at least, for me).
I hung in there and I’m glad I did – nothing in the WP ecosystem comes even close to what Amcharts can do.
Yes, you need to work a little harder to get things going than with other plugins, but the output is so much better! I can’t imagine a diagram that can’t be done with Amworks. Keep up the great work 🙂
I have used this plugin almost 7 years ago and that time I was stacked for somewhere and I asked for help, plugin author @martynasma helped me. I was very glad to him but I forgot to review. This 5 star for you. Thanks man.
Have used Amcharts for my static sites. Briliiantly designed. Same concepts applied here for WordPress. However, since the charts are defined using JS and Amcharts object lib, there is a definite learning curve.
