Overview
I have used Plot Over Time for a long time when found that I needed to put multiple charts on one page and category restrictions. The plugin did not allow it. I am insistent on not needing a new plugin – as this one has worked just fine for me… So, I made changes.
My first change is small in user effort, but large in execution… I added an optional parameter for chart_num. This optional parameter is not needed if you are using the plugin for a single chart page. It is only needed to identify what chart you are making on a multi-chart page…
Single chart on a page…
[plot_ext field1="Heart Rate"]
Multi-Chart page…
[plot_ext field1="Heart Rate" chart_num="1"]
[plot_ext field1="Blood Pressure" chart_num="2"]
