No page reload. * **AI narrative streaming** — VedIntel™ AstroAPI reads the chart aloud, token by token (requires AI add-on) * **3 visual themes** — Cosmic Dark, Clean Light, Minimal — match any site design * **City autocomplete** — type a city name, lat/lon/timezone auto-fill * **Secure proxy** — your API key never reaches the browser. All calls go server- to-server. #### Shortcodes **Interactive form (recommended for public sites):** [vedintel_form widget=”chart”] **Static widgets (hardcoded birth data):** [vedintel_chart dob=”01/10/1977″ tob =”11:40″ lat=”11″ lon=”77″ tz=”5.5″] [vedintel_dasha dob=”01/10/1977″ tob=”11:40″ lat=”11″ lon=”77″ tz=”5.5″] [vedintel_panchang lat=”28.61″ lon=”77.20″ tz=”5.5″][ vedintel_compatibility m_dob=”01/10/1977″ m_lat=”11″ m_lon=”77″ m_tz=”5.5″ f_dob =”15/03/1980″ f_lat=”19.07″ f_lon=”72.87″ f_tz=”5.5″] [vedintel_ai_chart dob=”01/ 10/1977″ tob=”11:40″ lat=”11″ lon=”77″ tz=”5.5″] #### Get an API Key 1. Sign up free at [vedintelastroapi.com](https://vedintelastroapi.com) 2. Go to **Dashboard API Keys** and copy your key 3. Paste it in **Settings VedIntel Astro** in your WordPress admin The free plan includes 500 API calls/month — plenty for low-traffic sites. Paid plans start at $9/month. #### Powered by * Swiss Ephemeris — industry-standard astronomical computation (local, zero third- party dependency) * Lahiri Ayanamsa (default) — most common in Indian Vedic practice * Claude AI — narrative interpretations by VedIntel™ AstroAPI (AI add-on required) ### External Services This plugin connects to the VedIntel AstroAPI (vedintelastroapi.com) to compute and retrieve Vedic astrology data. **What the service does:** Performs server-side Vedic astronomical computation ( planetary positions, dashas, panchang, kundali matching, AI chart narratives) using Swiss Ephemeris. **What data is sent and when:** – Birth date, time, latitude, longitude, and timezone— sent when a shortcode or block renders astrology data, or when a visitor submits the interactive birth-data form. – City name — sent when a visitor uses the city autocomplete field to look up coordinates. – Your API key — sent with every request to authenticate your account. It is added server-side and never exposed to the browser. No personally identifiable information beyond birth data is collected or stored by this plugin. **Service provider:** VedIntel (vedintelastroapi.com) **Terms of Service:** https:// vedintelastroapi.com/terms **Privacy Policy:** https://vedintelastroapi.com/privacy ## Bloku Kijalizi hivi vinawezesha bloku 6. * VedIntel Dasha Timeline Display Vimshottari Mahadasha, Antardasha, and Pratyantardasha tree. * VedIntel Daily Panchang Show today's Vedic panchang — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, vara, sunrise/sunset. * VedIntel Birth Chart Embed a Vedic birth chart with planet table and dasha card. * VedIntel AI Chart Reading Live streaming AI narrative chart interpretation by Vedika (requires AI add-on). * VedIntel Compatibility Ashtakoot compatibility score and koot breakdown for two birth charts. * VedIntel Interactive Form Interactive birth data form — visitor enters details, chart or reading renders inline. ## Installation 1. Upload the `vedintel-astro` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` 2. Activate the plugin in **Plugins Installed Plugins** 3. Go to **Settings VedIntel Astro** 4. Paste your API key and click **Test Key** to verify 5. Add a shortcode or block to any post or page ## FAQ ### Is my API key secure? Yes. Your API key is stored in `wp_options` (same as any WordPress setting) and all API calls are made server-to-server via the WordPress REST API proxy. It is never exposed in the browser or JavaScript source. ### Do visitors see my API key? No. The plugin includes a REST proxy (`/wp-json/vedintel/v1/proxy`) that adds your API key on the server before calling the VedIntel API. ### Which plan do I need? The free plan (500 calls/month) works with all widgets. AI narrative endpoints (`[ vedintel_ai_chart]`) require an AI add-on on any paid plan. ### Does this work with page builders? Yes. The shortcodes work in any context that supports WordPress shortcodes — Elementor, Beaver Builder, Divi, WPBakery, etc. ### Can visitors enter their own birth data? Yes. Use `[vedintel_form widget="chart"]` (or any other widget type). A form renders, and when the visitor submits, the result appears inline with no page reload. ## Reviews Hakuna hakiki za programu-jalizi hii. ## Wachangiaji & Wasanidi “VedIntel Astro Widgets” is open source software.
