What a great plugin – by far the best Pinterest plugin out there right now.
Any chance of supporting multiple Pinterest accounts? I run a blog with multiple authors, and I’d like to show the most recent pins from all the authors in one widget. Don’t know if that’s possible.
Thx!
Hello Michelle!
Of course I’ll try to discover a way to make it possible in the upcoming version of the plugin. Thanks for your valuable suggestion and kind words :)
Hi !
this plugin is wonderfull, thanks to share !
but, how can i show my pinterest “likes” ?
with the “Pinboard php function”, i can show my boards or my latests pins, but i would like show my likes on my website > to show my “universe”/what i like..
can you help me ? (i don’t use widget, but the php function)
thanks
ps: if you’ll help me, thanks to clearly explain because i’m french. :)
Hello Arnaud D
Thanks for your kind words about the plugin. Here’s the explanation of using Pinboard PHP function to display on your WordPress theme:
<?php if(function_exists('wp_pinterest_pinboard'))echo wp_pinterest_pinboard(
'your_pinterest_username',
'name_of_your_pinboard(optional)',
'number_of_pins',
'custom_pin_width,
'custom_pin_height(optional),
'maximum_pin_height(optional)',
'show_pin_description',
'follow_button_format',
'pinboard_columns'
); ?>
The ‘show_pin_description’ can be turned on by providing value ’1′ and turned off with value ’0′.
The optional fields if not specified, can be left blank (for example, if you don’t want to ‘use name_of_your_pinboard’ field, use ” in place of it). The ‘follow_button_format’ could be one of the following values:
large-white | medium-white | icon-white | tiny-white | icon-text-white | large-red | medium-red | icon-red | tiny-red | icon-text-red | noneThe ‘pinboard_columns’ field can be used to display multiple columns in your pinboard. While specifying more than 1 columns for the pinboard, you should adjust ‘custom_pin_width’ to get the pinboard well-fitted on your website.
For your convenience, I’m writing the code which you can use directly by providing in your Pinterest username, and Pinboard Name (leave Pinboard name blank if want to display recent pins only).
<?php if(function_exists('wp_pinterest_pinboard'))echo wp_pinterest_pinboard(
'put_your_pinterest_username_here',
'provide_your_pinboard_name_here',
'25',
'120,
'',
'',
'1',
'icon-text-red',
'1'
); ?>
Hope it has helped.
Regards.
Hi Rahul !
thanks to help me :)
I understand how work your php function on my wordpress website (and it works), but i want to know :
How to show my “pinterest Likes” (not my “Board pins” -> my “Likes”) ?
Hope you can help me
Thanks
Hey Arnaud!
Currently, you can show only the Pinterest boards and recent pins with WP Pinterest. As of now, I’m working on a few more features including displaying Pinterest likes and will roll out soon in the next version of WP Pinterest.. Stay tuned till the next version release.
Ok, thank you.
I look forward !!
All of your codes here and on the WordPress plugin page are a little bit different. I’ve tried everything with shortcode and PHP and am unable to show a specific board. No matter which variation of your codes I use, I always get all boards. Can you help please?
[pinboard username="theluckyladybug" pinboard="fathers-are-special" pins="100" width="150" height="150" maxheight="150" description="0" follow="large-white" columns="5"]
Hi Cheryl!
Actually the codes up there at the WordPress plugin page are not updated due to some technical problem at WordPress repository. All of them will be updated as soon as this technical problem fixes.
The shortcode you’re using is all fine except for the ‘pinboard’ parameter. Put the name of the pinboard in there, (for eg. ‘father are special’ instead of ‘father-are-speacial’), it’ll start displaying the pins from a specific board.
The shortcode will look like:
[pinboard username="theluckyladybug" pinboard="fathers are special" pins="100" width="150" height="150" maxheight="" description="0" follow="large-white" columns="5"]I’ve left maxheight parameter blank in the above code, since we’ve fixed the height parameter to 150(height=”150″), therefore using a maxheight value will serve no use here.Hope it has helped.
Thanks
I forgot to check back — *thanks so much* … works like a dream!
Actually … I didn’t look close enough. There’s no difference at all. It only shows my latest pins.
Change pinboard to just board and it should work. So code should look like this:
[pinboard username="theluckyladybug" board="fathers are special" pins="100" width="150" height="150" maxheight="" description="0" follow="large-white" columns="5"]
Took me a bit to figure out. Almost gave up to look for another plugin…
Hello,
I’m not having success in getting my Pinterest images to be displayed on my site. I’ve entered the correct info into the side-bar widget for them to be displayed, but all I’m seeing is the “Recent Pins’ verbiage, and “More Pins”. “More Pins” redirects one to my Pinterest Board, but the widget box will not display any images.
Please help!!:)
Hello Jordan.
Sorry for replying late.
Please use the exact Board name as you have on Pinterest. Or directly copy-paste the board name from your Pinterest and paste it in the widget. Hope it will work. Let me know if you’ve fixed it or if you need more help on this.
Hi Rahul,
Is there an option to show the pin it button on the images only,- like in the top right hand corner – on every image – and/or – for select images?
Hi Rose!
The feature you’re looking for is not available with the current version. I’ll introduce this feature in the next version. Stay tuned!
Great plugin!
But I can’t seem to get the pin to bring up any image except the featured image (my past posts don’t have a featured image assigned), even though I have several images in most posts and a fallback pin image. And since it won’t bring up an image, it won’t pin. Do you know what I’m doing wrong?
Hi Courtney!
For posts with no featured images attached, your can specify a common image (which could be the logo of your Blog). To do so, just go to WP Pinterest options in the Settings > WP Pinterest in the Fallback Pin Image option, put the URL of that common image in the ‘Fallback Pin Image’ field and save the changes.
Let me know if you still facing problem with it.
Thanks.
Thanks for getting back to me!
Yeah, I’m still having the problem. My fallback image is here
http://www.skittlesandscraps.com/siteimages/ordinarybutton.jpg
but it still doesn’t want to pull it up when I pin it.
I am having the same problem. I set up the URL of a fallback image ( http://joncarloftis.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/8.png ) but even that won’t pin. Each post of my blog has a photo gallery which I would rather it pin from but nothing at all comes up. It will however let it pin with the blank image?
I really would rather not have people pinning my featured image, because it is a weird size. Can I make it so they have a choice of images to pin? Or at least that I can have a choice?
Thanks for the best Pinterest plugin around! Any plans on pushing the limit to more than 25 images fetched? I am using your plugin to create “my own” interest page on my blog (http://www.erikkruse.no/pinterest) – and would love to get all images in the pinboard loaded. Any chance you will include that feature?
Regarding the ‘follow us on Pinterest button’. I installed it on this site http://www.zondagmeubel.nl and it works fine. However it opens the indicated Pinterest page in the same window, leaving the original website. I would like it to open in a new window, automatically using a new tab. Is this possible? Thanks!
do you mind if i ask what social plugin you are using for your? I mean “like Tweet gPlus Pinit”
hello,
I tried very hard to configure the pinboard part of this plugin, the one that is supposedly visible in the widget area. But I see nothing there. I just see the title that I have given ‘Recent Pins’, but no actual board.
What are the default values for the width and height? DO we need to specify them. I tried a few combinations with no results.
I am doing this on a local installation. Will that make a difference?
Please help.
thanks!
how do i get the same lineup right at the top of this blog post, where you have facebook like, then google+1, then tweet and then pinit and submit logos?
ive installed sociable and your wp pinterest.
i basically want the same lineup you’ve got right at the top of this blog post.
whats the best solution? hand coding it or relying on your plugins like wp interest and that other sociable one?
thanks
Thanks for you plugin. I use jetpack to show sharing options at the bottom of my posts, but needed something to show just the pin it button at the top of the post, near the featured image. Your plugin works well!
I did notice one thing, the plug in seems to ignore the “Display Follow button in Pages” option. I do not want to display it on pages, but no matter what setting I choose, keeps the Pinit button on pages. I can only get it to disappear if I disable the plugin.
Thanks!
Hi! Thanks for this plugin, it’s been pretty easy to install but when I pin things, no images come up at all – just a light tan or yellow square. Most sites, when I pin something, it lets me choose from several pictures. Any tips for me? Thanks!
Hi Rahul,
excellent work !!!!
When i click on image-tumb-photo, can i open opens Pinterest page in a blank page ?

I have been using your wp pinterest plugin successfully.
Upon checking it now when I press on it to pin a picture on my website it goes to the login page for pinterest then logs me in but a page comes up
“Image not found. Close the window and try again”. am not sure how to fix it. I did deactivate and then activated again but that did not work.
Also to give you more information I have a pin button on my chrome browser that I could pin from websites and that does work for the pictures on the site. Could you please help me out.
Thanks
Jeffrey
