To use the Spreadsheet Reader plugin, you need to obtain your Spreadsheet ID from Google Sheets. Follow these simple steps:
Step 1: Open Your Google Sheet
- Go to Google Sheets.
- Open the spreadsheet that you want to display on your website.
Step 2: Change Sharing Settings
- Click File > Share > Share with others.
- Under the General Access section, select Anyone with the link.
- Click Copy link, then click Done.



Step 3: Extract the Spreadsheet ID
The Spreadsheet ID is a unique string found in your Google Sheets URL. After copying the link, look for a format like this:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iC0pIm3FBsjOtIACrcKtPS2BejOQ62Re9Ftk1M2bRZ8/edit?gid=0#gid=0
Here, the Spreadsheet ID is the long string between /d/ and /edit:
1iC0pIm3FBsjOtIACrcKtPS2BejOQ62Re9Ftk1M2bRZ8
Step 4: Paste the Spreadsheet ID into the Plugin
Now, return to your WordPress site and go to Settings > Spreadsheet Reader. Paste the Spreadsheet ID in the appropriate field when creating a shortcode.
Done! You can now use this ID to fetch and display spreadsheet data on your website using shortcodes.
