charts from variables?

[lfrisch]

From reading the documentation it looks as if values to chart need to be listed explicitly.  I am pretty sure from the one parameter referring to a data table that there is a way to construct charts from an array. I  have a set of fields out of a mysql database that I'd like to graph.  (How)  Can I do that?

Thanks!

currently it does not access the sql database.  I may add that capability at some point as it is one of thos recurring suggestions.

Nice work on this plugin - the graphs look great and the documentation is easy to follow.

I have not looked at the code yet, but I'd also like to tie in variables to create graphs on the fly. Doesn't have to be directly from the database - just being able to define variables in PHP and then call the plugin would be great. It may be possible to do this already - I don't know much about how shortcodes actually work on the backend...

Cheers, DK

I would gladly modify the plugin to support this, I just am admittedly weak in this area.

not very comfortable, but you can include php-code in the shortcut when activated a PHP-Execution Plugin
