Statements that can be sent are:

 * page views

## Installation

Assumes you are using PHP version >= 5.4 (requirement of TinCanPHP Library that 
the plugin includes)

 1. plunk folder into plugins
 2. Activate the plugin WP Experience API” through the Plugins” menu in WordPress

#### EXTRA NOTES FOR MU:

If you want to install in wp-content/mu-plugins folder, the plugin uses a proxy 
loader file.

 1. copy wp-experience-api directory to mu-plugins folder
 2. copy wp-experience-api/wp-experience-api-mu-loader.php to directory one level up(
    same level as wp-experience-api itself AKA just under mu-plugins folder)
 3. it should be installed! Enjoy!

#### EXTRA EXTRA NOTES:

 * now that the plugin uses the TinCanPHP library (http://rusticisoftware.github.
   io/TinCanPHP/), please make sure that it is updated regularly as well! current
   version is 0.11.4

## FAQ

  How can I add more xAPI statements to the plugin?

You can create your own plugin and use the plugin’s hooks!

  How come nothing is being sent to the LRS after I activate the plugin?

The settings are defaulted so that nothing is sent by default. Please go to the 
dashboard and the WP xAPI settings page to configure what statements are sent.

  What is the queue for?

The queue is used for when for some reason, LRS can’t be reached, then statements
meant to be sent will be added to the queue to be sent later in the admin screen.

Thank you for the great work! The plugin allows integration with other plugins. 
We just implemented sending xAPI statements from Namaste! LMS through WP Experience
API by adding triggers and it works like a charm. This plugin deserves far more 
popularity that it has.

### 󠀁[Simple and Solid](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-solid-7/)󠁿

Really impressive, as I had about zero expectations that this would even function.
What’s unbelievable about this add-in is that it is i) about one of two hits on 
tin can” or xapi” on plugins library (the other being one for the H5P connector);
and ii) 20+ downloads in last 6 – 12 months this has been available. Makes me think
that Tin Can doesn’t have much of a following (yet), but given SCORM is, or should
be, dead or dying, would think only a matter of time. Suggests that there are fewer
than 20 sites out there with i) non-PHP programmers managing them; and ii) any interest
in sending standard left a comment on my WP site” statements to an LRS. In any event,
the plug-in does exactly what it should. I punched in some user codes for a GrassBlade
LRS I have, and it worked just as you’d expect, so you can add that LRS to the list
of somewhat test” set-ups. (I used the API keys, etc. that were derived from spending
$49.00 on that plugin did see if more normal credentials would work or not.) Only
reason not 5 stars, is that the plugin is just not that fully developed to allow
for the range of interactions one might hope for. For instance, it did recognize
the action of leaving a comment on a BBPress forum, but the title, but what showed
up in the LRS as a title” (I guess object of statement), didn’t seem quite connected
to the specific page. As well, and in fairness to developer who certainly has not
indicated otherwise, I use some random ratings plug-in (not the theme item specifically
noted), and I can’t capture the action of rating a post”, which is on my list of
activities I’d like to track. In any event, all good. This plug-in would think deserves
some more downloads and a few more reviews.
