## Descrizione

Outline to Mind Map lets you turn a plain text outline into a fully interactive,
zoomable mind map — right inside your WordPress content.

I love mind maps and hope that this plugin will serve you well. I discovered [Markmap.js](https://markmap.js.org/)
and asked Claude.ai to help me build a plugin around it. It takes a universe to 
make a sandwich; structure supports spontaneity.

**How it works:**

Write a Markdown-style outline between the shortcode tags and the plugin renders
it into a smooth, animated SVG mind map — with clickable nodes, zoom, and pan.

    ```
    [outline-to-mind-map]
    # My Topic
    ## Branch One
    ### Leaf
    ## Branch Two
    [/outline-to-mind-map]
    ```

**Features:**

 * Simple shortcode — works in any post, page, or widget
 * Interactive: zoom, pan, and click nodes to fold/unfold
 * Configurable fold depth, dimensions, and color schemes
 * Five built-in color palettes: Default, Cool, Warm, Forest, Mono
 * Output caching via WordPress transients (Redis/Memcached compatible)
 * Settings page with full parameter reference
 * Dark mode aware
 * No account or API key required
 * Powered by the open-source [Markmap.js](https://markmap.js.org/) library

### Usage

Basic example:

    ```
    [outline-to-mind-map]
    # My Project
    ## Planning
    ### Goals
    ### Timeline
    ## Execution
    ### Development
    ### Testing
    [/outline-to-mind-map]
    ```

With options:

    ```
    [outline-to-mind-map fold="2" color_scheme="forest" height="600px"]
    # My Topic
    ## Branch A
    ## Branch B
    [/outline-to-mind-map]<h3>Shortcode Parameters</h3>
    ```

* **fold** — Initial fold depth: `none` (fully expanded), `all` (root only), or `
1`–`3`. Default: `none`
 * **width** — Container width, any CSS value. Default: `
100%` * **height** — Container height, any CSS value. Default: `500px` * **color_scheme**—
Branch palette: `default`, `cool`, `warm`, `forest`, `mono`. Default: `default` ***
zoom** — Enable mouse-wheel zoom: `true` or `false`. Default: `true` * **pan** —
Enable drag-to-pan: `true` or `false`. Default: `true` * **cache** — Cache this 
instance: `true` or `false`. Default: `true`

All parameters can be set globally at **Settings  Outline to Mind Map** and overridden
per shortcode.

## Installazione

 1. Upload the `outline-to-mind-map` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`
 2. Activate the plugin via **Plugins  Installed Plugins**
 3. Add the shortcode to any post or page using the **Shortcode block** in Gutenberg
 4. Optionally configure global defaults at **Settings  Outline to Mind Map**

**Important:** Always add the shortcode using Gutenberg’s **Shortcode block** (the`[/]`
block), not a Paragraph or Code block.

## FAQ

### Which block do I use in Gutenberg?

Always use the **Shortcode block** — search for “Shortcode” in the block inserter(
it shows a `[/]` icon). Do not paste the shortcode into a Paragraph or Code block.

### The mind map appears blank after a page reload.

Go to **Settings  Outline to Mind Map** and click **Flush All Cached Maps**, then
reload the page. This clears any stale cached output.

### Can I change the default height and colors?

Yes — visit **Settings  Outline to Mind Map** to set global defaults for all maps
on your site. Individual shortcodes can override any setting.

### Does this work with classic (non-Gutenberg) editor?

Yes, paste the shortcode directly into the classic editor’s text view.

### Does it require an internet connection?

The Markmap.js library loads from the jsDelivr CDN, so visitors need internet access.
There is no server-side dependency.

### Will this slow down pages that don’t have a mind map?

No. The Markmap scripts are only loaded on pages that contain the shortcode.
