## Description

The ipushpull WordPress plugin makes it easy to automate updates from your desktop
Excel spreadsheets into your WordPress pages.

Push data from Excel

 * Push your data and formats at the click of a button from your existing spreadsheets
   with our Excel add-in. No file uploads required.

Live updates

 * Update your webpages automatically as data changes in your spreadsheet. Share
   only the latest information with your site visitors.

Live charts too!

 * Push your Excel charts automatically to WordPress too.

Take a look at [this page](https://www.ipushpull.com/blog/wordpress-plugin/) on 
the ipushpull blog to see the plugin in action.

You’ll need an ipushpull account to use the plugin – [sign up for a free trial here!](https://ipushpull.com/28956342)

#### Petures

 * Display the latest data from your desktop spreadsheets in your WordPress pages
 * You don’t need to save the source spreadsheet to update the data
 * Your content updates automatically – the reader does not need to refresh their
   browser to get the latest update
 * You choose the range of cells that gets displayed
 * You control the update frequency – every few seconds, every hour, every day
 * Data can be public or password protected

#### Examples

Take a look at [this page on the ipushpull blog](https://www.ipushpull.com/blog/wordpress-plugin/)
to see the plugin in action.

### How do I find out more?

More documentation can be found at the [ipushpull Support Centre](https://support.ipushpull.com).

### Can I see some live examples of Excel data updating in a blog post?

Sure – [this page](https://www.ipushpull.com/blog/wordpress-plugin/) on the ipushpull
WordPress blog includes several examples.

### Is there some test data that I can use without having to sign up to ipushpull first?

Yes – we have a demo ipushpull page that is constantly being updated. It’s in the
folder _DemoExcelUsers_ and is called _BlogSummary_. You can embed this in your 
WordPress page using the following shortcode:

    ```
    [ipushpull_page folder="DemoExcelUsers" page="BlogSummary" height="325px"]
    ```

### Can I control which functions are displayed on the ipushpull toolbar?

ipushpull users with a Business or Enterprise account can control the appearance
of the toolbar. For more details about these packages please see our [Pricing Page](https://ipushpull.com/28956342).

### Instead of my data, my visitors see the error message “You don’t have access to this page”

This means that the ipushpull Page has not been set to _Public_. A Page has to be
Public if you want every visitor to your website to be able to see it.
 See [this support article](https://support.ipushpull.com/client-integrations/websites-and-wordpress/ipushpull-documentation-restrict-access-to-public-pages-embedded-in-your-website)
for instructions.

### Instead of my data, my visitors see the error message “Requested page was not found”

This means that you have made a mistake with the Folder or Page name in your shortcode.
Correct the problem and try again.

### Where can I get more support?

I’ve just tested this plugin, I can easily say that it’s awesome and no one has 
preceeded it with its functionality, I’ve had a little question and the support 
replied in less than 1 hour and I’m using the free version, thanks Devs.

 [lwasserstein](https://profiles.wordpress.org/lwasserstein/) Enero 3, 2017

This plug in works very well indeed. I had a couple of issues with the free version
which were quickly resolved by the support team. Only disadvantage is that Mac O/
S is not supported. The Enterprise version apparently has alerts – would be good
to see some pricing options for individual users that included features like this.

 [serenaileshans](https://profiles.wordpress.org/serenaileshans/) Setyembre 8, 2016

Really good for merging Excel data and gives you way more control. Great for my 
website especially where I’m using data from different sources. You have to create
an account from their website first but it’s really worth it.

 [Atumele](https://profiles.wordpress.org/atumele/) Setyembre 3, 2016

I found this plugin very useful for displaying my Excel data without needing any
extensive coding added on the web server. The support team is very helpful with 
answering queries and are working very hard to add more features.
