VedIntel Astro Widgets

VedIntel™ AstroAPI brings Swiss Ephemeris-powered Vedic astrology to every WordPress site — as shortcodes, Gutenberg blocks, and interactive visitor forms.

The plugin connects to the VedIntel™ AstroAPI (vedintelastroapi.com), which provides 147 API endpoints covering Vedic astrology, Panchang, Kundali matching, Dashas, divisional charts, and more — in 23 languages. Calculations run on VedIntel’s own infrastructure using Swiss Ephemeris; no astronomical computation happens inside WordPress.

What you get

• 6 Shortcodes — drop Vedic astrology anywhere in posts, pages, or widgets
• 6 Gutenberg Blocks — drag-and-drop in the block editor with live inspector controls
• Interactive forms — visitors enter their own birth data, result renders inline. No page reload.
• Vedic birth chart — planets, houses, degrees, nakshatra, and pada
• Vimshottari Dashas — Mahadasha, Antardasha, and Pratyantardasha
• Optional tabbed chart view — Natal, Navamsa (D9), Dashamsha (D10), Dashas, and Transits in one widget
• Panchang — Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana, Sunrise, Sunset, and more
• Compatibility — Ashtakoot kundali matching with score and koot breakdown
• AI chart reading — your connected AI provider (OpenAI or Anthropic, BYOK) streams a full chart interpretation
• 3 visual themes — Cosmic Dark, Clean Light, Minimal — match any site design
• City autocomplete — type a city name, lat/lon/timezone auto-fill
• Secure proxy — your API key never reaches the browser. All calls go server-to-server.

Shortcodes

Interactive form (recommended for public sites):
[vedintel_form widget=”chart”]

Static widgets (hardcoded birth data):
[vedintel_chart dob=”01/10/1977″ tob=”11:40″ lat=”11″ lon=”77″ tz=”5.5″]
[vedintel_chart dob=”01/10/1977″ tob=”11:40″ lat=”11″ lon=”77″ tz=”5.5″ show_tabs=”1″]
[vedintel_dasha dob=”01/10/1977″ tob=”11:40″ lat=”11″ lon=”77″ tz=”5.5″]
[vedintel_panchang lat=”28.61″ lon=”77.20″ tz=”5.5″]
[vedintel_compatibility m_dob=”01/10/1977″ m_tob=”11:40″ m_lat=”11″ m_lon=”77″ m_tz=”5.5″ f_dob=”15/03/1980″ f_tob=”10:00″ f_lat=”19.07″ f_lon=”72.87″ f_tz=”5.5″]
[vedintel_ai_chart dob=”01/10/1977″ tob=”11:40″ lat=”11″ lon=”77″ tz=”5.5″]

Adding show_tabs="1" to [vedintel_chart] activates the tabbed view with Natal, Navamsa (D9), Dashamsha (D10), Dashas, and Transits panels. Tabs load on demand. Which tabs appear depends on the connected VedIntel account plan.

Gutenberg Blocks

All 6 shortcodes are also available as native Gutenberg blocks with live inspector controls — no shortcode syntax required. Add a VedIntel Birth Chart, Dashas, Panchang, Compatibility, AI Chart, or Form block from the block inserter and configure it directly in the sidebar.

The free 7-day trial unlocks 128 of the 147 endpoints so you can validate your use case before subscribing (AI features and PDF reports need a paid plan; 8 advanced technique endpoints need the Starter plan or above).

AI chart readings ([vedintel_ai_chart]) require a paid plan and a connected AI provider (OpenAI or Anthropic) configured in your VedIntel dashboard. VedIntel does not pay for AI inference on your behalf — you connect your own provider key (BYOK).

External Services

This plugin connects to the VedIntel™ AstroAPI (vedintelastroapi.com) to compute and retrieve Vedic astrology data.

What the service does: Performs server-side Vedic astronomical computation (planetary positions, houses, dashas, panchang, kundali matching, divisional charts, AI chart narratives) using Swiss Ephemeris running on VedIntel’s own infrastructure. No calculations happen inside WordPress.

What data is sent and when:
– Birth date, time, latitude, longitude, and timezone — sent when a shortcode or block renders astrology data, or when a visitor submits the interactive birth-data form.
– City name — sent when a visitor uses the city autocomplete field to look up coordinates.
– Your API key — sent with every request to authenticate your account. It is added server-side and never exposed to the browser.

Birth date, time, and location are personal data. By using this plugin you are responsible for ensuring your site’s privacy policy discloses their transmission to VedIntel™ AstroAPI and complies with applicable regulations (GDPR, DPDPA, etc.).
