<div dir="ltr">Chris,<div><br></div><div>A good first step might be to develop a simple library (possibly as simple as a function or a class) that fetches the data from STEP. Then you could have a single PHP class, Java class, Python class, Ruby class, etc that fetch the data from STEP and anyone could use a class like that to trivially write a plugin like you're describing.</div>

STEP will expose an API to other websites, so I'm looking for volunteers to help brainstorm & possibly write the plugins for the various CMSs around. The idea is pretty straightforward at the moment, and I can think of at least 3 use cases:</div>
<div><ul><li>Verse or passage display</li><li>Verse of the day (mainly because other people do it), but possibly also following some devotional schemes</li><li>Looking up a strong number</li>
<li>maybe some more things if people want to suggest more ideas.</li></ul></div><div>I read from <a href="http://www.siteground.com/best_cms_tools.htm" target="_blank">http://www.siteground.com/best_cms_tools.htm</a> that the top CMS are:</div>
<div><ul><li>Joomla<br></li><li>WordPress<br></li><li>Drupal<br></li></ul></div><div>Any ideas if churches tend to use other popuplar CMS frameworks?</div><div><br></div><div>
STEP currently exposes a REST like interface, but some people might prefer a "javascript" include snippet to include, etc. Would be interested to hear your thoughts on that too.</div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div>
