How to create Pie and Doughnut charts in WordPress via shortcode

Pie and Doughnut charts are ideal for showing part-to-whole values. Chartlet supports both via the same shortcode API.

1. Pie chart shortcode

Use this full shortcode with all major parameters:

[chartlet type="pie" labels="Jan,Feb,Mar" data="10,20,30" colors="#3366cc,#dc3912,#ff9900" title="Title" height="300" suffix="%" prefix="$"]

2. Doughnut chart shortcode

Switch only the type value:

[chartlet type="doughnut" labels="Jan,Feb,Mar" data="10,20,30" colors="#3366cc,#dc3912,#ff9900" title="Title" height="300" suffix="%" prefix="$"]

3. Parameter reference

  • type: pie or doughnut
  • labels: comma-separated labels
  • data: comma-separated numeric values
  • colors: comma-separated HEX colors
  • title: chart title
  • height: chart height in pixels
  • prefix / suffix: format values with currency/units
