EV Puzzles brings the same mechanic to any WordPress site. **Generate word lists in seconds, from a prompt or from your own articles** The admin interface uses AI to generate lists of words and hints for your puzzles — either from a manual prompt, or straight from the content of one of your existing posts. This is the fastest way to turn an article you’ve already written into a puzzle readers can play. **Or skip AI entirely** Every AI feature is optional. Build a crossword manually by typing your word list or adding words one by one. Word search puzzles auto-generate from your word list (configurable grid size, optional diagonal/reversed words) and can be regenerated as many times as you like before saving. **Native to the block editor** Puzzles embed as real Gutenberg blocks — no shortcodes, no iframes. **Checkered Force: an original strategy game, not just word puzzles** Alongside crosswords and word search, EV Puzzles also ships Checkered Force — an original Entreveloper.com 2-player abstract strategy board game, playable here single-player against a built-in AI with four difficulty levels. No word list or admin authoring required: add the block, pick a difficulty, and readers can play immediately. **See what readers actually finish** Built-in plays and completions tracking, right inside wp-admin, so you can see which puzzles are working without a separate analytics tool. **Bring your own AI provider** Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or a self- hosted Ollama instance — your key, your data, your choice. **User Manual included** An user manual, available from the Admin interface, is included, which provides text and visual explanations, making it very easy to learn how to use the plugin. #### Free vs. Pro EV Puzzles is free and fully functional today — unlimited puzzles, AI or manual word list creation, native blocks, and usage tracking, all included, no account required. The only thing the free version adds to your page is a small „Puzzles powered by Entreveloper” credit link shown under each puzzle viewer. A Pro tier is available, and additional features are in active development. It is suitable for publishers who want to run daily puzzles as a serious retention strategy: scheduled/automated puzzle publishing, reader streaks and leaderboards, deeper retention analytics, a printable magazine-style crossword hints table, and multi-site licensing for agencies. See [EV-Puzzles pricing] (https://entreveloper.com/pricing/ “Pricing info for pro version”) for more information. ### Development Development happens in Github: [EV-Puzzles](https://github.com/TheEntreveloper/ev-crosswords) ## Capturi ecran [⌊Example of Crossword created with the plugin, and displayed in the frontend of a Wordpress based website.⌉⌊Example of Crossword created with the plugin, and displayed in the frontend of a Wordpress based website.⌉[ Example of Crossword created with the plugin, and displayed in the frontend of a Wordpress based website.

It makes it easy to add crosswords and word search puzzles to pages on your WordPress website, with or without AI help. ### What doesn’t this plugin do? It does not directly create puzzles from a simple prompt. Instead, it gives you an easy way to use AI tools to create lists of words and hints (including generating them straight from an existing article), which are then used to generate a crossword or word search grid. ### Does this plugin require anything else? Yes. It requires the EntGenAI companion plugin to be installed and active. AI generation features also require an API key from a supported provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or a local Ollama installation). ### Does this plugin modify any core WordPress, plugin or theme files? No, it does not. ### How do I add a puzzle to a page or post? Puzzles are added as real Gutenberg blocks, not a shortcode. Add the „Ev Crossword Viewer” or „Ev Word Search Viewer” block from the block inserter in any page or post, then use its sidebar panel to pick any puzzle you’ve already generated. The puzzle is stored in the block itself, so the page doesn’t depend on anything else to display it. ### Can I use the same puzzle on more than one page? Yes. Every puzzle you generate is saved on its own, independently of any page. Add the viewer block to as many pages as you like and pick the same puzzle each time. ### Pro’s daily automation appended a puzzle to one of my articles — can I remove it from there but keep using it elsewhere? Yes. Deleting the auto-appended puzzle section from an article only removes it from that article; the underlying crossword and word search aren’t deleted. Add them to any other page the same way you would any generated puzzle – via the viewer block’s picker, or by cutting the block and pasting it elsewhere. You keep full control over where, or whether, each puzzle appears. ### Is there a paid version? Yes — EV Puzzles Pro is available now, with scheduled/automated puzzle publishing, reader streaks and leaderboards, deeper retention analytics, multi-site licensing for agencies, and no „Puzzles powered by Entreveloper” credit link on your puzzle viewers. See https://entreveloper.com/pricing/ for current plans and pricing. ### Why does my puzzle show a „Puzzles powered by Entreveloper” link? That link only appears on the free version, on every crossword, word search, and Checkered Force viewer. It links to https://entreveloper.com/pricing/. Upgrading to Pro removes it automatically — no separate setting to toggle. ## Recenzii ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/72a391108726041127bbc492e873caf1c61a2333db3cab87b7533b097d8931be? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Really cool](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/really-cool-76/)󠁿 [migue17](https://profiles.wordpress.org/migue17/) 27 noiembrie 2022 It works perfectly.
