Croquet Metaverse Web Showcase

Croquet Metaverse Web Showcase is a new WordPress block which allows people to embed a multiuser, collaborative, 3D space into a WordPress site. A WordPress author can drag images, videos, and PDF files into the block to add their content into the virtual 3D space. See the plugin in action in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0cFApaNEBI To install the plugin, search for "Croquet Web Showcase" from your WordPress plugin installation page. You will need a Croquet API Key to use the plugin. You can create a key for free at croquet.io/keys. Your API key will look something like this: 15kkttz5HqJ4mDycjupJA5eiF2CMhdvIgexample While writing a new Post or Page, you can add a Croquet Metaverse Web Showcase block in the block editor, as shown in the first screenshot. Open the sidebar settings for the Web Showcase block by clicking on the the gear icon at the top right corner of your editing page and clicking on the block. In the sidebar settings, you can paste your Croquet API Key into the API Key text field. By default, a new Web Showcase block contains two default assets. If you preview your Post or Page, you can see a 3D art gallery space with those two images. Once you have verified that this works, you can remove the default contents within the Web Showcase block by pressing the "X" button on each row. You can drag your own image, video, and PDF assets into the block to add them. You can rearrange them in the block editor, and they will change positions in the 3D gallery.
