User Guide
M Chart is a WordPress plugin that lets you create interactive charts and graphs using a spreadsheet-style data entry interface with a live chart preview. Charts can be embedded anywhere on your site via shortcode or the WordPress block editor.
The Charts menu in the WordPress admin also includes a Docs link (it brings you here), along with an Upgrade link for free users and an Account link once you're licensed for M Chart Pro.
