Bible references on autopilot for WordPress

Drop the plugin into any WordPress site and every Bible reference in your posts becomes a beautiful link with a verse tooltip on hover. Powered by the Midvash public API.

What the plugin does

Auto-detection

Recognizes "John 3:16", "Jo 3.16", "Salmos 23", ranges like "Rom 8:28-30" — in PT, EN and ES, with accents and abbreviations.

Hover tooltips

Every reference shows the actual verse text on hover, fetched from the Midvash API and cached for performance.

35+ Bible versions

Pick the default version per site — NVT, NVI, NLT, KJV, RVR1960 and 30+ more across 3 languages.

Customizable styling

Custom link color, underline style, open in new tab, dark mode support — no CSS skills needed.

Install in under a minute

No configuration needed. Optional settings under Settings → Midvash.
