ToolTiki for WordPress

Add the ToolTiki Tool block, search for a tool, publish. That is the whole setup — there is no account to make, no key to paste and no settings screen to work through.

The tool is loaded from tooltiki.com and rendered inside your page. It tells WordPress how tall it needs to be as the visitor uses it, so a result that appears, an option that expands or an error that shows up never gets clipped and never leaves a gap.

Three ways in, all rendering the same thing:

• the ToolTiki Tool block, for the WordPress block editor
• [tooltiki tool="age-calculator"], for the classic editor, Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Oxygen and any field that accepts a shortcode
• tooltiki_embed( 'age-calculator' ), for a theme template

The tool runs in an iframe, which is a wall in both directions. Your global input styles, your button rules, your CSS framework and your other plugins stop at the edge of it — and so does everything on ToolTiki's side. A calculator that looks right here looks right on your site, whatever your theme does to form fields.

That isolation is also why the tool improves without you doing anything. Fixes and new features ship on ToolTiki's side; an embed you placed a year ago is running the current version today.

ToolTiki serves embeds from a separate environment to the rest of the site, built to be privacy-minimal. Embed pages set no advertising cookies, no analytics cookies and no persistent visitor identifier. They run no advertising scripts and show no cookie banner of their own, so an embed does not put a second consent dialog inside your page.

What a visitor types into a tool is calculated in their own browser and is not sent to ToolTiki. The frame reports its own height back to your page and nothing else.

Loading an embed is still a connection to another website: the visitor's browser requests the tool from tooltiki.com, so standard request information such as IP address, user agent and referring page is processed as part of delivering it. That is written out in full in the plugin's listing and in our privacy policy, because it is the sort of thing you should be able to check rather than take on trust.

Nearly all of them. Every calculator, converter, picker and generator on this site works inside a frame, because they were all built to run entirely in the browser in the first place — converters, everyday and maths calculators, finance and business calculators, health calculators, the whole home and workshop set, date and time tools, colour tools, text tools, the random pickers and wheels, and the QR and barcode generators.

The tools left out are the file ones: the PDF utilities, the image converters and the invoice maker. They end by handing you a file, and a sandboxed frame on someone else's page is the wrong place for a download. Those are better as a visit than as a widget.

In WordPress, go to Plugins → Add New, search for ToolTiki, install and activate. Then edit any page or post and add the ToolTiki Tool block.

There is nothing to configure afterwards. The plugin keeps one cached list of tool names so the editor can search it, and that is the only thing it stores; uninstalling removes it.

Every tool carries a small Powered by ToolTiki link. It is part of what ToolTiki serves rather than something the plugin adds to your page, in the same way an embedded video carries its host's mark.

It is how free tools stay free to use and free to embed. Nothing else is added to your site: no hidden links, no injected keywords, no advertising, and no changes to content you did not place yourself.
