## Description

Mahjong Tiles adds a shortcode `[tile]` that makes adding Mahjong tiles to your 
posts easy. The plugin comes with a set of tile images (CC licensed images, courtesy
of Jerry Crimson Mann).

## Installation

 1. Upload `mahjong-tiles` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Use the `[tile]` shortcode in your posts

## FAQ

### What tiles are included and how do I display them?

The format of the shortcode is `[tile tile="X"]`, where X is a two-letter abbreviation
for the tile.

The basic tiles – dots, bamboos and characters – are numbered d1-d9 for dots, b1-
b9 for bamboos and
 c1-c9 for characters.

Winds are ew (East), sw (South), ww (West), and nw (North).

Dragons are rd (red), gd (green), and wd (white).

Seasons are s1-s4 and flowers are f1-f4.

The tile identifiers are case-insensitive.

### How can I replace tile images?

The default tile images are stored in `/wp-content/plugins/mahjong-tiles/tile_images/`
folder. If
 there’s a `tile_images` folder in your theme folder (for example `/wp-
content/themes/twenty-fifteen/tile_images/`, the plugin will prefer the tile images
found in that folder.

The tile images need to be in PNG format and named exactly as they are in the plugin
folder.

### I already have another plugin that uses the shortcode `[tile]`

Mahjong Tiles also registers shortcode `[mahjongtile]`, which can be used instead
of `[tile]`.

### Image tile credits

The image tiles that come with the plugin are created by Jerry Crimson Mann and 
can be used under
