          Description

          This plugin adds the ability to insert an instance of the Sumo Oyakata game. To do this:
          • It adds a new shortcode that inserts the game. Examples of use:
            [sumoOyakata/]
            Inserts an instance of the game.
          • Also, as standard for my plugins, it adds a shortcode to add the current version number of the plugin:
            [sumoOyakataVersion]
