<h4>✅ Everything You Need — Completely Free</h4>
5 Ready-to-Use Display Layouts
Pick the layout that fits your design and switch it per shortcode:
<ul>
<li>Grid — responsive card grid, ideal for magazine-style pages and news portals</li>
<li>List — clean vertical list, perfect for sidebars and content-heavy pages</li>
<li>Carousel — auto-playing or click-to-advance article slider</li>
<li>Hero — large featured article with supporting cards alongside</li>
<li>Minimal — ultra-light display for footers, widgets and embeds</li>
</ul>
Unlimited RSS / Atom Feeds
Add as many sources as you need. Each feed gets its own category, enabling tight per-shortcode filtering without any extra configuration.
Powerful Shortcode System
One shortcode gives you full control over every news block:
<pre><code>[newssync layout="grid" limit="6" category="Tech"]
</code></pre>
Available attributes:
<ul>
<li><code>layout</code> — grid, list, carousel, hero, minimal</li>
<li><code>limit</code> — how many articles to display</li>
<li><code>category</code> — show only feeds from a specific category</li>
<li><code>offset</code> — skip the first N articles (great for multi-column layouts)</li>
<li><code>orderby</code> / <code>order</code> — sort by date or title, ascending or descending</li>
<li><code>show_image</code>, <code>show_date</code>, <code>show_excerpt</code>, <code>show_source</code> — toggle each element independently</li>
<li><code>excerpt_length</code> — set how many words appear in the preview</li>
</ul>
Auto-Import as WordPress Posts
Enable the built-in scheduler and new articles from your feeds become real WordPress posts — fully searchable, categorisable and SEO-friendly. Run imports on a schedule or trigger them manually from the dashboard.
Smart Caching
Each feed is cached independently as a WordPress transient. You control the duration. Zero front-end API calls — output is clean, static HTML.
Works Everywhere
Compatible with the Gutenberg editor (Shortcode block), Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, the Classic Editor and any PHP template.
<h4>🚀 Take It Further with DaazSync PRO</h4>
DaazSync PRO is a premium add-on that extends the free plugin with advanced tools for demanding publishers, agencies and power users.
Keyword Filtering per Shortcode 
Display only articles that match specific topics — using simple OR logic or precise AND-groups to show articles at the intersection of two subjects:
<pre><code>[newssync keyword_filter="AI,machine learning|crypto,blockchain,DeFi"]
</code></pre>
→ Shows only articles that mention both AI and a crypto topic.
Site-Wide Advanced Filtering 
Set global include and exclude keyword rules from the admin panel. Every shortcode on every page respects them automatically.
Full-Text Extraction 
Standard RSS feeds only carry a short excerpt. PRO fetches the full article body from the source page — ideal for richer display or AI summaries.
AI-Powered Article Summaries 
Auto-generate article summaries in your language using OpenAI (GPT-4o), Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini or any custom API provider. Bring your own key — no middleman markup.
Managed Feeds Dashboard 
A production-ready feed management table with live status indicators, one-click manual refresh, last-import timestamps and per-feed error reporting.
Detailed Import Logs 
Per-article status, error traces and batch timing — so you always know exactly what happened during an import and can diagnose feed problems in seconds.
Priority Support 
Direct email support with a guaranteed 48-hour response.

<h4>Legal Notice</h4>
This plugin displays headlines, short descriptions and images from original articles and always links back to the source. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure compliance with the terms of service of each RSS feed they aggregate.
<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin fetches RSS feeds from URLs configured by the site administrator. This is the core function of the plugin.
<h4>RSS Feeds</h4>
When fetching a feed, the plugin sends a standard HTTP GET request to the feed URL configured by the administrator. This request includes your server IP address and a browser user-agent string. No personal data of your site visitors is ever transmitted. Feeds are always fetched server-side, never client-side.
Feeds are fetched automatically at the interval set in the plugin settings (default: 30 minutes) and cached in your WordPress database.
The plugin ships with a few example RSS feeds for demonstration purposes only. These are all standard, publicly available RSS feeds. The administrator can remove, replace or add any feed at any time. The plugin has no affiliation with any of the default example feed sources.
<h4>Google Fonts (optional)</h4>
If the administrator selects a Google Font in the Design settings, the plugin enqueues that font from fonts.googleapis.com. This causes the visitor’s browser to connect to Google’s servers, sending the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent to Google.
To avoid this entirely, select “System default” in the typography settings — no external font resources will be loaded.
<ul>
<li>Service provider: Google LLC</li>
<li>Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy</li>
<li>Terms of Service: https://fonts.google.com/attribution</li>
</ul>
<h4>Image Proxy (optional)</h4>
If the image proxy is enabled, the plugin fetches images from external domains and stores them in your WordPress uploads folder. This is a server-to-server request only — no visitor data is involved in this process.
