Description

Reader imports posts from external RSS feeds and transforms them into published content within WordPress itself, following the check interval that the administrator defines for each source. It serves those who maintain a curation portal, a news aggregator, or a niche blog and need to republish content from various external sources without copying and pasting each article manually every day.

Key Features of Reader

  • Check at defined interval

  • Publication of imported items

How to Download Reader

The Reader is available for download here in the Ultrapack. After obtaining the file, install via the path Plugins > Add New > Upload plugin of WordPress, activate the plugin and register the RSS feeds in the dedicated dashboard screen.

Those who take care of a portal with several content sources save time by letting the import run automatically instead of following each site manually. The check interval per source helps to maintain a constant publication flow even on busy days.
