A simple widget plugin that fetches the latest Arabic RSS news from aljazeera.net. The plugin creates a widget to place in any “widget area” on your site. It has a variable width and height and should be very flexible with your layout.
Features:
- Choose number of news items to show
- Show or hide the description of each news item
- Show or hide Aljazeera logo and link
- News is cached for 10 minutes to decrease the load on your web server
Note: This is an UNOFFICIAL plugin and there is no relation between the developer and Aljazeera news channel
If you want to change the widget style, add your style to the “custom.css” file in the plugin directory “/wp-content/plugins/aljazeera-rss/”.
As from May 2017, aljazeera.net website is blocked in some Arab countries like Egypt and UAE. If your web server is located in one of these countries, the plugin won’t be able to fetch the news. You may look for a workaround like VPN for example.
