Hi – great looking plugin. Thinking pf purchasing this.
Quick question – in the RSS example, when I click on the link “Land Your Next Web Development Job: The Interview Process” a new window opens up but the content is lost below the bottom of the screen – should there be some scroll bars?
Same result in Firefox 24.0 and Chrome
Many thanks
Sorry, should have said just some of the content is lost, not all
in which example? can you send me an image via my profile pic
thanks
on its way
okay
My Mistake – apologies, I missed the Green tab used to scroll the page. How easy would it be to add an Arrow or such image into this Green scroll tab, just so it is a bit more obvious to users of my site?
you can do that too.
You can also control the color, size and any css property.
Great – I will give it a go once purchased – thanks for the quick response
Nice work!
It would be great if thumbnails would be possible on the main preview block for rss feeds. Or did I overread something?
Not all rss feeds feature an image. Because of that i left this as an optional feature.
If you need such feature then i’ll include it in an update.
Now the image will be displayed (if the rss contains one) when the news is expanded only.
Is it possible in the “not expand” view (white block) somehow?
I will add this feature in the next update. Expect it soon.
Great. I´ll wait for it. I hope “soon” is within weeks. I can´t wait so see this on my websites
Hopefully within 1 week. Hopefully released at the start of next week.
Geat I am looking forward to this
where do you prefer to have the thumbnails ?
Hello, I purchased this product about a week ago and am just coming round to using it. Can this News Widget be made responsive and is the width and height driven by Javascript or CSS?
Thanks.
The width and height of the News Widget can be set via Javascript.
If no width and height is set then the default versions are set.
Please note that there is 2 ways of setting the height either by providing a height widgetHeight or by setting numberOfNews to a value.
Case 1: The overall height is set to widgetHeight .
After that we calculate the number of news to show below/above the open news automatically.
Case 2: We calculate the height based on numberOfNewschosen!
I can provide exact logic if you are interested.
For responsiveness, the widget is built using html5 syntaxes and is all dynamic. It can be easily made responsive!
Hello MoeHaydar, I would like the exact calculation and if you can please do elaborate further on how I can make the News Widget responsive. What settings or controls would I need to change to make the News Widget responsive?
Thanks.
If you set the height of the newsWidget (widgetHeight) then the overall height would be equal that.
The number of news Items shown will be calculated based on the following formula:
widgetHeight -currentNewsHeight / height of news (half above and half below).
Example:
widgetHeight=500px
and currentNewsHeight = 200
andHeightOFNewsItem =60 px
then number of news = (500-200)/80 =300/60=5 (2 on every side)
However if you set the number of News items (numberOfNews) then the height will be equal:
numberOfNews * height of one news + currentNewsHeight
Example:
if numberOfNews=2 (2 on each side, total of 4)
and HeightOFNewsItem =60 px
and currentNewsHeight = 300px
the overall height will be equal to 300+60 *4 = 540px
A way to make this widget responsive is to calculate the width and pass it to the newsReader. (the widget will then do all of the work)
Currently it is not a built in feature.
Could you add the ability to play MP3? I have this feed…http://ngate.libsyn.com/rss
This feed links the MP3 as a link, but I would like to have the ability to play within the plugin.
I will have to look into the matter. If this is not a standard (rss MP3 linking, then i am afraid i cant create a feature specific to 1 person) However i can customize this plugin for your need!
Hi this looks great- Has it been tested in IE7? (unfortunately still have to cater for it as my sector still has lots of IE7 users) – Thanks
Yes the plugin works fine on IE7. Just made sure now!
Awesome plugin, any WP coming soon?
Soon, in the coming month or so.
Very interesting!
Is it easy to integrate to WordPress? Thanks!
This is a jQuery Plugin. You can add it to a wordpress site but it is not a WP plugin, that means you have to edit a bit the page header to add the js file to the site.
I have plans to create a WP version in the future. All you need to do is install the plugin and add shortcodes.
Thank you
