The ‘Display Remote Posts’ plugin always displays the most recent post in each block, and I want to display different posts in different columns. Could you customise the plugin to add an additional parameter for the offset. Anyway, I am looking for a solution to display several news next to each other in columns or blocks.
I use the Block-Editor and Twenty Twenty-Four… but that doesn’t really matter. Because my wish is more fundamental. The ‘Display Remote Posts’ plugin always displays the most recent post in each block, and you want to display different posts in different columns. Claude suggests an addition to the php which then ends with the instruction for different shortcodes. [custom_remote_post feed_url=‘https://example.com/feed’ offset=‘0’] [custom_remote_post feed_url=‘https://example.com/feed’ offset=‘1’] [custom_remote_post feed_url=‘https://example.com/feed’ offset=‘2’] etc. The standard RSS block element offers the possibility to display the lines or blocks… directly in the block editor and without shortcodes. This would of course be easy to use….
We will look into adding an offset parameter to the block settings and get back to you. We do have an huge workload at the moment, however, and scheduling development hours for free plugins will be tricky so I cannot promise that this will be done anytime soon. Do you have a specific deadline?
That would be great, of course I know that there are 2-3 commercial solutions. Unfortunately, these are marketing monsters that are more about collating and analysing content etc. etc. There’s no hurry for me, because then I’ll add the RSS block from the block editor first and later ‘Display Remote Posts’ with images… (or similar). It’s not a commercial site, but a sports club. In one section reference is to be made to another (multi-wordpress is not an option). For me at least, ‘Display different Posts’ with more design freedom would make sense (CSS is ok).
