News
The News module displays the three most recent stories from an RSS feed. Each news item links to its original source. The module can pull from any RSS feed source, but it may be useful to pull a feed from a specific WordPress category.
How do you figure out what a WordPress category's RSS feed is?
Main Site Feed
For most WordPress installations, the main RSS URL is the site URL with /feed/ appended to the end. For example, the main RSS feed URL for NC State News is https://news.ncsu.edu/feed/.
Category Feed
To use a feed from a specific category, the URL can be created from the site URL/category/CATEGORY-SLUG/feed/, where CATEGORY-SLUG is replaced with the slug of the intended category feed. For example, the RSS feed URL for the 'Campus Life' category of NC State News is https://news.ncsu.edu/category/campus-life/feed/.
Tag Feed
Similar to category feeds, feeds based on tags may also be created. For example, the feed URL for tag 'Horticultural Science' would be https://news.ncsu.edu/tag/horticultural-science/feed/.
