Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about FetchWire — Remote News Feed for Elementor

No. FetchWire works with the WordPress REST API, which has been enabled by default since WordPress 4.7. As long as the source site has not deliberately disabled its REST API, FetchWire will work without any changes on their end.

Log in to the source site's WordPress dashboard and go to Posts → Categories (or Posts → Tags). Click the item you want to edit — the numeric ID appears in the browser address bar as tag_ID=123. Alternatively, hover over the category name in the list and the ID will appear in the status bar link.

Confirm the source URL is a live WordPress site with the REST API active by visiting https://example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/posts directly in a browser — you should see JSON output. Check that the category or tag ID you entered exists on the source site and has published posts. Some security or caching plugins on the source site block REST API requests from external domains. Contact the source site's administrator to whitelist external REST API access.

Change any widget setting (e.g. toggle the section heading on and off) and save the page. This generates a new transient key and triggers a fresh fetch on the next page load.

Yes. Each FetchWire widget instance maintains its own source URL and its own cache. Drop as many instances as you need and point each at a different source.

Not yet. The current version fetches standard posts via /wp-json/wp/v2/posts. Custom post type support is planned for a future release.

Yes, as long as the /wp-json/wp/v2/posts endpoint is publicly accessible and returns the standard WP REST API response format with _embed support.

No. FetchWire makes server-side requests from your WordPress install to the source site — no visitor data is involved, and no third-party scripts are loaded on your frontend.

Yes. As of version 1.3.0, FetchWire includes a native Gutenberg block that works in the standard WordPress block editor — no Elementor needed. Search for "FetchWire News" in the block inserter.

If the remote request fails and no cached data exists, FetchWire renders an empty state notice in place of the feed. If cached data exists, it will continue to display until it expires.
