Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Guardian News Headlines

Yes, you can have as many widgets as you like. Each widget is specific to a news category.

Yes. By picking a news category relevant to your blog's topic, you can add some relevant and up-to-date content to your site.

This plugin fetches the headlines from the Guardian's Open Platform Content API. It then caches the headlines for five minutes. When that five minutes is up, the next time someone visits your site the plugin will again retrieve fresh data. So, when a new article is published on the Guardian website in your category, all your visitors will see that headline within five minutes. (Assuming you've chosen the 'latest' feed.)

The widget inherits your theme's style. It uses css for positioning and thumbnail size only - all other style elements, including font, text size and colour etc. are set by your theme. The plugin also gives four options for the Guardian's logo to fit with any background.
