    hello dear Fahad,

    many thanks for the quick reply. I love to do some excerpts from google-alert


    like so:
    see more here on this information page https://support.google.com/alerts/

    i look for an add-on that gives us the ability to display excerpts along with the feed item titles. It’s perfect for injecting some life and into our feed item display. There could be are a number of excerpt settings and thumbnail settings available, along with the shortcode parameters.

    what is needed: what is aimed: we should be able to set up Google News feeds directly from the feedly search box and then we should be able to use a Google Alert RSS feed to follow the Alerts in a widget on our wordpress-site.

    to give a example.

    i have a website that is presenting news about a writer: – for example we take harold pinter.

    so i look for news that are created by google-alerts – with the special search-term harold pinter

    google-alerts puts togehter some news on that topic. They provide an alert – news-stream.

    this news-stram i want to get like a RSS-Feed. I want to display the feeded news in a widtget of my wordpress-page.

    is this possible

    Yes, it is possible. RSS Feed Widget simply works with all kind of RSS feeds, there is no problem with Google alerts specifically because Google alerts are also available as RSS. Where are you stuck in using it?

    hello dear Fahad, many many thanks – great to hear from you.

    i really love the plugin – at the moment i am in the testing phase… At the moment i try to figure out if it fits to the needs..

    i want to use your RSS Feed Widget-plugin, which is very featurerich1!!

    question: can i configure a word-count – so that i can truncate the feed lenght?
    What is meant: if i have the following feed – item:

    Berlin, 18. Oktober 2016. Miley Cyrus ist im Team Volksbühne. Beim Einlass l?uft ihr Song We can’t stop. Darin hei?t es: “Doing whatever we want / This is our house / This is our rules / And we can’t stop”. In der letzten Spielzeit Castorfs hei?t es Abschied nehmen. Nach einem nostalgisch-sch?nen Marthaler folgt nun einer der besten Inszenierungen René Polleschs seit den Solo-Abenden mit Fabian Hinrichs. Es fehlte ihm zuletzt die Traurigkeit, die seinen Witz erst gro? machen. Anders an diesem Abend.
