GMS Universal Posts Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
GMS Universal Posts lets you display public posts from another WordPress website on your WordPress site.
Enter the target WordPress website URL in the plugin settings, then use the shortcode [gmsup_posts] in Elementor’s Shortcode widget or in WordPress content.
The plugin uses the target site’s standard WordPress REST API. It does not require an account, API key, paid service, or connection to a GMS server.
Features:
- Configure any compatible WordPress website as the source.
- Display post title, featured image, excerpt, date, category, and original post link.
- Category dropdown.
- Responsive 1–4 column card layout.
- Configurable number of posts.
- Configurable cache duration.
- Elementor Shortcode widget support.
- Uses WordPress HTTP API and safe remote requests.
- No tracking or analytics.
- No external account or license key.
External Service
This plugin connects to the WordPress website URL entered by the site administrator under Settings GMS Universal Posts.
It requests publicly available information from the target site’s standard WordPress REST API endpoints:
/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/wp-json/wp/v2/categories
Featured-image information is obtained through the REST API’s embedded media data.
The plugin does not send personal data to GMS or another third-party service. Temporary API responses may be stored as WordPress transients on the local WordPress installation.
The availability and terms of the target site’s REST API are controlled by the target site owner.
Shortcode
Basic:
[gmsup_posts]
Six posts in three columns:
[gmsup_posts posts="6" columns="3"]
Start with a specific category:
[gmsup_posts posts="6" columns="3" category="sports"]
Hide the View All Posts link:
[gmsup_posts posts="6" columns="3" view_all="no"]<h3>Requirements</h3>
The target website must:
- Run WordPress.
- Expose its public REST API.
- Allow public access to the posts and categories endpoints.
Some sites may disable or restrict their REST API. Such sites cannot be used as a source by this plugin.
Privacy
GMS Universal Posts does not collect or transmit personal data to GMS.
The plugin connects to the configured target website and requests public post and category information. WordPress transients may temporarily cache the API response locally.
