## Description

WP News feed widget is a simple news feed widget, with pagination, to display the
latest news on your website. It will display a list of your latest news titles, 
with the publication time (if today) or the publication date next to it.

In the widget configuration, you can set the number of posts you want to include,
the number of posts per page, chosse a style or disable the plugin’s css if you 
want to apply your own.

The widget is customizable through a lot of filters and actions hooks.

## FAQ

  What are the css classes to style the widget ?

/* Select category dropdown */
 .wp-newsfw-select> .postform {}

    ```
    /* pager wrapper */
    .wpnewsfw-pager,
    .info_text {}

    /* pager items */
    .page_link {}

    .active_page {}

    .no_more {}

    /* prev & next items */
    .visually-hidden {}

    [dir=rtl] .visually-hidden {}

    .previous_link,
    .next_link {}

    /* list items */
