FAQ

Is it compatible with my theme/template?

Press releases and press coverage are created as post types and behave as such. This means that you can use all of the standard WordPress functionality to include posts into your templates. Additionally, the [nooz] shortcode allows you to insert press release and press coverage lists on any of your pages (see Nooz Settings > Help > Shortcode Usage).

Is the plugin available in my language?

It might be, check the “nooz/languages” folder to see if a translation is already available for your locale. You can use the included POT file to create a new translation for your region. Read more about WordPress Localization.

Is WordPress Multisite Supported?

We have not done much testing with the plugin on WordPress Multisite. We are doing our best to develop within the WordPress API.

Perfect plugin for a press review…. needed to customize a bit the CSS and with that, you can create a page to put your press coverage with external link, picture and text. Great to create my press review page. You can add items and set the date to any published date. By default, all press coverage will be sorted by published date from most recent to old one. So great for the use of it. Would really love to get new features on this plugin to enhance it: using and adding tags and be able to sort by tags, date, name. or add a type for press coverage (video, radio, tv, press….)

I had trouble customising the press coverage page and the help I received was great! This plugin is easy to use and very flexible. I would recommend it.

I am SO glad I found this plugin to make adding press coverages AND releases super quick and easy. Also, from the looks of it, the devs are quite helpful with regards to support and open to ideas. I look forward to seeing what’s ahead with this plugin!
