Overview

About this plugin

BlinkHub turns official government press releases into ready-to-publish news copy. This plugin pulls the countries and language you choose into your site as drafts (or published posts, if you prefer), keeps the source’s licence notice and a link to the original release, and never overwrites your own canonical URL.

When one of these stories is published on your site, the plugin reports the post URL back to BlinkHub so the original source can see where it ran. Organisations’ paid press releases are always labelled “Press release”, and you can switch them off.
