## 描述

Periscope lets you replace the default “WordPress Events and News” dashboard widget
with a fully customizable version that displays news from RSS feeds and events from
the WordPress.org API.

Perfect for agencies, developers, and site owners who want to display relevant news
sources on the WordPress dashboard instead of the default WordPress.org news.

#### Features

 * Replace or complement the default WordPress news widget
 * Customizable widget title
 * Events section with WordPress community events and editable location
 * News section with aggregated RSS feeds sorted by date
 * Add unlimited RSS feeds with URL validation before adding
 * Configure items per feed and maximum total items displayed
 * Configurable footer links for both events and news sections
 * Automatic feed caching with configurable duration
 * Fully translatable (all URLs are translatable for locale support)
 * Clean, native WordPress admin styling
 * Two-column settings page with meta box layout
 * Cache management tools

#### Default Feeds

The plugin comes pre-configured with these feeds (you can change them):

 * WordPress News (wordpress.org)
 * Matt Mullenweg’s blog (ma.tt)
 * Make WordPress Project
 * WordPress España News
 * AyudaWP

### External services

This plugin connects to the following external services:

#### WordPress.org Events API

This plugin uses the WordPress.org Events API to retrieve WordPress community events(
meetups, WordCamps) near the user’s location. The user’s configured location and
locale are sent to the API when the dashboard widget is loaded or when the location
is updated in the settings page.

 * Service: [WordPress.org Events API](https://api.wordpress.org/events/1.0/)
 * Data sent: city/location name, user locale, and timezone
 * [WordPress.org Privacy Policy](https://wordpress.org/about/privacy/)

#### RSS feeds

This plugin fetches RSS feeds from URLs configured by the site administrator. By
default it includes feeds from wordpress.org, ma.tt, make.wordpress.org, and ayudawp.
com, but administrators can add, remove, or change feeds in the settings page. Feed
content is cached locally for the configured cache duration.

 * Data sent: standard HTTP requests to the configured feed URLs
 * No personal user data is transmitted to the feed providers

## 安装

 1. Upload the `periscopio` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Go to Settings > Periscope to configure your feeds
 4. Visit your Dashboard to see the new widget

## 常见问题

### Can I hide the default WordPress news widget?

Yes, there’s an option in the settings to hide the default “WordPress Events and
News” widget.

### How many feeds can I add?

There’s no hard limit. However, adding too many feeds may slow down your dashboard.
We recommend 5-10 feeds maximum. Each feed URL is validated before it can be added.

### How often are feeds updated?

By default, feeds are cached for 12 hours. You can change this in the settings (
1-72 hours) or manually clear the cache.

### Can I customize the footer links?

Yes. Both the events and news sections have configurable footer links (2 per section)
that you can customize in the settings page.

### Are the URLs translatable?

Yes. All default URLs (feeds, footer links) are wrapped in translation functions
so each locale can point to their own resources.
