**You can insert RSS feeds to your application to automatically add articles, podcasts, videos from an external source (Wordpress, Twitter...).**

Create your RSS widget using an external plugin and embed it in your app using the [Web component](https://docs.pandasuite.com/essentials/components/web/).

For this example, we selected [Feedwind](https://feed.mikle.com/) (free).

## Create your rss widget

Go to <https://feed.mikle.com/> and create a free account.

Select content source: **RSS Feed**.

Add **Feed URL** and customize the general appearance of your widget.\
Tip: if you have a Wordpress website, the Feed URL is <https://mywordpresswebsite/feed/>

Click **Save & Get Code**. You can use the Widget code or the iFrame version:

- **Widget code:** open an editor, copy-paste the code into a new document, save and add a name. Compress this document into a Zip file.
- **iFrame:** copy the URL only (<https://feed.mike.com/widget/v2/143150/?preloader-text=Loading>...)

## Embed rss widget in your app

Add **Web component** in your app.

In the Properties, if you have chosen:

- Widget code: select **Offline**, choose the ZIP file in **Source** (the **+** of the list imports it) and enter the document name in **File**.
- iFrame: select **Online** and paste the URL
