Title: Steam News Widget Author: softsultant Published: 22. März 2015 Last modified: 7. Mai 2015 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/steam-news-widget/assets/banner-772x250.jpg?rev=1130085) This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/steam-news-widget/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=1130085) # Steam News Widget By [softsultant](https://profiles.wordpress.org/softsultant/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/steam-news-widget.1.1.1.zip) * [Details](https://de-ch.wordpress.org/plugins/steam-news-widget/#description) * [Reviews](https://de-ch.wordpress.org/plugins/steam-news-widget/#reviews) * [Installation](https://de-ch.wordpress.org/plugins/steam-news-widget/#installation) * [Development](https://de-ch.wordpress.org/plugins/steam-news-widget/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/steam-news-widget/) ## Description The plugin adds a widget that shows news for selected games. #### Configuration Options * Steam Game IDs: Games are referenced by their steam app id. Just enter a comma- separated list of app ids, like «440, 570, 730» (without quotes). You can find the full list of steam app ids at http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamApps/GetAppList/ v0002/ . * Maximum Number of News: The maximum number of news to show. * News Length: It limits the length of shown news. * HTML Template: Allows you to define HTML layout of the widget in a way you like. The news data can be extracted with special tags {{some_news.some_property}}. Just put those in a right place. The plugin will replace them with actual data. To iterate through all fetched news use `` tag, e.g. `{{news.text}}`, where {{newslist}} is a predefined value and it points to the news set. * Each news has following properties: - title, e.g. {{news.title}}. - url, e.g. {{news.url}}. - text, e.g. {{news.text}}. - date, e.g {{news.date}}. - time, e.g. {{news.time}}. #### Other Notes * The date/time format as well as the timezone of the news match the ones from WordPress «General Settings». * The widget’s content is updated about every hour. * The plugin requires PHP 5.3.3 or higher. * A special requirement from the data provider: Each page that uses the Steam Web API must contain a link to http://steampowered.com with the text «Powered by Steam». We suggest that you put this link in your footer so it is out of the way but still visible to interested users. ## Screenshots [⌊Screenshot⌉⌊Screenshot⌉[ Screenshot [⌊Screenshot⌉⌊Screenshot⌉[ Screenshot [⌊Screenshot⌉⌊Screenshot⌉[ Screenshot [⌊Widget Options⌉⌊Widget Options⌉[ Widget Options ## Installation 1.
