TMfeed - WordPress Embeddable Post Widgets For Elementor — is a powerful and intuitive WordPress plugin designed specifically for Elementor users who want to display their posts in a more engaging and flexible way. This tool allows you to generate embeddable widgets of your posts, which can be placed on any page or even on external websites. With a variety of pre-designed layouts and deep customization options, you can create beautiful post grids, carousels, lists, and tickers that perfectly match your site's design.
The core functionality of TMfeed revolves around its simplicity and integration with Elementor. You can easily select which posts to display based on categories, tags, author, or custom post types. Customize everything from the layout and number of columns to typography, colors, and image settings. The plugin is fully responsive, ensuring your post widgets look great on all devices, from desktops to smartphones. Whether you're a blogger, a news site, or a business, TMfeed provides the tools you need to create compelling content displays that capture visitor attention and encourage them to explore more of your site.
Why This Is Important
Are your visitors leaving your site after reading just one article? The average bounce rate for websites is over 40%, meaning almost half of your visitors leave without interacting further. This is often due to a lack of engaging pathways to other relevant content. Manually creating "Related Posts" sections is time-consuming and often looks unprofessional.
TMfeed directly solves this problem. By creating visually appealing, dynamic, and embeddable post widgets, you can strategically place relevant content exactly where your users are most engaged. This simple act can increase pageviews per session by up to 15% and decrease your bounce rate significantly. Instead of dead ends, every page becomes a gateway to more of your valuable content, boosting user retention and improving your site's overall SEO performance.

FAQ
Can I use TMfeed to display custom post types, like products or portfolio items?
Yes, absolutely. TMfeed is designed to be highly flexible. In the widget's query settings within Elementor, you can select any registered post type on your site, including WooCommerce products, portfolio entries, events, or any other custom post type you have created.
How does the "embeddable" feature work? Can I put the widget on a non-WordPress site?
The embeddable feature works by generating a simple JavaScript snippet or an iframe code. You can copy this code and paste it into the HTML of any website, whether it's built on WordPress, Shopify, or is a static HTML page. The widget will then pull the post data from your WordPress site and display it on the external page, updating automatically as you publish new content.
Will this plugin slow down my website?
TMfeed is built with performance in mind. It uses efficient queries to fetch posts and includes features like lazy loading for images, which means images are only loaded as the user scrolls down the page. This significantly reduces the initial page load time. When configured properly, the plugin has a minimal impact on your site's performance.
Is TMfeed compatible with the free version of Elementor?
Yes, TMfeed is fully compatible with both the free version of Elementor and Elementor Pro. You can use all of its core features to create and style your post widgets without needing to purchase Elementor Pro. However, it also integrates perfectly with Pro features if you have them.
