原文外掛簡介
Sudwire Newsroom watches the official sources for your area day and night, picks the stories your readers care about and drafts them for your site. This plugin brings the drafts into WordPress, where your editor checks them and publishes.
How it works
Tell Scout, our sources assistant, the area you cover. It finds the police, council, school, weather and transport websites near you and checks each one works.
Sudwire checks them every few minutes. Each new item gets a score for how much it matters locally, and routine notices are left out.
The stories worth running arrive here as posts waiting for review, with a headline, a photo you’re free to use, the category, tags and a link to the source.
Your editor reads, edits if needed and publishes.
What you get
Articles written for your site, in its language and at the length you choose, never the source’s own text.
Official sources only. Other news outlets can be followed as leads, or credited when you choose to write from them.
Photos that are free to reuse, credited under the article.
Stories about crime, courts, deaths, minors, health emergencies or elections always wait for an editor.
New articles arrive as Pending review or as Drafts, as you prefer, and the summary fills the meta description in Yoast SEO, Rank Math or SEOPress.
A Newsroom screen showing what’s waiting, what your team decided and how many readers each article had.
Bin a draft and say why, and the next drafts improve. Sudwire also skips stories your site already ran.
More than 40 languages, from English and Spanish to Polish and Japanese.
A Sudwire Newsroom account is required. You can see what it writes first: once Scout has found your sources, Sudwire writes 5 sample drafts for your area, before you connect your site and with no card. Plans are priced by articles a day, with a 14-day free trial on Starter and Pro: https://sudwire.com/pricing
External services
This plugin connects to the Sudwire Newsroom service (https://app.sudwire.com, or the address set on the plugin’s screen). It is needed to receive the articles drafted for your site.
The connection only starts when an administrator connects the site. With “Connect with Sudwire”, the browser opens the service’s connect page with this site’s address, its name and a return address in your WordPress admin. After the administrator confirms there, the plugin exchanges a one-time code with the service for the connection key. An administrator can also paste a key instead.
Once connected, every five minutes and when you press “Check now”:
the plugin asks the service for new articles, sending your connection key;
it confirms each article it received, sending the WordPress post ID and status;
when an editor publishes or bins one of these articles, it sends the decision, the editor’s display name, whether the text was edited and, once it’s published, the article’s address on this site;
when an editor says why they binned one of these articles, it sends the reason they picked and the note they wrote;
it sends the headlines of the posts this site published in the last 48 hours that didn’t come from Sudwire, with their dates, so the service doesn’t draft a story the site already ran;
it sends the plugin and WordPress version numbers, the site’s time zone, and how many times each of these articles was read (one number per article);
when they change, it sends the file names of the photos the site used in the last 30 days (featured images of recent posts and images added to the Media Library), and the addresses they were downloaded from when WordPress kept them, so the service doesn’t pick the same photos again. Only names and addresses are sent, never the files;
the service may call this site’s /wp-json/sudwire-newsroom/v1/verify address to confirm the plugin runs on it. The answer is a one-time code derived from the connection key; the key itself is never sent.
Reads are counted when a visitor opens one of these articles: the page sends the post ID to this site’s own /wp-json/sudwire-newsroom/v1/read address, which adds one to the article’s total. No cookies are set. So that a reader who reloads isn’t counted twice, a salted one-way hash of their IP address is kept on this site for 30 minutes, then deleted; it is never sent anywhere. Logged-in users, previews and known robots are not counted.
These two addresses stay open when a security plugin limits the REST API to signed-in users. The rest of the REST API keeps the site’s own rule.
No other site content, visitor data or user data is sent. A draft binned in the Sudwire dashboard is moved to the bin here too, if it’s still waiting for review. Featured photos are downloaded from the addresses the service provides (the official source’s website, Wikimedia Commons, Openverse, Pixabay or Pexels). When one doesn’t download, the plugin asks the service for its own copy of that photo, sending only the article’s number.
