## Overview

The RSS Reader is a powerful web part that allows users to easily aggregate and display content from multiple RSS feeds on a ::SharePoint Online:: site. It provides a seamless integration with SharePoint, making it straightforward to configure and manage, and can also be hosted in ::Microsoft Teams::.

The web part offers a convenient and efficient way to consolidate and present external content within the SharePoint environment. It helps you keep your sites updated with the latest information and engage your audience with relevant and interesting content from various sources.

### Multiple RSS Sources
Build your own news feed from one or several public RSS channels: news websites, blogs, social media platforms, WordPress-based sites, and even other SharePoint sites - and present them in an organized and customizable way.

Add RSS feed URLs, define the number of items to display, set the refresh interval, and choose the display format that suits your page best. The feed updates automatically at the configured interval, so the content stays fresh without any manual work.

### Media Content Support
Articles look the way they should: media content, such as the article image, is displayed right in the feed, turning a plain list of headlines into an attractive news block. If you prefer a text-only feed, media display can be switched off in the web part settings.

### Layouts That Fit Your Page
Choose from predefined layouts - **Compact**, **Newsletter**, and **Cards** - or let the adaptive layout adjust the feed to the available space on any screen size.

The web part supports dark theme and follows your site's branding, so the news block fits naturally into your portal on desktops, tablets, and smartphones alike.

### Preview and Filter the Content
An instant content preview lets readers glance at an article without leaving the SharePoint page - a quick way to decide whether the full story is worth opening.

Filtering options help you keep the feed focused: display only the items that match specific keywords or categories, so your audience sees the news that actually matters to them.

## Customer Questions

### What does RSS Reader do?

RSS Reader is a SharePoint Online and Microsoft Teams web part that aggregates content from multiple external RSS feeds — news sites, blogs, industry portals — and shows it on your intranet. You add feed URLs, set the number of items and the refresh interval, and pick a layout; feeds are refreshed automatically. See the [product page](https://vitextra.com/en/products/rss-news).

### Which layouts and display options are available?

Three layouts are available — **Compact**, **Newsletter** and **Cards** — all of them responsive. Articles can show images and an instant content preview, and titles of articles you have already opened are dimmed so you can see what is new. The web part supports dark theme and the SharePoint Brand Center, so it follows your site branding.

### Can users filter or search the aggregated news?

Yes. Items can be filtered by RSS source, by keywords or by clickable category tags, sorted newest first, oldest first or by source, and — with the optional search box — searched by title, description, author and source directly in the browser. Category tags and the source filter are keyboard-operable and have ARIA labels for accessibility.

### What happens if a feed is temporarily unavailable?

The last successfully loaded content is cached in the browser session, so the web part renders instantly on page load and keeps showing the cached items if a feed refresh temporarily fails. Once the source is reachable again, the content is updated at the next refresh interval.

### Which platforms and languages are supported?

RSS Reader supports SharePoint Online and Microsoft Teams (as a hosted tab) and is localized into more than 40 interface languages. SharePoint Server on-premises is not supported. Pricing is per tenant with monthly or annual billing; installation follows [Installing a Cloud-based Product](https://vitextra.com/en/support/kb/10035).
