The project I’m building a website for has received a lot of media attention over the past couple of years and I have a couple of hundred news articles to link to. I’m trying to generate a list of news article headlines (hyperlinked to the original news articles around the web) and then the date published in the following format:
This is a News Article Headline, January 03, 2015
This is a News Article Headline, January 02, 2015
This is a News Article Headline, January 01, 2015
I’d like these to be ordered with the latest articles on top.
Here’s an example of what I’m talking about on the old website/template:
http://sandyspringscitycenter.com/news/
These were created manually in a text box, but we have so many links now, that WordPress is timing out when I try to save the page on the backend.
I have the following data in a CSV file:
News Article Headlines
News Article URL
News Article Date
I’d like to import them as “Link” blog posts as follows:
News Article Name > Blog Post Title
News Article URL > Blog Post Link URL
News Article Date > Blog Post Date
Assuming I can figure out the importing part of the process, can you give me any information on how I’d go about creating a custom element in Visual Composer to display them in the desired format? Or is there a better way to accomplish what I am trying to do? I’m not a PHP programmer by any means, but I can hire someone if necessary.
Thanks!
