Blog and site owners! Now you can embed your favorite Paper.li news on your blog or site and treat readers to fresh news, daily. 

The Nomad widget is available via the Share icon located on the front page of Paper.li, next to the subscribe button.

Click on the icon and you will find all of the information necessary to embed Paper.li on your site. 

The embed can be customized in size and color to fit just about any size column or page width. The minimum size is 390px width and 480px height. 

The widget border and background color can be manually changed to match to your site. All customization parameters are located via the embed overlay and are shown below. If you would like to change font color, simply add the below parameters to the code.

  • fontColor: '#666666'  This is the default color. Hover-over will automatically be calculated.

  • invertIcons: false   This is set to false. Manually change to true if you are working with a dark background and would like the icons to be light in color

The code must be embedded in HTML view, of a page or post for the embed to function. 

Responsive design: If you want to use the Nomad on a page with responsive design, please change the width to "100%" (please set it in quotes). 

The Nomad is a great way to treat your readers to topic centric news, on site! Try it out and enjoy!

 

2. The Headlines widget displays the name of the paper and the topic sections for the day

Please note: We recognized there is an issue for some users who would like to embed the Nomad and Headlines widgets on platforms that strip JS, and have set up a work-around for it.
