maca Njuvs [news]

maca Njuvs is a WordPress plugin for those who want to publish news and events in an easy and stylish way. Create content in the admin area, display it with Gutenberg blocks on the website, let visitors subscribe to the calendar — and optionally share to Facebook and Instagram.

What is maca Njuvs

maca Njuvs is a standalone WordPress plugin that brings news and events together in one place. Unlike regular blog posts, maca Njuvs has its own database tables and an admin interface tailored for managing information that should be clearly visible to visitors — for example campaigns, opening hours, live music, tastings, or other events.

Everything is managed directly in WordPress. The content is displayed on the website via Gutenberg blocks or shortcodes, and you do not need to build your own solutions to show news in a banner, list, or calendar.

maca Njuvs is especially well suited for restaurants, cafés, hotels and other businesses that regularly want to inform guests about what is happening — but it works for all WordPress websites that need structured news and event management.
