maca Njuvs is a WordPress plugin for those who want to publish news and events in a simple and elegant way. Create content in the admin area, display it on the site with Gutenberg blocks, 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 adapted to handle information that should be shown clearly to visitors — for example campaigns, opening hours, live music, tastings, or other happenings.
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 any WordPress website that needs structured news and event management.
