## Description

This is a Gutenberg block that pulls posts from an RSS feed.

The plugin uses the `fetch_feed` WordPress function to display the entries from 
a feed on your website (https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/fetch_feed).

### Requirements

Gutenberg has to be installed on your WordPress instance in order to use this plugin.

### Configuration

Once the plugin is installed, you’ll first need to enter the URL of your feed URL.
There is a helpful button for validating the feed URL. If there is something wrong,
an error will appear.

Here are the available feed options:
 1. Number of posts to be shown on the front-
end. The default number is 10. 2. Whether to show the descriptions of the posts 
on the front-end. 3. Whether to show the dates of the posts on the front-end. 4.
Whether to show the content of the posts on the front-end.

### WordPress Hooks

There are a few WordPress hooks that allows you to modify the output. All of them
are related to the front-end.

**Actions**

    ```
    grf_before_items -- called before displaying the feed on your site.

    grf_before_item -- called before each feed entry.

    grf_after_item -- called after each feed entry.

    grf_after_items -- called after all listed entries.
    ```

**Filters**

    ```
    grf_frontend_output -- allows you to modify the HTML markup that will be displayed on the site.<h3>Front-end error messages</h3>
    ```

In case, a feed isn’t configured or it isn’t a valid one, the following messages
might appear on the page that uses the custom block:
 – Missing feed URL: `Please
set the URL of the RSS feed through the WordPress dashboard.` – Incorrect feed: `
Please make sure the provided URL is a valid feed.` – No posts: `No feed items found.`
