Cuerda-Feed-total is a powerful tool for media companies to distribute content from a WordPress site to multiple news portals.
It eliminates the need to develop separate RSS feeds for each partner’s specifications and makes automated content distribution simple.
To start using this plugin, first apply for a free trial license:
Trial Application Form:
https://cuerda.org/trial_form/
After we review your application, we will issue a trial license and send you a guidance email within 1–3 business days.
The trial period is valid until the end of the month following the issue date (JST 23:59:59).
After the trial period ends, distribution-related features will be disabled unless a paid license is activated.
To continue using the plugin after the trial, apply for a paid license:
Paid License Application Form:
https://cuerda.org/paid_form/
A paid contract is established when Cuerda reviews your application and activates the license (it is not auto-accepted upon form submission).
Billing is monthly in arrears (month-end closing, payment due by the end of the following month).
