Integration methods
Overview
HTTP API
Main integration method. All other methods are only implementations of the API.
Direct integration towards the MFN API
On Demand HTTP API
Each request to you site fetches live data directly from the MFN API
Can be used from backend or frontend

Local copies of all news items in your own database
Provides WebSub posthooks to insert new items as they are published
The content can be signed with a HMAC signature according to the WebSub standard
The posthook can also be used just as a "sync trigger"
MFN Loader
Drop-in client side Javascript implementation of the On Demand HTTP API
Delivered as a script-tag with a configuration object that injects content into a specificed DOM element.
Quick to get started and implement
Customizable config and styleable using CSS.
Iframe Widget
For very quick integrations
Cons
Not easy to style from your side
Just basic functionality
Wordpress plugin (Advanced)
For experianced Wordpress users, there is our Wordpress plugin, which integrates with Wordpress's own database and thereby offers extended functionality.
Please note that the plugin integrates directly with the Wordpress database, which means that the Wordpress configuration and other plugins can affect the plugin, and sometimes cause problems. This option thus requires some own administration and is mainly intended for experianced Wordpress users.
Cons: not On Demand
Requires understanding of the WordPress database
