   and social media channels.

 * Simple editing features to change messaging per announcement.
 * Flexible options to change distribution channels per announcement.

For information on plans and pricing, please visit the IRM website here. [www.irmau.com](https://www.irmau.com/site/news/newsroom-plans-and-prices)

#### Styling List Pages & Class Names

List pages that are shown from your IRM site can be styled using the following class
names. Please note that they will take on any default list styles that you already
have on your existing WordPress site. List pages start with the shortcode irmlist
and then the category for the list.

The list comes with some basic formatting which can be overridden with the css classes.

#### Class Names

 * table.newsitems : the container for the table where the articles are listed.
 * div.article : wrapped around each list item.
 * span.articleDate : for the list item date.
 * span.fileSizeLabel : the wording “File Size”.
 * span.fileSize : the size of the file.
 * div.ItemTickerCode : if the item has an associated ticker code it will show up
   here.
 * .article a : targets the link and title for the article.
 * span.articleBrief : the brief if any for the article.

## Installation

 1. The plugin can be installed via the plugins / add new menu in wordpress. Upload
    the provided zip file when prompted in wordpress. Once installed you can access
    the plugin via Settings / IRM Newsroom in wordpress back end.
 2. Add the sitekey provided to you which should be something like http and then irm5.
    live.irmau.com press save changes to update the setting. If you have entered the
    site key properly it should show a list of your pages below.
 3. Under the menu List Page Shortcodes and Flat Page Shortcodes you will find your
    pages from the irm version of your site.
 4. If your theme supports it you can also import the menu from your IRM site into 
    wordpress, it will however link back to your IRM site rather than the wordpress
    site so this may be useful only if you are replicating the irm theme on your wordpress
    blog.
 5. The plugin also comes with a feature that can connect your wordpress blog to your
    IRM site, and when you publish a new blog post or update an existing one it can
    be published on your IRM Corporate site as well as being sent to subscribers and
    social media channels using Newsroom.

## FAQ

### How is IRM Newsroom integrated with my existing website?

The process of integrating IRM Newsroom into your existing website is seamless. 
We provide various technical integration methods depending on the nature of your
own website. IRM Newsroom integrates seamlessly with IRM HQi websites.

IRM Newsroom comes complete with its own instance of IRM HQi, where you can view
all news and announcements, as well as manage your subscriber database and more.

### How does IRM Newsroom know that I have lodged an ASX Announcement through ASX Online?

Within moments of receiving your ASX lodgment confirmation email, IRM will also 
be notified and your Newsroom distribution process activated, including your Newsroom
notification email automatically generated for you to approve the distribution process.

### Can I choose which news is published where?

Yes, you have complete control of what news is published. You can set up different
defaults by type, and override them for particular pieces of news. You can publish
to all channels (including website, email subscribers, Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn),
or to selected channels. The choice is with you.

### My company doesn’t have any social media channels, can IRM help to set them up?

Yes, IRM offers Social Media set up packages to assist companies to engage with 
audiences through social media.

### We generate a lot of news – do I have to decide what to do with every article?

IRM Newsroom gives you control over how each type of news item is managed – you 
can opt for automatic or manual distribution. The choice is yours. Archiving is 
also available.

### Does IRM Newsroom keep my website news up-to-date?

can be kept up-to date with very little effort.

and published. You can also publish items that were archived for a later date.

### But what if I don’t have an IRM or WordPress website? Can I still get the benefits of IRM Newsroom?

Of course, we’re happy to work with your developers to provide a JSON feed that 
they can use to display your announcements on your website.

What does this mean? It means that you still get the great benefits of using IRM
Newsroom mentioned above including the automated and immediate distribution of ASX

### 󠀁[Great Plugin to Automate ASX News Distribution and Install Share Price](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-to-automate-asx-news-distribution-and-install-share-price/)󠁿

 [ppatrianto](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ppatrianto/) May 10, 2022

This plugin works like a charm, once I confirmed the free trial, installed the plugin,
the shortcodes provided just automatically feed in through flawlessly. So now I 
dont need to do much admin work to update company announcements as the plugin does
all the legwork for me. Another great thing about this is the news feed or share
price chart are really easy to be customised by a web developer and since its NOT
an iframe, all the data responsive to all screen sizes. Great job IRM!
