Hi,

I would like to scrape the following URLs and then show the Service Alerts information in one of my WordPress Pages. Every time the scraped data in the URL changes, this page should be updated to show the new scraped data. OR, create a new post every time the scraped data changes. I’m flexible.

URL: https://about.usps.com/newsroom/service-alerts/
URL: https://www.fedex.com/en-us/service-alerts.html
URL: https://www.ups.com/us/en/service-alerts.page

From the above pages, I would like to scrape Service Alerts section and then show the information in my WordPress page like “myexample.com/mypage” OR they could be in 3 separate pages also if that is easier.

Is that possible with the Scraper plugin for WordPress?

Thanks.

Hi, yes you can scrape the service alerts from the above mentioned URLs and display it in the way you want. In your case, creating wordpress shortcode for service alert shall do the job – https://support.wpbots.net/documentation/creating-dynamic-wordpress-shortcode/
