Free Price County News Widget — Embed on Your Site

Show the latest Price County news on your website — completely free. Just copy and paste one line of code. No signup, no API key, no maintenance.

What It Looks Like

Two live examples — light theme (left) and dark theme (right). Both auto-update with our latest news.

Light Theme — “park falls”

Dark Theme — “phillips”

How to Add It to Your Site

Step 1: Choose your city or keyword

Step 2: Copy this code and paste it anywhere in your website’s HTML:

<div id="pc-news"></div>
<script src="https://pricecounty.fun/wp-content/plugins/pc-local-news/embed.js"
        data-pc-keyword="YOUR_CITY_HERE"
        data-pc-limit="5"
        async>
</script>

Step 3: Replace YOUR_CITY_HERE with your city (e.g., park falls, phillips, catawba, fifield)

That’s it. The widget auto-updates every 2 hours with our latest news matching your keyword.

Why We Offer This Free

Price County Fun is a local journalism project covering Price County, Wisconsin. We believe local news should be easy to share. If you run a local business website, real estate listing page, community group site, or tourism page, this widget keeps your visitors informed about what’s happening in the area — at no cost to you.

The widget includes a small “Powered by Price County Fun” link at the bottom. That’s the only “cost” — a backlink that helps us continue producing local journalism.
