Asgard - Social Media Alerts & Feeds WordPress Builder 1.2.6

Asgard is a high-performance Social Media Alerts & Feeds Builder for WordPress, designed by Odin Design. Unlike standard feed plugins that just show a static grid of photos, Asgard functions as a "Mega Toolkit" for creating interactive notifications, live counters, and floating alert boxes that connect your website directly to your social ecosystems.

It is a perfect companion for the "creative-corporate" kits like Eklan or Vistant because it adds a layer of "Live Social Proof" that static templates often lack.

## 1. Key Features & Functionality

7-in-1 Social Integration: Supports Facebook, X (Twitter), Instagram, Twitch, YouTube, Patreon, and Discord.

40+ Pre-made Templates: Includes specific designs for each network, such as Twitch "Stream Online" alerts, YouTube "Live Subscriber" counters, and Instagram photo grids.

Interactive Alerts Builder: Features a backend visual builder where you can customize colors, fonts (Google Fonts), icons (Font Awesome & SVG), and animations without touching code.

Static vs. Dynamic Content: * Static: Great for custom messages, "Join our Discord" banners, or upcoming event announcements.

Dynamic: Uses APIs (like Instagram Basic Display API) to automatically pull live data like your latest 25 photos or real-time follower counts.

Floating & Grid Layouts: You can set your alerts as floating elements (always accessible to the user) or embed them as 1x, 3x, or 5x grids within your content.

## 2. Strategic Use with Your Kits

Asgard can be strategically placed within your existing Elementor layouts to boost engagement:

Kit

Strategic Implementation

RiderBroz (Bikers)

A Twitch Live alert to notify members when a club ride or garage build is being streamed.

Eklan (Marketing)

A Live Follower Counter for Instagram or X to prove the agency’s social authority.

Vistant (Virtual Asst)

A Patreon or Discord floating alert to invite high-tier clients into a private community.

Chisel (Education)

A YouTube Feed grid showcasing the latest campus tour or lecture videos.

## 3. How to Setup Asgard in WordPress

Select a Template: Open the Asgard builder and choose a social network (e.g., Instagram).

Connect Your Account: For dynamic feeds, you will need to input an Access Token. (Asgard includes step-by-step documentation on how to get these from the Meta/Google developer portals).

Customize the Style: Match the colors to your Global Style Kit. If your kit uses a specific accent color (like the Vistant blue), apply that to the alert background.

Activate: You can activate alerts sitewide with one click from the "Manage Alerts" tab, or use a Shortcode to place a specific feed inside an Elementor column.

## 4. Technical Benefits

Optimized Architecture: Built with clean, maintainable code to ensure that adding multiple social "pings" doesn't tank your site's performance.

Mobile Ready: The alerts are designed to be "thumb-friendly" on mobile devices, ensuring the "Follow" or "Subscribe" buttons are easy to click.

SVG Support: Uses vector icons for sharp displays on Retina screens, which is vital for high-end portfolio sites like Dexxter.

## 5. Comparison: Asgard vs. Standard Feed Plugins

Most free plugins (like Smash Balloon) focus solely on displaying a gallery of posts. Asgard is more of a conversion tool—it is designed to get the user to do something (Follow, Join, Subscribe) by using eye-catching "Alert" style UI elements that mimic social media notifications.

Would you like me to help you find the specific "Access Token" instructions for a particular platform (like Instagram or YouTube) so you can get your Asgard feed live?
