With our plugin, you can easily add dynamic, up-to-date content to your site and keep your visitors engaged and informed.

The backend was built with Earnware 3.0 design standards, ensuring a sleek and intuitive user experience. FeedsPress comes with 9 default templates to choose from, and you can also create your own custom templates to match any site’s style and branding.

One of the unique features of FeedsPress is its support for adding featured images inside XML feeds. By default, WordPress does not include featured images in feeds, but with FeedsPress, you can easily modify the feed output to include these eye-catching visuals. This can be a great way to provide a more engaging user experience and promote content.

Another powerful feature of FeedsPress is its ability to add HTML attachments to existing feeds. These attachments will show up on the feed source XML page and on the destination feed, making it easy to include additional content or calls-to-action alongside your feed content.

Whether you’re a blogger, content creator, or business owner, FeedsPress makes it easy to display dynamic and engaging content on your WordPress site.

    Overriding {local_link} or {permalink} template parameters https://support.earnware.com/feedspress/overriding-local_link-or-permalink-template-parameters/ Thu, 14 May 2020 00:24:31 +0000 http://support.earnware.biz/?p=9597
  • If your template has the links wrapped in {permalink}, to change them to a local link use the  change_to_local_link=”true” parameter (see Examples below).
    Note: Please also add the wrap_image_with_link=”true” parameter to link the images as well
  • If your template has the links wrapped in {local_link},  to change them to a permalink use the change_to_permalink=”true” parameter (see Examples below).
    Note: Please also add the wrap_image_with_link=”true” parameter to link the images as well

    • In this case also please set up the same template on both article_detail_template=”” and template=”” parameters, so it wouldn’t cache that page with a detail page. Otherwise it will show both the article_detail_template feed. Also make sure to add ignore_filter=”true” as the feed items get filtered with the current item that you’re trying to view. In order to stop the filter you’ll need to set it to true.
  • See all FeedsPress parameters here.

    Hands touching an urn surrounded by yellow roses.

    Canada euthanized a 26-year-old man for partial blindness and diabetes, exposing a deadly loophole that threatens vulnerable lives and echoes the government overreach conservatives reject.

    Story Highlights

    • Kiano Vafaeian, 26, received MAID in B.C. despite Ontario denials and non-terminal conditions like partial blindness, neuropathy, and depression.
    • Family accuses doctors of exploiting mental health loopholes before 2027 legalization, calling the process “disgusting” and coached.
    • Dr. Ellen Wiebe provided MAID, insisting physical conditions qualified under Track 2, while death certificate omits mental health.
    • Case reveals provincial disparities, prior 2022 halt due to backlash, fueling demands for safeguards against slippery slope euthanasia.

    Tragic Case Unfolds in Vancouver

    Kiano Vafaeian, a 26-year-old from Ontario, received Medical Assistance in Dying on December 30, 2025, in Vancouver, B.C. He suffered type 1 diabetes, vision loss in one eye, severe peripheral neuropathy, and depression. Ontario repeatedly denied his requests before 2022. That year, initial approval reversed amid family outcry and public pressure. Vafaeian then pursued Track 2 in B.C. for non-terminal incurable conditions. His text to family on December 29 confirmed the next day’s procedure. Dr. Ellen Wiebe administered MAID.

    Family Alleges Safeguard Failures

    Margaret Marsilla, Vafaeian’s mother, publicly condemned the system as a failure that coached her son through a mental health loophole. Despite legal delays for mental illness as sole criterion until 2027, family claims depression drove the approval despite physical listings on the death certificate. Joseph Caprara, stepfather, criticized lacking qualifications in assessments. Marsilla labeled the process disgusting, vowing reforms. This mirrors 2022 when backlash halted proceedings. Provincial differences enabled B.C. approval after Ontario rejections.

     

    MAID Expansion Sparks Controversy

    Canada launched MAID in 2016 for terminal cases post-Supreme Court ruling. Bill C-7 in 2021 expanded Track 2 to non-terminal chronic illnesses, removing foreseeable death requirements. Track 2 demands grievous irremediable conditions, consent capacity, and 90-day reviews. B.C. appears more permissive than Ontario. Surge in cases followed, positioning Canada with high global rates. Mental health solely delayed to March 17, 2027. Vafaeian’s young age and non-terminal status amplify debates on vulnerable protections.

    Dr. Wiebe defends her role, stating all cases meet medical criteria without psychiatric basis. She affirms 90-day Track 2 compliance and signed the death certificate listing blindness, neuropathy, diabetes. Family counters with coercion claims. No Health Canada response reported. LADbible highlights family outrage; Global News balances with Wiebe’s view. Core facts align across reports.

    Implications for Life and Liberty

    Short-term, this renews Track 2 scrutiny and mental health concerns pre-2027. Long-term, it pressures interprovincial standardization and federal reviews amid rising MAID deaths. Families grieve while disability and mental health communities fear slippery slopes toward devaluing life. Providers face heightened caution post-backlash. Conservatives see parallels to overreaching governments prioritizing death over care, eroding sanctity of life and family values. No legal challenges yet, but family activism continues via media.

    Call for Stronger Safeguards

    January 2026 coverage details family demands for mental health barriers in MAID. Social polarization grows in euthanasia debates. Political pressure mounts on Ottawa amid high rates. This case underscores risks when autonomy clashes with protections for the vulnerable. Providers like Wiebe emphasize consent; critics warn of abuse. Limited data shows no broader pattern, but interprovincial shifts exploit gaps. True reform demands limiting euthanasia to terminal cases, preserving life as a core principle.
