Static pages to show RSS feeds

[jrj127]

I want to create a static page which contains all my favorite RSS feeds. I like the sidebar RSS plugin but if I have too many it will make the sidebar too long.

Is it easy/straightforward to make the static page automatically grab the feeds? I do not mean to just have the RSS feed link, I would like to have the real entries for each feed show up in the static page content.

This should be done with a new plugin or different system, and not the static pages.

The idea of static pages is that the content is static, and not dynamic. You can create a plugin which lists RSS feeds.

Another solution would be to setup a "Planet" / "Aggregator" installation of Serendipity. There you can add all your RSS feeds to display. Look at http://planet.koehntopp.de/, he is using the serendipity_event_aggregator script for all of that.

If you know some PHP and understand what the RSS sidebar plugin is doing, you can create an event plugin which outputs RSS feeds on an isolated page (take the serendipity_event_contactform plugin as a foundation plugin) pretty easy and straightforward...

Wanna see my static page solution ?

The solution is quite simple. The static pages includes an <object> that calls the *.php containing the php script that collects the rss informations...

That's a nifty solution. I always forget about those iframes.
