Display Wordpress Feeds

Post by conglomco »

Hello..
I want to display a feed from my friend's site that he made with Word Press. The link he gave me for the feed looks like this:

Code: Select all

feed:http://theredproject.com/calls/?feed=rss2
It does not seem to work with the RSS Aggregator Plugin..
other feeds work great, but not this one..
Any Ideas>?
thank you for your time

Hi!

The "RSS Aggregator" plugin is there to IMPORT entries from foreign feeds. What you seem to want to do is to use the sidebar plugin "Display remote feeds / OPML", where you can enter the URL directly. No "feed:" prefix, just http://....

HTH,

ok,
Is there a way that I can get those feeds to display only in a specific catagory page on my site?
thanks,

You could use the Sidebar Hider plugin to remove it from any categories except the one you want.

Thanks much for the help!
Ok, so I can be sure... I'm having Trouble finding the "Sidebar Hider" Plugin.. but, I can use that to make the feed display only in the

Code: Select all

[url]http://conglomco.org/serendipity/index.php?/categories/3-CALLS-and-OPPS [/url]
section of my site?
I don't want this feed to display in the side bar, but rather in that catagory setion.
sorry, I'm not understanding!
thanks,

Hi!

Yes, you should be able to do that. The Sidebar Hider plugin (full name is "Toggle Sidebar state (collapsed/uncollapsed)") is available via Spartacus Plugin or via manual download:
