   Is this code correct?
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_rss

   I can't get it to work on my site. And it says that the $num var is required, but I don't see it in the example code?

   What I want to do: take the feed from my other site and place the last 5 post titles in this blog's sidebar - any suggestions?

   I havent tried using this, but the first thing I saw was:

   Note
   A bug in 2.06 prevents this function from working correctly. This bug will likely be fixed in 2.07 or 2.08.

   maybe 2.6 or 2.7... or 3.9?

   I tried several variations on that, and what's weird is only one time did it produce anything, and that was a parsing error. The rest of the time, absolutely nothing displayed on the page.

   I think the code is just plain wrong. Sorry - it's just what I need, too.

   Works perfectly for me.
   Like this:

   <?php require_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/rss-functions.php');
   echo '<ol>';
   get_rss('http://www.ayudh.eu/feed/', $num = 8);
   echo '</ol>';
   ?>
