   Hello

   I need a wordpress plugin that displays rss feeds of your own choice on a page.

   Any recommendation?

   (I tried a plugin called "NewsPage", but I didn't like it.)

   Thanks

   It might be helpful if you either elaborated a bit on why they don't fit the need or shared some more details on what the need really is.

   I dont know how to explain it, but I hope it's understandble anyway.

   I need a plugin which you can use to add the rss news to a page or post with a simple "tag code" that you insert in your page or post.

   My idea was to have rss news of a site under the screenshot thumbnail or on a completely new page I am not sure yet...

   Here a example: of a post there I maybe want to have it, like in a new square under "RSS":

   http://xn--bokmrken-3za.net/archives/211

   The RSS square is just linking to the rss pages of the site that the post is about but I also want to show live rss news maybe in the post, in a new square directly under "RSS" or in a new page as said.

   Note: I am not looking after a plugin that will only work as a widget in the sidebar.

   Felix,

   What you probably need to use is a plugin that allows you to execute PHP in posts, pages, and widgets.

   I have an RSS feed running on a page using this method.

   Download and use either the PHP-Execution or the Exec-PHP plugin. After you have that installed and activated, use the following code in your Page or Post where you want the feed to go:
   

   <?php
   include_once(ABSPATH.WPINC.'/rss.php'); // path to include script
   $feed = fetch_rss('http://domain.tld/your-feed/'); // specify feed url
   $items = array_slice($feed->items, 0, 7); // specify first and last item
   ?>
   
   <?php if (!empty($items)) : ?>
   <?php foreach ($items as $item) : ?>
   
   <h2><a href="<?php echo $item['link']; ?>"><?php echo $item['title']; ?></a></h2>
   <p><?php echo $item['description']; ?></p>
   
   <?php endforeach; ?>
   <?php endif; ?>

   You can get more info on that code here: http://perishablepress.com/press/2009/04/26/import-and-display-rss-feeds-in-wordpress/
