RSS setup for a WordPress Blog
-
Hello , been asked to do something about a question like this?
“Would you mind enabling rss feeds, because this page is difficult to read on my phone. Don’t mean to be a complainer, but I figure if it would help me it would probably help others as well. Thanks “
now the page already has one for twitter and facebook , how do you set one up for the actual blog itself (it sounds crazy to me) or how do you make the blog work like RSS?
I tried setting it up as a widget – and nothing showed up
I tried setting up like this
<?php if(function_exists(‘fetch_feed’)) {
include_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/feed.php’); // the file to rss feed generator
$feed = fetch_feed(‘http://www.katearnoldnutrition.co.uk/Common_Sense_Nutrition/feed/’); // specify the rss feed
$limit = $feed->get_item_quantity(7); // specify number of items
$items = $feed->get_items(0, $limit); // create an array of items
}
if ($limit == 0) echo ‘<div>The feed is either empty or unavailable.</div>’;
else foreach ($items as $item) : ?>
// The actual output
<h1>get_permalink(); ?>” alt=”<?php echo $item->get_title(); ?>”><?php echo $item->get_title(); ?></h1>
<p><?php echo $item->get_date(‘j F Y @ g:i a’); ?></p>
<p><?php echo substr($item->get_description(), 0, 200); ?> …</p>
<?php endforeach; ?>and it throws a hissy fit , what is the best way to go about this?
thanks,
Ash
