   I want to put news from other sites on my site? How do I do this? I assume I should use RSS. I want a bit of automatic content, relevent to my site.

   Okay....all this is fairly scary to me. I haven't got a clue. Should I just stay away from this (I sure do want some news content) or is there a simpler plugin.

   If your theme is widget enabled, and you've got widgets installed, you may already have an RSS widget that'll pull in headlines from other sources.

   I think I have an old theme. I can't seem to find another one I like so I am stuck for now (taking suggestions).

   Anyway, I am reading the book titled WordPress Complete and I followed the instructions for a feed on my frontpage.

   It works, but shows html tags on the front page.

   can you go to http://www.maconcardeals.com and see it?

   How do you enable a theme for widgets by the way?

   And how do I get the visitor to open a seperate browser when clicking on the news link, so they do not totally go away from my site?
