    I am trying to use feedwordpress. For some reason it does not read my feeds such as below:

    http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.info?_id=GLIE9xow3hGyWRypZcag4A

    Gives me an error: FeedWordPress couldn’t find any feeds

    Anyway does anyone have any suggestions for a better feed aggregator? What I’m looking for is the ability to create sort of a bulletin board. So each feed would provide items listed and linked, but not necessarily as a complete post with full meta data and such. Each feed would be a separate block of posts or items, Like below:


    Feed 1
    item 1
    item 2


    Feed 2
    item 1
    item 2

    Please help, thanks for reading!

    Well first of all you are right, and that was part of my problem. I’ve been using this link to feed RSS to another aggregator and it seemed to work. Anyway using the proper RSS link fixed that particular problem.

    Secondly I think I figured out how to create the bulletin as I wanted. What I did is to have the feed word press plug-in creates a new category for each individual feed. then I created a new page and used the following code to create posts blocks, to display items for each RSS item individually. It works exactly as I wanted it to.

    query_posts('cat=6');
while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><strong><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?> <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></a></strong></p>

<?php endwhile;?>
