There are two options I know of:
1.) a free plugin called FeedWordpress – this will read Atom and RSS feeds and create new posts from feed entries. Available from the WP Plugins section
2.) a RSS to HTML converter like Antone Roundy’s CaRP. He offers a free “light” version on his website http://www.geckotribe.com. CaRP can display any RSS feed on any site using a very versatile PHP script. The paid-for version can even display YouTube videos and Amazon Affiflate Links. CaRP also comes with an optional WP Plugin to use it easily in your posts or on your pages.
The main advantage of CaRP over FeedWordpress is that you can use CaRP on static pages, and also as Widget in the sidebar. FeedWordpress can only be used to create new posts. It still works well as an aggregator. But if you’re looking for something like “currently on my other blogs”, then CaRP might be your best bet.
Thanks heaps Versluis… however what I’m after is not a plugin into WP, I just want to get content FROM my wordpress site into another site (NOT WP).
ie. what do I put on my external (non-WP) site?
It’s probably really easy, but I just can’t figure out what php or rss code you need to put into the OTHER site to receive feeds from a WordPress site… and can this info be customized (ie no. of posts received etc).
Any help would be luvly!
He told you CaRP which will probably work fine. You need an agregator on the other site and CaRP is one.
thanks heaps… I’m on my way!!
