Hi Allen
Thank you for your reply. I am using feed to post on my front page, and a short code on several other pages like http://ascotpark.org.nz/wp/information/civil-defence-updates/
Thank you

What is the URL of the RSS feed that you think has more information than is showing on your site?

that rss feed has only at most 1 sentence for each item..you can see this clearly be putting the url of the feed into a firefox browser..view the source and you’ll see one short sentence in the <description> tag.

the description is not what i am getting.
I am am getting on my feeds is title date and link.
Am I missing a simple setting that i cannot find that displays the description?

Do you have the excerpt set to yes?

ok…the problem is that the this feed puts all the information in their description tag, and virtually nothing in the content tag…my plugin looks for the content tag (since that’s where almost all well formed feeds put their content)…if you want you can change this in the main file or contact me at http://www.allenweiss.com/contact and I can send you a file that will look for the description tag (but of course, this means that for most other RSS feeds, you won’t get much information)

Hi Allen
Thank you for that,
I have just checked all my feeds and they all use the Description toags. SO I will have a go at correcting it tomorrow, otherwise I will contact you.
Thank you
