 * I am using this to bring in a RSS feed, but it seems to not update when a new
   post is added to the RSS feed I am fetching
 * Basically I am fetching my blog posts but would rather get content with the title
   so I cant use the “Recent Posts” widget, using my sites rss feed
    “{siteurl}/
   feed/”
 * When it fetches it wont fetch fresh content

 * Kender – you need to take that up in the rss widget forum. Note that usually 
   RSS feed fetches are NOT realtime, so they do NOT update instantaneously. To 
   be clear the website outputting a feed will update but the other systems using
   the feed check periodically for updates, they are NOT checking every second or
   minute.
 * Most likely it has updated by now.
 * My plugin simply catches the output of the widget and feeds it back through the
   shortcode filter so that the output appears in the page content. It has no way
   of influencing the content returned by any widget and does not try to do so.
