# Which Feed Plugin for my needs?

 * I need to fetch RSS feeds and display them on a WP “page.” I’d like to list the
   various feeds in my sidebar, where a user can click one and then see the articles
   in the same area they see the posts and pages.
 * Which feed plugin would work best for this simple application?
 * Once I get the plugin, where exactly will I insert the code to run it? I believe
   these are usually PHP calls, so how can I run a PHP statement in a “page?” As
   far as I know, I am not allowed to place PHP in a page.

 * You’ll need to either get runPHP or whatever it’s called that allows you to run
   PHP in posts/Pages or my preferred method – create a custom Page template.

 * As for the plugin, this may be what you’re looking for: [http://phpxperts.com/hasin/?p=92](http://phpxperts.com/hasin/?p=92)
 * And it doesn’t even need you to use any PHP, that is if you’re using it within
   a post or Page.
 * For sidebar support where you aren’t in The Loop, you may need a plugin [like this](http://wp-plugins.net/plugin/rssLinkList/)
   if the above one can only handle posts/Pages.

 * Thanks for the info.
 * Yesterday I found BDP RSS Aggregator at:

 * Works great! It has a nice interface in wp-admin

 * slobizman –
 * If you are trying to >store< the feeds as posts, you are looking for a reblogger.
   If you just want to >show< the reasonably-current state of some feed, then any
   aggregator script will do.
 * CG-FeedRead is good for sidebar, templated, and (with CG-QuickPHP) in-page or
   in-post feed displays. If you want to see a sample of it on a site, check out:
   
   [http://www.realtechnews.com/blog/rtnews.php](http://www.realtechnews.com/blog/rtnews.php)
 * The main column is individual feeds being output, as is the Yahoo news on the
   right sidebar.

 * I saw CG-FeedRead before and didn’t go for it because it was only available as
   part of the big bundle CG-PowerPack, and I didn’t want to load up all sorts of
   other things. Can it be installed on its own?
 * 
 * I could use a reblogger for something else I might do. What’s a good one for 
   WordPress?
