RSS Feeds...

1 Aug 11, 2005 21:10    

I followed the instructions from the link

http://wonderwinds.com/hackblog.php/2004/08/28/magpierss_in_b2evolution

and was able to get the sample b2evolution blog to RSS back to my own blog... but I am at a loss as to how to add other blogs.

<?php
require_once( dirname(__FILE__).'/rss_fetch.inc' );
?>

<h3>MagpieRSS RAWKS!!!</h3>

<?php
$show_me = 3;
$url = "http://b2evolution.net/xmlsrv/rss2.php?blog=2";
$rss = fetch_rss($url);
require( dirname(__FILE__).'/_magpierss.php' );

For instance... say I wanted to add a blog such as daily thoughts - http://dalythoughts.com/?feed=rss2

what sort of code would go where... would it go in this bit of code or would it go to the _magpierss.php file?

Just adding the url did not work?

anyone... bueller?

and is there anyway to get titles and links rather than the full story?

Sounds like you missed a step.

The four-line-block is where you say how many items from what feed you want displayed. You can repeat this sequence with as many feeds as you like, and you can "show_me" as many items per feed as you choose. You can also set it once and not bother with it again if you always want the same number of items displayed.

$show_me = 3;
$url = "http://b2evolution.net/xmlsrv/rss2.php?blog=2";
$rss = fetch_rss($url);
require( dirname(__FILE__).'/_magpierss.php' );

Repeat that block for each feed you want. As for only getting titles, yes. Tell it $cut_item_desc = true and $cut_item_desc_to = 0;
