Could any one show me how to use simplepie

Could anyone show me how to make website like popurl by using simplepie. I want it to be nofollow on each link and open in a new window.
Thanks in advance.

 

do you use cms or you build your own PHP page?

 

Which is better? if I want to build PHP is there a good tutorial to do it?
thank you

 

if you use Owprdpress there's a ready-to-use function.
if you use your own PHP you can use the API to pull content.
read here for more info about API

Which wordpress plugin that ready to use?
thanks

 

you din't need plugin to deal with simplepie in wordpress 2.8 and above.
just need to add the function to the page you desired to add the feed.

 

could you show me how to do it?
thanks

 

here's simple usage for single feed.
for muntiple feed, you need to declare array on function fetch_feed:

	<?php // Get RSS Feed(s)
	include_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/feed.php');

	// Get a SimplePie feed object from the specified feed source.
	$rss = fetch_feed('http://www.somesite.com/feed/');

	// Figure out how many total items there are, but limit it to 5. 
	$maxitems = $rss->get_item_quantity(5); 

	// Build an array of all the items, starting with element 0 (first element).
	$rss_items = $rss->get_items(0, $maxitems); 
	?>

    <?php if ($maxitems == 0) echo '<li>No items.</li>';
    else
    // Loop through each feed item and display each item as a hyperlink.
		foreach ( $rss_items as $item ) : ?>
			<h3><a href='<?php echo $item->get_permalink(); ?>' 
//the rss post title as link
			title='<?php echo $item->get_title(); ?>'>
//use content as title for link
			<?php echo $item->get_title(); ?></a></h3>
			<p><?php echo $item->get_date('j F Y | g:i a'); ?></p>
//date and time of post here

		<?php endforeach; ?>

PHP:

Thanks so much. I am still learning about php. Could you show me how to put multiple feeds as well?

 

change this line:

$rss = fetch_feed('http://www.somesite.com/feed/');

PHP:

to an array

$rss = fetch_feed(array(
	'http://somesite.com/feed/',
	'http://anothersite.com/feed/',
        'and so on'));

PHP:
