Using an RSS Feed (This is Easy)

Blogger.com syndicates content to an ATOM feed - not RSS...

Maybe that's why it aint working?

 

thanks for the tutorial

 

I just want to send out a Thanks to yfs1 and everyone else who posted useful information on RSS feeds, Thanks to you all I finally got a RSS feed going to my website.

 

I want to change my self edited "New Articles box" on my home page http://www.quoteforinsurance.com to an RSS feed to index new articles in my site. I have written everything in html thus far and I'm not keen on changing everything over to a data retrieval system.

Is it possible to do this? Or, should I setup a new page to list the feeds? Can I post standard html files in an RSS feed system? The more I read the more confused I am getting about this. Is what I want to do feasible?

hmilesjr, sent ya a PM.

 

Yeah, but trying to get a really good RSS feed for the advertising industry is a nightmare.

 

RssEqualizer works well. and it takes the feed out of java so it can be spidered.

 

Saintdw, you mentioned there was a way to remove the links. Would you be kind enought to elaborate? Thanks

 

PM me if you're interested in putting together a new feed... We can scan about 1,000 news sources and would be happy to help

 

Yes, that is an option, but it is also an expensive one.

I have been searching for weeks now on this subject and hit a gold mine in the knowledgable people posting to this forum. Thanks to all of you!

My knowledge of php is nil; so I have not gotten more than js feed onto my pages yet. I found the free http://www.rss2html.com/ and haven't gotten it to work yet and now I have found this option and all the good advice here. I would love to be able to get this working without having to spend $97.

 

cool man! great info.

 

Where do you insert the XML code?

Hi,

Can someone tell me what exact code should i have to use for biz directory and where exactly i should place the code in template_index.php file

I tried it but the results R being shown at the pages TOP and not at the bottom/fotter.



Hope someone helps..

 

NO ONE??

Strange...

Hope someone atleast this time will reply to help

 

I think it works better if you put it in index.php, not template_index.php

 

Will the results get displayed on all pages?

I tried in template_index.php but its displaying the matter on header/top part of the page.

 

Yes, add your code below

}else{
		$replace = array("[CATEGORY_NAME]" => $current_category["name"]);
		echo strtr($TEMPLATE["PAGES"]["NO_PAGES"],$replace);
	};
};
echo $TEMPLATE["FOOTER"];
?>

Code (markup):

on index.php and they will be site wide

 

@yfs1

Thanks alot for that information

 

Thanks for the code - got it up on the site and working fine. I am using an rss feed from the BBC and each time you click on a link it takes you to their site. IS there anyway i can change the code so that it opens the content in a new window (this way my visitors will not leave the site every time they click ona news link)

Thanks
