Hello, I’ll be your Imbecile this Evening

You need this:
https://www.redalt.com/External/plugins.php?p=rss-linked-list
Read everything when installing.

<?php rssLinkList("https://del.icio.us/rss/finalcut", 10); ?>

That would produce the last 10 posts, in default format, wherever you put the code.
IF you want this to auto post, you will have to remove the loop and instead put those LinkList calls in place – but why would you want to do that ?

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: lastrss in /usr/home/BLAH/domains/mydomain.com/public_html/
MYFOLDER/wp-content/plugins/rssLinkList.php on line 206

Have you gone over the readme carefully ?
I’ve installed this plugin several times without error.

yes, i think so. i did only 3 things:

1. uploaded lastRSS.php to /wp-content/ folder

2. uploaded rssLinkList.php to /wp-content/plugins/ folder

3. Edited rssLinkList as follows:

/* DEFINE THE SETTINGS — EDIT AS YOU NEED */
$lastRSSPath = ‘https://myWPdomain.com/wp-content/lastRSS.php’;
$cacheDirectory = ‘https://myWPdomain.com/wp-content/rsscache/’;
$cacheTimeout = 21600; // 21600 sec is 6 hours.
$connectionTimeout=20;
$CDATA = ‘content’;
$showRSSLinkListJS = true;

4. activated plug-in

5. placed the following code (exactly as is) in a post and then in the sidebar template.

<?php
rssLinkList(“working feed URL”);
?>

the post showed the code, unparsed. the sidebar placement showed the error above.

did i forget something?

5 – you can’t do that.
If you want to run code in a post, you’ll need to take a different approach.
Or do you want this code to generate posts ?

You can’t place raw PHP into posts without a plugin like RunPHP.

okay — what approach is that?

“You can’t place raw PHP into posts without a plugin like RunPHP.”

I hear ya, yet this solution makes no mention of it. Please read my first post to see what methods i have ALREADY tried.

TO REITERATE THE GOAL:

RSS FEEDS DISPLAYED IN POST.

Shouting is considered rude. Do not do that.

Feeds displayed in post.
Means what ?

Do you want the feeds AS your posts and to appear without you doing anything at all ? In other words, you give it the links and it churns out the posts ?

sorry for the “shout” , – i still think of caps as a way to achieve visual distinctiveness and bring to the eye what is most important on the page — therefore a “service” [wink] not a rudeness…

I want to post manually, as always, but to include the contents of a feed — i don’t need to have there be any automation in this process, except for the correct parsing of the feed within the posts i choose to include feeds into.

still, hopeful — ??

hello, again — thought i’d hope some more — ??

odd though, this seems a popular, often-requested feature, that’s (supposed) to have several different working solutions available — can anyone at least confirm that it IS possible to hit “publish” and see the feed displayed in my post?

Actually, I’m not aware of too many people looking to include a feed inside a post. Most people display feed contents in a sidebar somewhere.

I’ve not used PHPExec, so I don’t know how it works. I do know that with RunPHP, you need to check eval() code when publishing the post, or else RunPHP will simply display your PHP as regular post contents without actually executing it.

FeedWordpress ?
