[Plugin: HungryFEED] Blank Page with Multiple Hungry Feeds

    Dear Sir or Ma’am:

    This is a great plugin, thank you for providing this to us!

    I am currently running into an issue when I place multiple feeds on one page. Long story short, I’m trying to create a “news” page that, in essence” posts the latest 5 or 10 posts from some of my favorite site’s RSS feeds.

    I notice that if I setup around 20 or less feeds, I can get this to work most of the time (sometimes it returns a blank page). If I go above 20, it might work / display one time, but when I go back to it later, it appears blank.

    Additionally, I have created a cache folder (with the correct permissions) and added the code you suggested to the wp-config.php file to allow caching to occur.

    I don’t know if this is a caching issue or something else. Feel free to browse the page yourself to take a look (this site is still in development): https://duffgolf.com/golf-news/

    I can’t seem to find any errors in the source code / console. Could this be an issue with my theme or conflicts with other plugins (like buddypress)?

    Thank you in advance!

    Josh

    Hmm, I haven’t seen anybody try 20 feeds but since HungryFEED is pulling in that content on the server-side, I would imagine it’s probably causing the PHP script to timeout.

    I think for that purpose it would be better to do one of two things.

    1 – you could use a feed aggregator service (like yahoo pipes) and combine at least some of the feeds there. Then use HungryFEED to pull in a smaller number of aggregated feeds.

    2 – try another RSS plugin that retrieves the data on the client side (ie via AJAX in your browser) Client-side ajax reader plugins seem to be more popular than a server-side reader like HungryFEED, so it should be possible to find one.

    Pulling in the feed on the server-side is good for things like SEO optimization and giving a more fully integrated feel to the feed content on your page. But on the negative side, it isn’t very efficient for pulling in a lot of feeds on one page.
