    I am using Foodie Pro Theme which is a Genesis theme. I am hosting through WPEngine and I post through IPAD which is a mobile device.this limits my choice of import files to my photos.

    I want to use RSS Aggregator to show other blog posts after my own Related Posts content at the end of a post. I also wish to add it in the same format on my Newsletter through Mail Chimp.
    Is this possible?

    What plugins/extenions do I need, and how do I get the other bloggers posts to show? I used the demo, but only got the posts to show as a published post like my own post and not after my post. I would like a thumbnail image, post name and author and choose row/column form.

    Thanks for any guidance.

    Hi Marilyn,

    I’m not sure about the Mail Chimp part as I haven’t used that service in a while.

    For showing the feed items below the Related Posts, you have to insert the code to out put the feed items within your theme, right after the code that outputs the related posts:

    <?php wprss_display_feed_items(); ?>

    For displaying in the format you mention, you would need the Excerpts and Thumbnails add-on. This will give you an output similar to what I have on Fit For Blogging:

    You can tweak the display via CSS, although there are of course limits to what can be done through CSS.

    If you want ultimate flexibility with importing and displaying RSS feeds, I would suggest you go for the Advanced Feeds Bundle together with the Views plugin (3rd party) which we have found to be excellent for beginner to intermediate level users.

    Hope that helps.
