RSS feed source updating

Hey,

Here you have a code snippet which will help you change the cache time:

Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks.

Where would I add this code?

You can add this in your functions.php of your theme or child theme.

Thank you very much.

I am a novice at coding.

It’s obvious this code needs to be modified to suit my specific needs.

Let’s say I wanted https://motherboard.vice.com/rss feed to update every 5 minutes. How would this code look?

Would I need the code for each feed on my post? I have 12 feed sources.

Here’s the way my post looks now: https://atnnow.com/lnf/live-rss-feeds/

What I am having problems with is that the feeds don’t update until I log in to my WordPress site and refresh the post. After I log out, and go back to the post, the old feeds are still showing. I have no idea why that is, but it’s very strange.

Thanks.

What exactly does this code do? I don’t understand coding.

Since I have 12 feed sources on one WordPress post, would I need to add 12 code snippets to the functions.php file?

Is the only thing I need to change in the code the particular RSS feed URL?

The problem I am having is that I see old feeds on my site. To see the new feeds, I need to log in to my WordPress, go to the page, and hit refresh. This is very annoying. Will adding this snippet to the functions.php file resolve this?
