Thanks!

yes, the rss, sorry. but is there no way I print only “17 may” and not the whole string???

ah, I got it to work with:

<?php include('magpie/rss_fetch.inc');

error_reporting(E_ERROR);

$rss = fetch_rss('word/?feed=rss2');
if ($rss) {
 $items = array_slice($rss->items, 0, 5);
 foreach ($items as $item )
 {   echo '<li><a href="'.$item['link'].'"><span class="date">'.$item['title'].'</a> - '.$item['author'].'</li>';  }
}
else
{
  echo '<h2>Error:</h2><p>'.magpie_error().'</p>';
}
// Restore original error reporting value
@ini_restore('error_reporting');
?>

Thanks! Anyone have trouble using magpie try https://www.olate.co.uk/articles/view.php?id=214

hmm, seems a bit unnecessary, or am I wrong about how to use magpie? I place magpie in a folder on my server, then apply a script like this:

<?php
define('MAGPIE_DIR', '/magpie/');
require_once(MAGPIE_DIR.'rss_fetch.inc');

$rss = fetch_rss( 'https://www.yoursite.com/yourfolder/atom.xml' );

//display latest blog content:
$item = $rss->items[0];
$content = $item['atom_content'];
echo "<p>Latest Blog Entry:$content</p>\n";
?>

But I dont have the atom.xml file? I guess i must edit WP to generate the atom.xml?

im sorry if im a bit unclear.. it is on the same server, but not in the wordpress it self… I want to show recent posts on my index page and I have the wordpress in folder /word/ on the same server…
