How do I use PHP to put an RSS feed into my website sidebar?

[chapchap70]

I would like to put my wordpress blog feed into my website sidebar. The problem is, I do not understand the instructions from Wordpress.

Here is the link to the wordpress instructions. https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Feeds


Here is the Templated framework design I am using; the portion I want my blog into.

Code: Select all

<header>
								<h2>Mauris vulputate</h2>
							</header>
							<ul class="style">
								<li>
									<p class="posted">May 21, 2014  |  (10 )  Comments</p>
									<p><a href="#">Nullam non wisi a sem eleifend. Donec mattis libero eget urna. Pellentesque viverra enim.</a></p>
								</li>
								<li>

								</li>

I know how to put my blog feed into a link but what I am trying to do is have the posted content appear on my website automatically when I post to my blog. Is this two or three simple one line scripts or is it more complicated?

You need to extract the content of the feed (they are in XML), parse it, and then output it as HTML fragment. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1094 ... javascript.

Thanks guys.

The site still is a work in progress and is currently in html using the Hiawatha server. I might change to php instead.

Maybe you can try to use XSLT:

inside html iframe tag (without PHP, but you will have to copy your rss.xml to your web server every time you write new blog entry):

Or you can try to put:

inside iframe tag on your web page.
