Not sure why there are errors…maybe wordpress team changed something. There is a new function called get_rss however. Maybe that will work.

How can I add things like author and date? I’ve tried things like:

echo $item['dc:publisher'];

echo $item['pubdate'];

Unsuccessfully.

Is it just me, or does anyone else see, “Warning: array_slice() [function.array-slice]: The first argument should be an array in /home/sites/blue-anvil.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/phpexec.php(41) : eval()’d code on line 4″, in the example boxes? The only reason I ask, is because I am getting this error too, when I try to parse a feed from my own website. It works the first time, but then on refresh it dies and give me a similar error.

Your lesson is similar to one I found on the wordpress codex but yours is more detailed. I have one question: Do you know if there is a way to display/echo the pubdate for each item? I have not been able to figure that out.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot for this post; I’m now using the native RSS fetcher in Wordpress to create a blogroll on my site using del.icio.us links, and a current and recent reading list from my Google Library RSS feed

I’m spending half my waking day thinking of new and fiendish ways of parsing RSS feeds to my site now!

(”Half my waking day” and “fiendish” are probably overstating it a bit.)

Pretty cool Mike! or should I say “Jolley Good”… I had played with Magpie separately long back, but didnt know it was built-in in WP. Now after reading your article, my mind is racing… A big THANK YOU to you for coming up with this…
