- Create a new directory named
feedwordpressin thewp-content/pluginsdirectory of your WordPress installation. Use an FTP or SFTP client to upload the contents of your FeedWordPress archive to the new directory that you just created on your web host. - Upgrade the copy of MagpieRSS packaged with WordPress by installing the new copies of
rss.phpandrss-functions.phpinto thewp-includesdirectory of your FeedWordPress installation. These files are stored in theMagpieRSS-upgradedirectory of your FeedWordPress archive.(Strictly speaking, FeedWordPress will run without the upgrade. But if you hope to take advantage of modern feed formats like Atom 1.0, to correctly syndicate post categories or alternative character encodings, or to avoid numerous bugs that have since been fixed, you need to install the upgrade.)
- Log in to the WordPress Dashboard and activate the FeedWordPress plugin under the Plugins settings page.
- Once the plugin is activated, you can go to Syndication –> Feeds and set (1) the link category that FeedWordPress will syndicate links from (by default, “Contributors”), and (2) whether FeedWordPress will use cron-less automatic updates based on page loads, a cron job, or only manual updates. This example is taken from Kubrick, the default theme for WordPress 2.x. Different themes may have different post loops, but you can almost always identify them by finding
while (have_posts()) : the_post(). In most themes, you will need to find the post loop in the Main Index Template (index.php), the Archives template (archive.php), and possibly the Single Post (single.php) and Search Results (search.php) templates. Some Themes, in order to avoid duplication, use a different template file, often calledpost-content.phpor something similar, or a function in the Theme Functions (functions.php) template, to handle all displaying of post contents.) Anyway. Once you have found your post loop, you need to replace the template fun
