Yes, one method is to use the PHP function "include".

Huh? LOL I'll have to get Aaron to help me.

Are you using RSS feeds? I am looking to create more real estate content for visitors (and search engines). Will I accomplish that with RSS?

Are you using RSS feeds?

Yes, see here

http://www.wilkes-nc-real-estate.com/

right-hand column, below the fold, the RSS feed comes from

http://www.ncrealestateblog.com/

to which we make daily posts.



We also have another RSS integration here

http://www.pcdoctorsgroup.com/links.php

which displays the feed "Latest google 'spyware' news. "

I know it works (driving people to the sites we maintain) by observing the server logs.

Some of the strangest search queries appear in the logs because the spiders "cache" the pages with the RSS feeds displayed as normal HTML code.

Self promotion removed

Your saying you can use a php include to "include" the RSS feed ?

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought RSS feeds usually come in the form of an XML file that needs to be parsed then displayed as html.

I don't see anything about how to integrate RSS feeds on you services page? Maybe I am missing something.

Marc, if you could let us know what RSS feed you want integrated we will take care of it for you.

pcdoc we do appreciate you participating in discussion on RSS - but it is innappropriate to post self promotion links in the REW template support forum, this is where REW users come to get tech support and help with their REW CMS's and templates.
