DISPLAYING THE FEED ITEMS

Each block or shortcode can use any template and it can also have its own parameters, such as selecting which sources to display items from, the maximum number of items to display, whether to use pagination, which page to show, and more.

Shortcode example with parameters: [wp-rss-aggregator source="123" limit="5"]

Es aconsejable utilizar la vista 'HTML' del editor al insertar shortcodes con parámetros.

O

                <?php do_shortcode('[wp-rss-aggregator]'); ?>

FAQ

What feed sources can I import items from?

Any source with a valid RSS or XML feed can have its feed items imported by WP RSS Aggregator. Most sites provide RSS feeds right out the box as shown here. If you can't find an RSS feed, you may try to create one using our free service.

¿Cómo puedo visualizar los elementos de feed importados?

Use the template of your choice to display imported items anywhere across your site. To show the items, you can use either one (or a combination) of the options below.

  • Option 1: Use our shortcode in your posts and pages: [wp-rss-aggregator]
  • Option 2: Use our block in the Gutenberg editor (WP 5.0 and later)
  • Option 3: Call the function directly within a theme: <?php wprss_display_feed_items(); ?>

¿Hay algún límite en el número de fuentes de feed que puedo usar?

No, there is no limit for the number of feed sources to import items from. Having many (50+) feed sources should not present any problems in itself. However, pulling in posts from many sites is bound to put your server under some stress, so you might want to consider using a hosting solution that goes beyond your typical shared host and staggering the feed imports.

Check out our dedicated page on WordPress hosting recommendations (includes some affiliate links).

Can I import the full text from any source site?

In the majority of cases, this possible using our Feed to Post and Full Text RSS feeds add-ons, both of which are part of our most popular bundle, the Pro Plan.

¿Trabaja WP RSS Aggregator usando JSON como fuente?

No, nuestro plugin no importa desde JSON, solo importa desde XML estructurado como RSS y Atom.

¿Por qué obtengo «No se han encontrado elementos de feed» al insertar el shortcode en una página o entrada?

  1. Prueba a agregar algunas fuentes de feed más y asegúrate de que son válidas utilizando el RSS Feed Validator.

  2. Make sure that feed items have been imported by visiting the Feed Items page.

  3. Try out the solutions listed in our Feed Items Not Importing knowledge base section.

  4. Es importante confirmar que el sistema cron de tu WordPress funciona correctamente. Si no el feed no podrá ser importado.
    Si tienes dudas, puedes instalar el plugin WP Crontrol para comprobar un mal cron,
    o ir a la depuración de RSS Aggregator y pulsar el botón rojo par reimportar todos los elementos del feed.

Si el problema persiste, por favor contacta con nuestro equipo de soporte.
Si estás utilizando una extensión premium, por favor usa el canal de soporte premium.

¿Puedo almacenar los elementos de feed importados como entradas?

Yes, you can do that using the Feed to Post premium add-on. You will not only be able to store items as posts, but as any post type. You can also set the author, set tags and categories, import images into the gallery or set featured images, and much more. These can then be displayed in your theme's blog page, via a page builder, etc. Add Full Text RSS Feeds into the mix for the most powerful combination of add-ons.

Some RSS feeds only give a short excerpt when using the add-ons. Any way around that?

Sí, junto con la extensión Feed to Post, tenemos otra extensión
llamada Full Text RSS Feeds que permite obtener el contenido completo
de la mayoría de los feeds que sólo proporcionan un extracto. La extensión Full Text RSS Feeds requiere Feed to Post y una clave de licencia válida.

Reseñas

IlanaW 11 de agosto de 2022

A plugin is only ever as good as the support. We had an issue with extra content showing up in our feed, and they were able to help us figure it out quickly.

This is an excellent plugin, reliable, easy to install and use, with prompt support, and fit for purpose. Whatever the subject of your website, if you are looking for a quick, easy way to add content (from related websites) to bring your readers back, this is it. I'm a writer and a self-publisher, so RSS is better than sex. It makes it possible to add (syndicate) content, respecting copyrights, from other websites. If you are multi-lingual, they claim it is integrated with WPML, though I've not tested this yet. A French-language publisher has offered me regular, free articles (posts), if I translate them into English and attribute them to him. He uses Wordpress. So I intend to obtain certain of his posts by RSS, then translate them, using WPML, and then publish them in English, monthly. The Pro version is required for this, but the basic version is good enough for now. By the way, syndicated content is not new. It goes back to "newsreaders" and usenet years ago. Also, be aware that some websites have disabled RSS feeds of their new posts. Also, not all RSS feeds are valid, but this plugin includes a function to validate the feed before publishing it. I thank the developer and wish him a long, healthy, prosperous life. My website is just a hobby for now, but this plugin gives my readers a reason to come back.

Perfect!

Easy to install and configure and it does as promised. I'm a happy user 🙂

I've used this plugin on several sites over the years, and love it. While it can sometimes be tricky to bring over the desired content, there's typically a way to get it to work -- fix the RSS feed, tweak a setting, get help from customer support, etc. I'm a fan of this plugin, hence the 5-star rating.
