Just curious if anyone here 1. uses the wp-carp plugin and 2. can you somehow just embed it into the wordpress templates rather then into posts? I have a template that has a tabbed panel on it where I want to call different rss feeds in each tab but I can't figure out how I could do it or if its possible to do it with template tags???

I don't use CARP but I use a WP feed puller to grab an RSS feedand output it to a WP page. I don't know if it helps but here is an example: http://www.almostgeek.com/writings-elsewhere

Let me know if you want the name of the plug in.

Can yours pull more than just the title Dan?

PS I like the post "How to reassign your unzipping program" LOL

Hey Kim,

It appears that it does here is the plugin page: http://kruyt.org/projects/wp-plugins/inlinefeed The example page shows title and content http://kruyt.org/inlinefeeds/news

It's easy to install and pretty easy to setup.

Do you have a link to their plugin page kdemonte. You can generally use some php tags to imbed those sorts of things directly onto wordpress templates, but I dont have their product or seen it so if you can direct me to their site, i can help ya out.

Here (http://www.geckotribe.com/rss/carp/CaRP-WP/)is the wp-carp plugin. I was told by another person that I can probably use this too with the tabbed menu by just changing the template category id's which I will try first then I'll check out yours Dan if it doesn't work. Thanks guys for your help...as always! Its nice to always know I can come here and still get good technical advice. Seems alot of my other forum "hangouts" have become more social then helpful. Nice job here Noppid!

Glad to hear that the members came through for you. Thanks for coming by. It's good to know folks are coming here and getting what they need. I have to admit, I'm not much on chat here, but I really find the questions a challenge. I'm lucky to have the backup of my staff and members though, because, believe it or not, I don't know everything. :p

well the WP plugin wasn't much help, however according to the CaRP page, after you isntall CaRP it's supposed to give you some codes, I'd imagine you can just put the code directly in your wordpress template, I wasn't gonna pay $47 to find out though :D
