Go to the Plugins section in your WordPress site's dashboard. > 2. Click the "Add New" button. > 3. Search for "WP RSS Aggregator". > 4. When found, click on the "Install" button, then hit the "Activate" button once it has installed. > 5. Go to the RSS Aggregator menu item, then set up your [feed sources](https://docs.wprssaggregator.com/adding-a-feed-source-importing-as-feed-items/) and [general settings](https://docs.wprssaggregator.com/general-plugin-settings/). > 6. Use the WP RSS Aggregator shortcode in your page and/or post to display the imported feed items: `[wp-rss-aggregator]` Install Method 2: > 1. Click on the "Download" button above. > 2. Upload the `wp-rss-aggregator` zip file to your site's `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. > 3. Activate the WP RSS Aggregator plugin from the 'Plugins' section in your dashboard. > 4. Go to the RSS Aggregator menu item, then set up your [feed sources](https://docs.wprssaggregator.com/adding-a-feed-source-importing-as-feed-items/) and [general settings](https://docs.wprssaggregator.com/general-plugin-settings/). > 5. Use the WP RSS Aggregator shortcode in your page and/or post to display the imported feed items: `[wp-rss-aggregator]` *DISPLAYING THE FEED ITEMS* You can easily select the source for your feeds and also insert a limit via [shortcode parameters](http://docs.wprssaggregator.com/shortcodes/#core-parameters) as shown below. To get your feed source ID simply hover over the required feed source in the feed source listing page. It will appear beneath the name. `[wp-rss-aggregator source="ID" limit="num"]` An example of a shortcode parameter in use could be: `[wp_rss_aggregator link_before='li class="feed-link"' link_after='/li']` It is advisable to use the 'HTML' view of the editor when inserting shortcodes with parameters. *USAGE WITHIN THEME FILES* Here are two examples of a function call from within the theme's files: ` '', 'link_before' => '
  • ', 'link_after' => '
  • ', 'limit' => '8', 'source' => '5,9' )); ?> ` OR `` == Frequently Asked Questions == = How do I display the imported feed items? = You can either use the shortcode in your posts and pages: `[wp-rss-aggregator]` Or you can call the function directly within your theme: `` - - - = Is there a limit on the number of feed sources I can use? = No, there is no limit for the number of feed sources. 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. Check out our dedicated page on [WordPress hosting](http://www.wprssaggregator.com/recommended-web-hosts/) recommendations. - - - = Does WP RSS Aggregator work using JSON as the source? = No, our plugin does not currently import from JSON, it only imports from RSS and Atom structured XML. - - - = Why do I get "No feed items found" when I insert the shortcode on a page or post? = 1. Try adding a few more feed sources and make sure they are valid by using the RSS Feed Validator. 2. Try out the solutions listed on our [Feed Items Not Importing](http://docs.wprssaggregator.com/feed-items-not-importing/) documentation page. 3. It's important to make sure your WordPress cron system is working well. If not, the feeds cannot be imported. If in doubt, you can install the WP Crontrol plugin to check for [bad cron](https://docs.wprssaggregator.com/cron-intervals/#bad-cron), or go to RSS Aggregator > Debugging and hit the red button to re-import all feed items. If the problems persist, please [contact our support team](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-rss-aggregator). If you're using a premium add-on, please use the [premium support channel](https://www.wprssaggregator.com/contact/). - - - = Can I store imported feed items as posts? = Yes! You can do that with the [Feed to Post](http://www.wprssaggregator.com/extensions/feed-to-post) premium add-on. You will not only be able to store items as posts, but also as any other custom post type. You can also set the author, set tags and categories, import images into the gallery or set featured images, and much more. - - - = Some RSS feeds only give a short excerpt. Any way around that? = Yes, along with the [Feed to Post](http://www.wprssaggregator.com/extensions/feed-to-post) add-on we have another add-on called [Full Text RSS Feeds](http://www.wprssaggregator.com/extension/full-text-rss-feeds/) that can get the full content of most feeds that only supply a short excerpt. The Full Text RSS Feeds add-on requires Feed to Post and a valid license key to function. - - - = I'm not sure which premium add-ons are right for me. Can you help me out? = Sure! We wrote a [post](http://www.wprssaggregator.com/add-ons-purchase/) just for you. Read about which add-ons you should buy as we explain the different types of usage so you'll know what to expect when purchasing. If you need any further help you can [contact our support team](http://www.wprssaggregator.com/contact/) or try out our [Simple Feeds Bundle demo](http://simple.wprssaggregator.com/) and [Advanced Feeds Bundle demo](http://demo.wprssaggregator.com/). - - - = Where can I find the documentation for the plugin? = Our complete documentation with FAQs included can be found on our dedicated [documentation website](http://docs.wprssaggregator.com/). == Screenshots == 1.
