 * Hi all,
 * I’ve installed WP and been using it for a while, but some things don’t work (
   for instance, getting rss feeds from the WP site) because apparently I’m behind
   some kind of firewall, and need to set a proxy for curl.
 * What I need to set looks like this in PHP:
    curl_setopt($CurlConnection, CURLOPT_PROXY,‘
   [http://somesite:8080&#8217](http://somesite:8080&#8217););
 * No, I’ve bee googling quite a lot, but apparently not with the right keywords,
   because I didn’t find a clue about where and how I could set the proxy + port
   in WP.
 * I assume it’s probably very easy to do, once you know where and how. I hope someone
   can help me with this.
 * Thanks.
