 * Hi all,
 * I’d love to use the above plugin. I’ve activated it, but I’m not sure if I’m 
   inputting my URLs correctly.
 * Do I put them in the post title? the post copy? How do I format them?
 * Does anyone have any advice for me on this?

 * A: Have you asked the plugin author?
 * 2: I, personally, have never heard of this plugin. In the event other folks are
   the same, it might be helpful to share a link to where you found it.

 * [http://www.underjc.com/?page_id=15](http://www.underjc.com/?page_id=15)
 * Via the WordPress plug-ins page.
 * Before I emailed the author I thought I’d appeal to the massed resource of minds
   on these forums.
 * But I guess I’ll email the guy.
 * UPDATE:
 * Went to the contact section on his site ([http://www.underjc.com/contact-us/](http://www.underjc.com/contact-us/))
   and saw this:
 * “Sorry. I haven’t had time to support firstRSS in a couple of months. I’m working
   full time and consulting. firstRSS works with most RSS feeds. If it doesn’t work
   with the feed you want to display, find another feed. I am working on a new version,
   but haven’t had time to sufficiently test it. Thanks for understanding.”
 * So anyone out there that can help?

 * I just installed this yesterday, if you’re still wondering… the first three feeds
   I tried didn’t work so try another address. Make sure you use the right brackets
   as shown and no quotation marks. I put the info right on a page in the content
   area and voila! Awesome. Except I want to block an image that it is feeding so
   if anyone can answer that for me…

 * Personally, I had formatting problems with firstRSS which I couldn’t resolve.
   IMHO, and I’ve searched through many plugins on this issue, one of the best ways
   to get an RSS feed into the body of a WordPress page, without having to stress
   about all sorts of WP formatting issues, is to use FeedDigest. You create an 
   account, run the feed you want to appear on your site through FeedDigest, check
   out the formatting options of the new feed, then grab the php code and paste 
   it into a new WordPress page. I understand you’ll have to be running something
   like runPHP (there’s a plugin by that name) to be able to do this.
 * Hope this helps.
 * (I’m secretly hoping that the more I answer other people’s questions, the greater
   the chances of someone answering my recent questions… 🙂 What goes around and
   all that.)
