 * I talked to host provider and they don’t allow access to fopen but rather cURL.
   But I don’t know how to use that with the Smushit plugin. I saw this link with
   some coding but not sure and where and what to put. here is the link [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/68570?replies=4](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/68570?replies=4)

 * Please don’t bump. The [forum rules](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/68664)

 * As for your question, the author stated that he’s modifying the BDP RSS Aggregator
   plugin:

   > v 0.2.2 and the file the above code is from is bdp-rssfeed.php
 * To modify your specific plugin, go to `/wp-content/plugins/your-plugin/` and 
   look through the files.
