How to Display RSS Feeds from a Website in PHP

display RSS with php

I didn't need this particular piece of code till I started customizing my SMF mobile version and had to show recent topics on the homepage using PHP. Now this doesn't apply to SMF alone, its just a PHP code you can use in any script so far you know just how to do it. You can grab the RSS of any website and display it on another site and this is dead simple even if you have no idea about PHP coding. This is quite useful if you've got more than one site and wish to show updates on one of your sites to visitors on another site. Depending on how you want it, you can customize the display by altering this code or just using it as-is: <?php $rss = new … [Read more...]

Reposition Secondary Navigation Menu Above Header in Genesis Child Themes

genesis

In some cases, Genesis child themes often come with both primary and secondary navigation menu positioned right under the header. Themes such as Eleven40, Streamline and a few others have the primary and secondary navigation placed on top of each other and this doesn't look too tight.

I added the comment alright but the problem I faced was that the same comment was appearing on all web pages and we're talking of loads … [Read more...]

Customizing Simple Machines Forum (SMF) Mobile Version (WAP2)

SuperScreenshot0020

With the increasing rate at which people browse the internet, it's very important to optimize your site for mobile users. I have a web forum built with SMF 2.0 script and the mobile version isn't bad at all compared to the default mobile version SMF has to offer. Unlike MyBB that has a better mobile version plugin, SMF mobile version (also known as WAP2) looks rather too crude to be of interest to any mobile user. A lot of my web forum users use Opera Mini mobile browser and I had no choice but to make the forum's mobile version a lot better than what it was. Since mobile users are also more than 50%, I had to find ways to insert adsense for mobile into WAP2 to monetize it and I'm going to … [Read more...]
