What this does
This will show you up to three news feeds on a new page. See screenshot or Online demo for an example.

Notes:
I made this hack for a client and I wanted to release it to the public. I will not be supporting this hack, I just wanted to share with the rest of the community. No the client didn't pay for this, which is why I am releasing...

I downlaoded this only to realize it was for 3.5.

Does vB 3.0.X have an equalivalent of this hack?

Well, for a free hack it's not bad and appears to work as intended. I'm assuming the author doesn't have a problem if we modify it for our own needs without re-releasing it?

I can tell it's a client job that went bad; there's code in the templates specific to a site (category left and right images, etc). It's easy to enough to remove and modify; I just imported it as a vbadvanced new php page, cleaned up the templates, and it looks fine. Using more than 3 feeds will require some serious modding of the code and templates though.

I'm not sure how it would affect load; I'll have to take a look at the code but I believe it pulls from the feeds each time the page is loaded which might be a problem on big sites.

This is a great hack. I actually combined it with the leftcolumn hack on this board. Only one question though. Is there a way to limit the number of items that get retrieved? I just want the 5 most recent items to show up.

Any help would be appreciated.

Any help would be appreciated.Since you're running vBa you might also want to check out this link (http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13489) over at vbadvanced. It provides RSS feeds in CMPS modules and is controlled via the ACP.
