Based on this response, can I assume that any plug-in that also works in the header ie: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=235841 will create a conflict?

I was able to get this to work in 4.1.8, but it would never refresh, so I uninstalled... because I rather have VSa - Advanced Forum Statistics, but it would be nice to have "both"

How can I get this to work pulling in a wordpress blog

Although it's an xml feed, the extension isn't .xml

http://www.ultimatedallas.com/dallasnews/feed/

We keep being told that should work but it doesn't

ok, you need to know the file extension since this is the main issue you have as I understand. The feed url has to match the extension, otherwise, it won't work.

since your url is a news feed, I assume it is .rss extension, not xml

I guess you can try and see if it goes ok or not

Cheers
