    Default Pulling in data from a Wordpress blog

    Hello!

    I've been playing around with several RSS feed scripts to pull blog posts from my wordpress blog to my Zen Cart homepage. Unfortunately, they all seem to be limited to pulling in the post title as a hyperlink back to my blog.

    However, I want to pull in the blog post content as well as images.

    Is there a better way than RSS to accomplish this?

    If RSS can accomplish this does anyone have a recommended script or plugin they'd recommend.

    I've seen that Zen Cart has a thing called RSS Feed, but from my readin it is only for creating feeds from my Zen Cart to another receiving website (the opposite of what I'm trying to accomplish).

    Any advice is welcome.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey SWGuy!

    I noticed you blog integration contains Carp, which I am actually using now! I'm assuming you've added new functionality to it? If so, that's fantastic!

    Assuming that's the case, should I uninstall my standard carp first? Do you know of any instructions/caveats regarding how to do so? I always do backups, but I'd like to avoid any headaches where possible.

    Thanks!

    OK, I installed SWGuy's Blog integration tool. However, I'm still having the same problem: only the channel and blog titles are showing.

    Whereas, the Wordpress rss feed coming from my wordpress site also contains text and image content.

    How do I get that text and image content into my receiving site/blog integration reader?

    Thanks!

    Tom
