Quick Start

Eter RSS is quite easy to use. After saving your options here, go to any Post or Page and add the following: <!--eter-rss:url::the_rss_url--> For example, if you want to display Yahoo’s Oddly Enough RSS, just add the following (in code mode): <!--eter-rss:url::http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/oddlyenough-->

Advanced

You may want to override the global options set above with specific options for a certain URL:

• To override the “Maximum Entries Per RSS” option, use the “maximum” keyword followed by the number of maximum entries you want to show, for example <!--eter-rss:url::http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/oddlyenough|
maximum::5--> (no line break between the pipe | and maximum) will only display the latest 5 RSS entries from Yahoo’s Oddly Enough.
• To override the “Filter Entries With Keywords” option, use the “filter” keyword followed by your filter strings, separaterd by commas, for example <!--eter-rss:url::http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/oddlyenough|
filter::curtain,small table,door--> will only display the RSS entries not having “curtain”, “small table”, or “door” in either the subject or the description. Note that entries containing “table” but not containing “small table” or “curtain” or “door” will still show. Note that entries containing “SMall taBLE” will not show; comparison is case insensitive.
• To override the “Show RSS Title” option, use the “title” keyword followed by “yes” or “no”, for example <!--eter-rss:url::http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/oddlyenough|
title::no--> will not display the RSS title.
• To override the “Popup Links in New Window” option, use the “popup” keyword followed by “yes” or “no”, for example <!--eter-rss:url::http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/oddlyenough|
popup::no-->. This code will make the RSS links open in the same window.
• You may mix your options using the pipe (|), for example <!--eter-rss:url::http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/oddlyenough|
maximum::5|popup::no|filter::curtain,small table,door|title::no--> will display a maximum of 5 RSS entries where the links open in the same window, where the entries having “curtain”, “small table”, and “door” will not be shown, and where the title of the RSS will not be displayed. Note that there’s no special order when writing your options.
