Hey folks,
i m working on someone else project and i am having problem. if u visit this page u wuld see rss feeds. when i put them within the <li> under the news i.e
<?php include('feeder.php');?>
it gives a unexpected error of T_STRING. what should i?
The error is probably not on that line. It could be that there was another previous line that isn’t ended properly. Is there more code prior to this line that you could show us?
well this is preety long page and a bad coding but i paste it all and highlighted where i need to put the page (its in bold)

and i get this error
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING
edit: the line where this error comes has include feeder.php
I don’t see include(‘feeder.php’);, but I do see this line:
<td><ul class="recentnews">[B]<li><?php echo ('feeder.php');?></li>[/B]
This line should be something like this:
<td><ul class="recentnews">[B]<li>';
include ('feeder.php');
$html .= '</li>[/B]
I don’t know what is in feeder.php, but this may not work the way you want it to as it is set up, but it will definitely not do what you want it to the way it is.
You also have two sets of lines with too many single quotes and that is going to give you errors:
echo 'Archive by category '';
single_cat_title();
echo ''';
echo 'Search results for '' . get_search_query() . ''';
echo 'Posts tagged '';
single_tag_title();
echo ''';
These should be (and they are separate in your code):
echo 'Archive by category ';
single_cat_title();
echo '';
echo 'Search results for ' . get_search_query();
echo 'Posts tagged ';
single_tag_title();
echo '';
Look carefully at number of single quotes in each group. I don’t know why you have echo ‘’; at all, but if you are holding that space to put something in later, fine. Otherwise, you should drop it altogether.
Make those changes and try it again.
feeder.php is a file that calls on to rss feed. i did got it working but if u see.its loading on top of page.where as i want it under news on the right side.
as for quotes. this is pretty nasty coding someone did and i have no time to clean it but to make the upper discussed problem solved.
If feeder.php simply echos its contents to the page, you can alter it to store it in a variable and substitute that variable into your content like this:
<td><ul class="recentnews">[B]<li>' . $variableYouCreateInFeeder . '</li>[/B]
Otherwise you are going to have to alter your script to wait on the include until you are actually putting your info on the screen.
how do i call a page n store its content to a variable? i mean i know how to call variable but how to store page content in that variable?
Well, if the page has everything echo’d or print’d to the page, then you would just change that to be like your $html variable. Example:
echo’d:
echo 'These are the contents of feeder.php';
switch to a variable:
$variableYouCreateInFeeder = 'These are the contents of feeder.php';
Then, where ever you want to put it in your script, like I showed above.
Hopefully, it will be simple and straight forward, but that is not often the case. There could be multiple echo calls, or it could be stored in a function, which makes it a bit more complex, but just as doable.
i wouldn’t go for that approach now as i can’t understand now (all slow now) though coz i have a problem that my content of feeder isn’t being displayed where i wanted i.e under the news
can u tell me what are u recommending. like echo page in variable and calling it. ?
Well, without knowing exactly what $wpage->display() does, I don’t think I can just rewrite your code posted here to make it the way you want, but if you can post feeder.php, I can probably rework that without much trouble to show you what I mean.
here is feeder.php content
<?php if (function_exists('fetch_feed')) { ?>
<?php include_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/feed.php');
$feed = fetch_feed('http://leading.microarts.biz/myrss.xml');
$limit = $feed->get_item_quantity(2);
$items = $feed->get_items(0, $limit);
} ?>
<?php if (!$items) {
echo "problem";
} else {
// everything's cool
foreach ($items as $item) { ?>
<div class="sidebar-post">
<p class="date"><?php echo $item->get_date('F j, Y'); ?></p>
<h5><a href="<?php echo $item->get_permalink(); ?>"><?php echo $item->get_title(); ?></a></h5>
<p><?php echo $item->get_content(); ?></p>
</div>
<?php }
} ?>
This should do that for you. Back up your feeder.php to another file, i.e. feeder.php.bak and then substitute this in for it:
<?php
$feederContent = '';
if (function_exists('fetch_feed')) {
include_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/feed.php');
$feed = fetch_feed('http://leading.microarts.biz/myrss.xml');
$limit = $feed->get_item_quantity(2);
$items = $feed->get_items(0, $limit);
}
if (!$items) {
echo "problem";
}
else {
// everything's cool
foreach ($items as $item) {
$feederContent .= '<div class="sidebar-post">
<p class="date">' . $item->get_date('F j, Y') . '</p>
<h5><a href="' . $item->get_permalink() . '">' . $item->get_title() . '</a></h5>
<p>' . $item->get_content() . '</p>
</div>';
}
}
?>
Then back in your originally posted script, find this line:
<td><ul class="recentnews">[B]<li><?php echo ('feeder.php');?></li>[/B]
and you can now replace it with this line:
<td><ul class="recentnews">[B]<li>' . $feederContents . '</li>[/B]
and you can add this line:
include('feeder.php');
somewhere, like right before this line:
$html .='<div class="outerhomedown">
That should do it.
not any error is shown but that is also gone (not being displayed)
Edit : you mentioned $feederContents . doesn’t $feederContents need to be declared?
Sorry. I didn’t write a line correctly for you:
<td><ul class=“recentnews”><li>’ . $feederContents . '</li>
should be:
<td><ul class=“recentnews”><li>’ . $feederContent . '</li>
I misnamed the variable in the first page.
Your a life saver Cute Tink. although i need another favor. i need to break the style after one rss post. like there are 2 post showing. there style is declared in css but how i apply it over here so each post get own style.
btw Thanks again and Thanks al ot!
Not sure what you mean by that. Could you be more specific about what you want to change about it?
well now its displaying it in one li. i want each post to be displayed in separate li
Ok. Two more changes to make. First, back to this line:
<td><ul class=“recentnews”><li>’ . $feederContent . '</li>
Change it to this:
<td><ul class=“recentnews”>’ . $feederContent . ’
Then in the feeder.php file:
$feederContent .= '<div class="sidebar-post">
<p class="date">' . $item->get_date('F j, Y') . '</p>
<h5><a href="' . $item->get_permalink() . '">' . $item->get_title() . '</a></h5>
<p>' . $item->get_content() . '</p>
</div>';
Change it to:
$feederContent .= '<li><div class="sidebar-post">
<p class="date">' . $item->get_date('F j, Y') . '</p>
<h5><a href="' . $item->get_permalink() . '">' . $item->get_title() . '</a></h5>
<p>' . $item->get_content() . '</p>
</div></li>';
