I am quite new to Feed Informer, but it already looks a greater tool. I am aiming to reproduce the four most recent items from my RSS feed onto the website home page in a narrow box format. A further aim is for this to be SEO friendly and hence be visible to search engines. Hence I am trying to use PHP CURL rather than Javascript, Flash or similar.
My problem is that I can get this to work, both on a web test page and viewing via the HTML preview function; but only as a full web page width. I am trying to get this into a narrow box format as per the Template Preview, but to no avail. I canât see anything obvious in editing the HTML to tweak this. Would appreciate any advice and assistance to resolve this.

We are sorry for the delay with reply. Please use the following code to insert the digest in your web page:
<?php
echo file_get_contents('http://app.feed.informer.com/digest3/[digest ID].html');
?>You can use <div> tag additionally to change digest's size.

Thanks for advice and code. I have tried the code as suggested (I presume actual digest ID replaces: [digestID]). Unfortunately this gives a number of error messages on the displayed webpage and no feed. Messages include: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration; failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found; Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening. I have tried putting code within body of html, shtml, and php files. Is this a problem at server level? Further advice and assistance would be appreciated.

Could you please check if this url - http://app.feed.informer.com/digest3/digest ID].html - can be accessed from your server? Additionally, can you specify your digest id?

Many thanks for the quick reply. I have checked the url with my digest ID WCOBQYIO4D and this appears to work. My test page is also working, and showing the feed in the narrow format I require. I will have a play with alignment commands, but this is looking better. Thanks for your help.
