Thank you Admin, I have a few feeds that allows this to be done as long as a link and credit is given to them(keeping it legal :) ). I am thinking of linking the feeds to a wrapper to solve this issue,keeping both parties happy.
Sorry, I ask two questions before for number 1. Question again:
1.Pasting this feed as php on my website template is that enough,so it can be read by the search engine as conent?
Sorry for the confusion. :)

1. Yes.

2. The content is coming from the feeds and they specify URLs to go to to read that content. If you wanted to somehow scrape that content into your own site, that's a development job. There are some packages and software out there that will do it, but it is generally frowned upon as it can have copyright problems, and is generally considered unethical (but it's totally do-able).

Hello Admin, Thank you for the advice, It does work now on joomla php modules, modules ..etc.
Question:
1.Pasting this feed as php on my site template is that enough,so it can be read by the search engine as conent or do I have to do something also at my host server site?

2.How do I get the feed content to stay on my site when clicked as oppose to going to the feed site page when clicked?

I would really like to keep my visitors on my site by keeping the content on my site.
Does this have anything to do with rss2html scripts?
I am really a very green newbie at this.
Thanks for all the help

It's not harder, it's just less likely to work. However, the trick is to get it working the way you want to isee it using JavaScript first, to ensure the positioning is correct, and THEN move to PHP. Unfortunately I can't point you towards any particular tutorials as they would need to be Joomla specific, but I imagine there are Joomla tutorials for editing your site's templates and so forth that would cover all you need to know.

Thank you for such a speedy response, Is there a tutorial that will show me where exactly to paste the php code. I really do not know anything about what tags or position the code should be in.I believe my site supports php.I prefer this, so the search engines could read my feeds.Is this harder than just pasting javascript?.

I'm not directly familiar with Joomla, but if you can edit the templates, then effectively it's possible. I imagine you might have a template for your 'sidebar' or similar place you can put your digest. Try putting the JavaScript code there to start with. Then just remove it if it messes up your pages.

Hello,
I am so new to this.Is Feed burner compatible with Joomla.I am using Ijoomla Magazine on my site also.I need to know how to and exactly where to paste php code on my joomla site. I figure it will be going into my html editor but this whole entering and changing code scares the hell out of me.The feed digest instructions are pretty straight forward up to the part about copy and paste.I know how to copy and paste just not where. I have a joomla site http://www.chisutra.com an ezine.
Any help would be a blessing.
