(Sorry for my not-so-perfect english)
When you open Dashboard in localhost without internet connection, MagpieRSS trying get RSS feeds but it can't, so the page break and you don't see your drafts and the footer.
(in WP1.5.1.2 rss-functions.php)
When MagpieRSS can't get RSS feed it call error function but error function isn't available.
The solution is copy error function from RSSCache class to after fetch_rss function.
The error function will be:
function error ($errormsg, $lvl=E_USER_WARNING) {
// append PHP's error message if track_errors enabled
if ( isset($php_errormsg) ) {
$errormsg .= " ($php_errormsg)";
}
if ( MAGPIE_DEBUG ) {
trigger_error( $errormsg, $lvl);
}
else {
error_log( $errormsg, 0);
}
}
So now we can use MagpieRSS to get RSS from other sites like Del.icio.us and Flickr without fear of page break.
To get links from Del.icio.us and display they in sidebar, use this:
<?php
require_once (ABSPATH . WPINC . '/rss-functions.php');
$delicious_rss = @fetch_rss('http://del.icio.us/rss/sewar/');
if ( isset($delicious_rss->items) && 0 != count($delicious_rss->items) ) {
$delicious_rss->items = array_slice($delicious_rss->items, 0, 5);
foreach ($delicious_rss->items as $item ) {
echo '<li><a href="' . wp_filter_kses($item['link']) . '">' . wp_specialchars($item['title']) . '</a></li>';
}
echo '<li><a href="http://del.icio.us/sewar/">more ...</a></li>';
} else {
echo 'Sorry, there are error when get rss feed.<br />';
echo '<a href="http://del.icio.us/sewar/">click here to show links in Del.icio.us site.</a> .';
}
?>
