Adds a simple to use [rss] shortcode with a couple of options:
<ul>
<li>feed, to put in the feed URL</li>
<li>num, to specify the number of items to show, defaults to 5</li>
<li>excerpt (true|false), whether to show an excerpt or not, defaults to true</li>
<li>target (defaults to none), to make links open in a new page (might break your html validity if under a strict doctype)</li>
</ul>
Example use:
[rss feed=”http://yoast.com/feed/” num=”10″ excerpt=”false”]
Or:
[rss feed=”http://yoast.com/feed/” num=”5″ excerpt=”true” target=”_blank”]

WPeMatico RSS Feed Fetcher

this plugin will slow down the website and the host, it has big IO and memory leaks

physical Memory Usage
768 / 768 MB (100%) physical memory

I/O Usage
1 MB/s / 1 MB/s (100%)

Dont mistake my post, this will happen after you add 4-5 campaigns, just installing the plugin its ok, the problem comes after when the campaigns run.
tried with external cron and different variations even altering everything on wordpress memory by configuring it and removing everything else from plugins and left just wpematico and wpematico+fifu even changed hosts this plugin cost me alot of time and money and effort before i come here, people must know before they rely on this plugin.

also it saves images rarely while they exists in the xml campaigns and you get F in gtmetrix cause its very hard to set the options to upload them in your server to the day i still try to configure this without success so the images load from other websites and your site will slow even more down at the point of 5xx errors database errors.

Huge Memory - IO leaks

Impressed


The free version works fine, but i strongly disadvice buying any extension from Etruel. They plugin clearly didn't do what was advertised and they refused to refund it.Watch out!


Extensions dont work
