<p>The RSS Feed checker looks through your blogroll for links with rss feeds and then stores the name and url of the latest article.<br />
The Links RSS Enhanced widget then displays the latest links in descending order.<br />
The idea for the widget comes from the blogroll widget on blogger.</p>
<h3>Technical section</h3>
<p>The plugin will create an extra table in your wordpress database to store the latest feed updates,<br />
this will be called links_rss with the prefix for your database e.g. wp_links_rss</p>
<p>A Cron (schedule) is created to run every 30 minutes and process links. Note that Cron in WordPress<br />
depends on hits, your WordPress website receives. So playing with this plugin within an offline<br />
environment (MAMP, XAMPP, WAMP etc.) without anyone or anything triggering the scheduling by<br />
sending requests to the WordPress page won’t produce any results if you do not trigger it by<br />
yourself.</p>
