Basic RSS - Textpattern question... I think
Hi all, apologies if this is obnoxiously straightforward, but I’m new to both RSS and Textpattern, so bare with me!
I have implemented a simple blog with txp that is used as a section within my otherwise non-txp website. I would like to be able to have a link on the front page of the site that displays the title of the latest blog entry, or even better, runs through the latest two or three blog entries.
Since the rest of the site doesn’t use txp, I’m assuming RSS is the way to do this, but being so unsure and generally bambi-like in my experience with this stuff I’m not really sure how to go about it. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!
All the best!

You need any php (or what language does your site use) rss reader script, which can output latest feed entry.

Hi Beam,
You could also check out Feedburner. It is not that great of a service, but if you set up an account and “burn” your feed with it, they have a pretty easy way to put the latest headlines elsewhere on your site.
