This is fantastic and exactly what I’m looking to do. Do you know a way of pulling the author name also? We use FeedBurner if that matters.

Thanks for your script. With this I made a module for PrestaShop (an open source ecommerce solution).
Thanks a lot !

Thank you so much for this guide! I’m implementing it on some of my addon domains to show the recent posts on my main domain. :-)

I only use PHP so I cannot vouch for other languages. Do some google searches for parsing an rss feed using the language your site is written in.

How do you do this on a NON php site?

http://kayarc.com/blog/2009/02/mysql-query-for-most-recent-wordpress-post/

/*mysql query*/ $sql = “SELECT post_date, post_title, post_content, guid, DATE_FORMAT(post_date, ‘%m-%d-%Y %H:%i%s’)AS post_date FROM wp_posts WHERE post_status=’publish’ ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT 0,1″; $query = mysql_query($sql); $array = mysql_fetch_row($query);


/*variables*/

$post_date = $array['0'];

$post_title = $array['1'];

$post_content = $array['2'];

$post_url = $array['3'];
$latest_blog_post = <<
/*design view*/

$post_title


EOD;

/*echo view*/ echo $latest_blog_post;

Hi Matt!

Exactly what I need on my site. Thanks :) Only things extra I need, if possible, is the post image thumbnail and post text (not whole text, just the first little part of article) to be included with the link.

Thanks again!

Hi – is it possible to use your code to also pull in a thumbnail image from another wordpress blog? It’s one that I also run, so there are no copyright issues. :-) It’s on the same server in fact, just a different account.

Thanks!

Matt,

Thanks a lot for your response. I am trying to figure this out since our ecommerce site is based on php and smarty. So home.php calls up home.tpl which is the main template for the shopping cart. Within home.tpl there are different {include file=”xxx/xxxxx.tpl”}, and one of them happens to be the one I want to replace with your blog snippet. The reason is that our blog is updated more frequently that the news mod we got

I’m going to ask for feedback in the shopping cart forum and see how we can make this happen. If you happen to be familiar with x-cart shopping cart, your feedback will be appreciated.

Again, thanks for your help.

@Global Fusion: First, the page that you want to display the most recent posts must be a php page (ie ending in .php and not .html, .htm, or the likes)

Second, place the first snippet of code listed anywhere in your page. Usually you would put this at the very top.

Third, place the code in the third code box into your page where you want it to display.

That is pretty much it.
