  I have a website that I’m adding a large footer to. One of the sections of the footers I would like to have 2 or 3 of my lasts posts from my WordPress blog. Also can I control what is displayed, ie blog title, blog text & author, ignoring dates or photos or whatever else. Then I’d have the title linked to actual blog.
  Is this possible?
  Thanks in advance…:-)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Your blog has an RSS feed – http://rabbidblog.wordpress.com/feed/

  You could display that in your footer on your other web site if you know how to insert the feed

  google.load(“feeds”, “1”);

  function formatDate(d, f) {

  var days = [‘Sunday’, ‘Monday’, ‘Tuesday’, ‘Wednesday’, ‘Thursday’, ‘Friday’, ‘Saturday’];
  return f.replace(/(yyyy|mmmm|mmm|mm|dddd|ddd|dd|hh|nn|ss|a/p)/gi,
  function($1) {
  switch ($1.toLowerCase()) {
  case ‘yyyy’: return d.getFullYear();
  case ‘mmmm’: return months[d.getMonth()];
  case ‘mmm’: return months[d.getMonth()].substr(0, 3);
  case ‘mm’: return (d.getMonth() + 1);

  function initialize() {
  var feed = new google.feeds.Feed(feedURL);
  feed.setNumEntries(numEntries);
  feed.load(function(result) {

  if(result.error) return;

  var list = document.getElementById(‘entries’);
  list.removeChild(list.firstChild);

  for(var i = 0; i < result.feed.entries.length; i++) {
  var entry = result.feed.entries[i];
  var link = document.createElement(‘a’);
  link.setAttribute(‘href’, entry.link);
  link.appendChild(document.createTextNode(entry.title));

  var content = document.createElement(‘div’);
  content.innerHTML = entry.content;
  var li = document.createElement(‘li’);
  li.appendChild(title);
  li.appendChild(date);
  li.appendChild(content);
  list.appendChild(li);
  }

  });
  }
  google.setOnLoadCallback(initialize);
  </script>
