Display RSS feed as main copy on my website
-
I was wondering how to take my blog, turn it into an RSS feed and then have the RSS feed show up as the main content of my website’s homepage. Is this possible and if so how?

I am having a somewhat similar problem. I am using the RSS widget, but it’s in a sidebar. I would like to foll two columns with RSS feeds from various news sources. Can this be done?

wwrresearch – thank you for providing a link to your blog. We can only display RSS feeds in the sidebar here, not in a post or on a page. (That’s how blog scrapers steal content, BTW.)
And you may want to link your blog to your user name as explained in the sticky at the top of the forum:
Go into your dashboard -> users -> your profile -> then scroll down to ‘contact info’. In the spot where it says ‘website’ fill in the address of your blog and save the changes.
Now… when you comment here and on other blogs, your name will link to your blog. If you do this before you post your request for help, it will allow forum volunteers to be able to help you quicker since they won’t have to ask you for a link and wait until you come back to post one. -
You could try hacking about with the WordPress XML RPC API… possibly by taking the feed into delicious.com and then publishing it from there to your blog.

@raincoaster why can you do it with wordpress.com? It has an XML-RPC API so you should be able to push content to wordpress.com. just need to hack together your feeds from elsewhere e.g. hacking together feeds with Yahoo pipes + http://ping.fm to post to wordpress.com
Not tried it but can’t see why it wouldn’t
