How to Display Feedburner Subscribers in Plain Text

29. June 2010 in Tutorials, Wordpress | 0 Comments

Feedburner came with feed count banner, but if you think this banner doesn’t match your website design or you want to display Feedburner subscribers in plain text, this is possible!

Copy and paste the following code into your template, for example sidebar.php, replace feedburner-id with your Feedbuner username. This script will grab you the feed count in numbers.

//get cool feedburner count
$whaturl="http://api.feedburner.com/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData?uri=feedburner-id";

//Initialize the Curl session
$ch = curl_init();

//Set curl to return the data instead of printing it to the browser.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

//Set the URL
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $whaturl);

//Execute the fetch
$data = curl_exec($ch);

//Close the connection
curl_close($ch);
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($data);
$fb = $xml->feed->entry['circulation'];
//end get cool feedburner count

Now paste this anywhere you want and it’ll display a Feedburner subscriber count in text.

echo $fb;

</p>

2. Replace with

<p>

8. April 2010 in Wordpress | 8 Comments

WordPress title tag also plays important role in SEO, it telling the search engine spider what your site covered, and allows your site to be indexed based upon the correct and most relevant keywords. If your site has good seo, then you will have lots of organic traffic from various search engines. So how to make your wordpress title tag SEO friendly?

Open header.php file, find the <title> tag, and replace it by the following code.

<title>
<?php if (is_home () ) {
bloginfo('name');
} elseif ( is_category() ) {
single_cat_title(); echo ‘ – ‘ ; bloginfo('name');
} elseif (is_single() ) {
single_post_title();
} elseif (is_page() ) {
bloginfo(’name’); echo ': '; single_post_title();
} else {
wp_title("",true);
} ?>
</title>

This code will generate title tags according to the following model:

  • Blog homepage -> display blog name.
  • Category page -> display the category name and the blog name.
  • Article page -> display the article title.
  • Static page -> display the blog name, and the page title.
