This is a plugin which will provide you with a widget in which you can pull thumbnails from up to two RSS feeds. I created it to showcase the latest posts from my daughters’ blogs with thumbnails of the posts along with the title of the post and a link to the original post.
I wrote this because I was originally trying to use the very nice KB Advanced RSS Widget, but apparently, the feed parser in WordPress doesn’t support enclosures. I still use the KB widget for other feeds on my blog.
Since I’m using SimplePie, I also could have just included the necessary SimplePie code in my template, but I wanted to include it with the other widgets on my blog and be able to move it around from within the WP Admin. Besides, what’s the fun in that?
