CG-Feedread on local server?

    Hi all,

    I’m developing my site on my local machine, and I can’t get the CG-Feedread plugin to show up in my plugins.

    Will it only work remotely?

    I have it installed on my site, where I’m testing a few things out. You don’t actually install it like any other WP plugin, or see it as a plugin in the list. It has to be done manually. I found this very helpful:

    Ummm, that’s not true.

    If you install the latest CG-PowerPack, the CG-FeedRead plugin is one of many that will show up once the contents of the archive are copied into your plugins folder. It has no administrative interface (in the current release..), rather you just add PHP calls into your theme where you want feeds to show up.

    I’m certainly developing and testing locally with WampServer (and have used other WAMP setups) without issue.

    What exactly is the problem? Even with permission issues under linux, it’d still grab the feed, just wouldn’t be able to cache it to disk.

    I cleared this up…

    I had to go back and re-read the documentation, but basically I got in a mess with what files to put in my plugins folder.

    Anyone else who has problems should copy the PLUGINS folder from the powerpack into their wp-content/plugins/ directory.

    After that it’s a cinch.

    Great plug-in, David!

    Oops, I thought you wanted the feedreader to put WP feed in a non-WP site, like I did! Sorry to confuse the issue!
