Hopefully this is the easiest question ever asked. I have a WordPress site with BBP installed. I want to be able to pull the latest BBP posts in a php query I can use throughout the site. What is easiest way of doing this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'd go with wp-o-matic plugin that watches an RSS feed and uses cron to pull RSS entries. It also has nice features to decide which data you want to pull, and how you want to format it.

I was trying out AMP and wanted to make it work with Wordpress. I found the https://amp-wp.org plugin. I primarily want to explore AMP Stories, so when I read the plugin documentation here - https://amp-wp.org/documentation/amp-stories/ it says that AMP Stories are coming out as a separate plugin. So I checked https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/amp+stories/ but I couldn't find a plugin by the - AMP Project Contributors . So is this plugin still in pipeline?
Thanks
As an engineer working on both the official AMP plugin and on Stories, I am happy to answer your question.
First of all, it's great that you're interested in Stories! I'd be curious to learn more about the specific project you're envisioning to use Stories on. Would you mind sharing some more details about this?
To answer your question: Yes, this plugin is actively being worked on and it's coming soon! We want to make sure we create a captivating solution for visual storytelling that WordPress users will love, that's why you can't find it yet on WordPress.org. It'll take at least another month until we feel comfortable sharing the new Stories plugin with the community.
Once it's ready, we will make sure to announce it on various channels and update the https://amp-wp.org/ website accordingly. Until then, you might want to follow development progress on GitHub.
I've been stuck with this for a while.
I want to create a live link between my Drupal7 site and a SKOS/RDF web thesaurus.
The web thesaurus has a SPARQL endpoint.
I already wrote a SPARQL statement that returns me everything I want to be in my taxonomy.
I just don't know what to do on the drupal site of this.
There are possibilities to build views based on SPARQL queries, but I have no idea how I might convert that to a proper taxonomy.
Modules that could probably help solving this riddle are:
https://www.drupal.org/project/sparql_views
https://www.drupal.org/project/web_taxonomy
I'm still a beginner when it comes to Drupal, so what I'd need is a rather detailed explanation.
But any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
It looks like the Web Taxonomy module is what you are looking for. It can connect to your endpoint, help with autocomplete and create the taxonomy entry locally. You would need to create your own plugin for the module, but that doesn't look too difficult if you have a little bit of php knowledge. I looked at the DBPedia (https://www.drupal.org/project/wt_dbpedia) plugin and it is less than 150 loc. You could use that module as the starting point for your own work. If you don't know php, you might want to engage a developer to help out.
I did days of research and tried nearly every available wp plugin. But it seems to me like in English there's no way to find a solution.
I need a way to show the latest Sina Weibo feeds on my Wordpress website. If there's any way to get the weibo feeds as RSS, that will help me a lot already!
A reason is that many plugins are outdated since Sina changed the oauth to oauth2.0 and I can't read and write Chinese a lot, but speak.
Thanks a lot
Might be too late, but if you still need a solution, you can try http://sinacn.weibodangan.com/
Among other things it provides you with the option of pulling an RSS from any Weibo account. Search for your Weibo username, and then you will see towards the top of the page the link "RSS订阅TA的消息". Copy that URL and you will have the RSS feed.
Hope this helps!
I have found an alternative Weibo to RSS solution which is http://github.com/diygod/Weibo2RSS
It is an open source project written by nodejs. You can use the service the author provided or you can deploy one for your self.
This tool below is very cool:

I have a client that is using the basic feed for their Wordpress site (www.website.com/feed). She is asking how many people are subscribed to her feed. Is there an easy way to do this? I thought you could with Google Reader, but I guess those are only the statistics for Google Reader. I know Feedburner can do that, but will hooking up the feed to feedburner effect how the feed currently works on the site?
Thanks!
You want to start to use feedburner.
This article lays out some good ways to do that.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_FeedBurner
Using plugins, custom functions, and editing .htaccess files.
Because you already have this setup, I would recommend the .htaccess method.
Ask Apache full details.

What's the best way to pull data from Wordpress database? I think creating a plugin would be nice. Is there a tutorial out there that do the job? Or a plugin that does it? Pull content of the page via JSON/XML.
Cheers,
Mickey
Here's the link to the plugin:

A generic easy way to export data from a mySQL database in XML format could be phpmyadmin.net
If you are looking to integrate HTML from Wordpress in a PHP-driven site, the easiest and fastest way is to include the WordPress main include, and use the native WP functions to get hold of the data.

Just one caveat from experience: Wordpress is fat. Including the wordpress header file will eat up 8-12 MB of your allocated per-script memory (usually somewhere between 16-64 MB) from the start. You may be able to steer around that, however, by loading the Wordpress data in a different script, or caching the requests (probably a good idea anyway).
WordPress also has basic built-in RSS export functionality.
