Hi, I've just started building my homepage based on the great "John" theme, and I have a question regarding the blog section. Is it possible to import a blog feed from another existing WP blog, and show it on my homepage (in the section called "My cosy blog" in the John demo)?
Best regards,
SK

Hi,
"My cosy blog" is based on GK News Show Pro widget, so you can change Data Source options in the widget settings - try to use RSS feed and add your source blog rss feed url.

Hi Joshua, thanks for the quick response.
However, I don't seem to get it to work. In the GK News Show Pro widget, I changed the Data Source to "RSS feed" and I pasted the url of my source blog in the box below. But nothing shows up in the blog section (unless I click on one of the "Single post example" headlines, then I can see links to my source blog, under "Latest" to the right).
I'm a beginner at this, so maybe I'm missing something obvious...

Could you please provide me with a URL to your website and back-end access via PM (click the “Private Message” text underneath my avatar) so that I may analyze it?

Hi,
I've selected "RSS feed" as a Data source and pasted url of wptavern.com:
https://wptavern.com/
and it works properly on your website.

Ah, it turns out I pasted the URL in the wrong place... Now it works fine. Thanks a lot!
