Limit The Number Of RSS Feed To Fetch

I need help with the code of the RSS reader i'm testing on my site, the script work fine but it show 20 feed and i wanted to limit it to a number i set (like 3 or 6 for example). T

Solution 1:

Just add counter and a break in the loop if you want to limit the results:

<ul>
<?php 
$i = 0; // 3 - 6
// Print all the entries
foreach($entries as $entry) { 
    $i++;
?>
    <li>
        <a href="<?= $entry->link ?>"><?= $entry->title ?></a> (<?= parse_url($entry->link)['host'] ?>)
        <p><?= strftime('%m/%d/%Y %I:%M %p', strtotime($entry->pubDate)) ?></p>
        <p><?= $entry->description ?></p>
        <img src="<?= $entry->children('media', true)->content->attributes()->url ?>" alt="" />
    </li>
<?php 
    if($i === 3) break;
} 
?>
</ul>

Or just cut the array using array_splice:

<ul>
<?php 
$entries = array_splice($entries, 0, 3);
// Print all the entries
foreach($entries as $entry) { ?>
    <li>
        <a href="<?= $entry->link ?>"><?= $entry->title ?></a> (<?= parse_url($entry->link)['host'] ?>)
        <p><?= strftime('%m/%d/%Y %I:%M %p', strtotime($entry->pubDate)) ?></p>
        <p><?= $entry->description ?></p>
        <img src="<?= $entry->children('media', true)->content->attributes()->url ?>" alt="" />
    </li>
<?php } ?>
</ul>
