Hi.
I want to use a feed from BBC news http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/technology/rss.xml
but it returns way too many links.
I want to limit them and have tried adding ?limit=5  but that doesn't work.

Do you know how I can do this pease ?

SMF and TP cannot handle this without you coding something to work that way. You'll have to use a thirdparty script to do this. There are a few out there if you google search.
