Viewbook just released a new feature that enables you to display RSS feeds in your Viewbook Pages (Standard an Pro accounts only). RSS is a web feed format used to publish frequently updated works—such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video—in a standardized format. This means you can add the feed of your weblog, Twitter or Flickr account or any other feed that’s available to your Viewbook website. A great way to integrate your existing weblog!
Simply add the tag below to the text part of your Page and replace the url with the url to your RSS feed.
[tag:rss items="10" url="http://www.viewbook.com/weblog/feed/" title_size="15" content_tag="content_encoded"]
You can adjust the following settings in the tag:
items; to number of items you want to display.
title_size; the font size (in pixels) of the title.
content_tag; the content to display, possible choices: description, content or content_encoded.
You can see examples here: demo.viewbook.com/portfolio/weblog_rss_feed
We’d happy to hear your reactions, if you experience any issues or if you have any suggestions. We’d love to see some examples in the comments.
I can´t see all content of my blog (pictures), I can only see the description. Why?

Try to change the content_tag=”content_encoded” to content_tag=”content”, or content_tag=”description”. Hope that works.

Just set this up on our site. Works well for us. Actually spent more time getting Tumblr working! Also, got it working for Twitter, very easy.
