Create a new text file and save it in php format and name it feed and then paste the following code in the file and save it. So it will be feed.php
[php]<?php
//get cool feedburner count
$whaturl="https://feedburner.google.com/api/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData?uri=<strong>Feed Here</strong>";

//Initialize the Curl session
$ch = curl_init();

//Set curl to return the data instead of printing it to the browser.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

//Set the URL
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $whaturl);

//Execute the fetch
$data = curl_exec($ch);

//Close the connection
curl_close($ch);
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($data);
$fb = $xml-&gt;feed-&gt;entry[‘circulation’];
//end get cool feedburner count

echo $fb;

?&gt;[/php]

After pasting these lines to your file we have to add Feedburner user name, so replace the Feed Here with your Feedburner user name on the following line

[php]//get cool feedburner count
$whaturl="https://feedburner.google.com/api/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData?uri=<strong>Feed Here</strong>";
[/php]

Then simply add this line of code wher­ever you want the counter to dis­play:

[php]&lt;?php include("feed.php"); ?&gt;[/php]

Save your feed.php file to your theme files where you have hosted the blog.
