I want a way to display the Wikimedia Commons POTD (Picture Of The Day) on my local wiki. I already have 'Instant Commons' setup, but that only allows me to easily re-use the images locally, not display the POTD.
The {{Potd}} template[1] would be a simple solution, but not on this wiki.
{{Potd|width=300|float=right|lang=en}} would (on Commons) display the Picture of the Day.
However, that template is on the remote wiki, and it's not really possible to export/import that template locally. So, we can't use the template. The source looks simple at first glance.
But there are a million nested templates, pages, and modules transcluded.

Since the content is available via RSS feed, Install the RSS extension, and then leverage that.
Note
I should also disable the InstantCommons, and instead use QuickInstantCommons
