Banging your head OK after spending 4 hours getting this thing setup I am now very concerned that I can't do something so basic for a portal such as agregate content from other sites via rss.

Please tell me I'm missing something or there is some plugin that I need to download.

You may want to look at the FAQ.

You just create a portal type block it is easy peasy

OK that worked -- thanks!


Doh! - that was a mistake but can I limit the number of entries displayed?

I tired modifying config.php and and then looking for this setting in content syndication and in the block

In function COM_rdfImport in lib-common.php:
Text Formatted Code
$maxheadlines = 0; // set to something > 0 to limit max. number of headlines
 

A user interface for this will be in 1.3.12 ...

bye, Dirk

Chest-Slam Celebration awesome support guys!!!!


suggestion for 1.3.12 -- it would certainly be nice if this was a block setting versus global.

It's already implemented that way in CVS.
