Mixing local posts with aggregated posts in the front page
Hi For a community site, I'd like to display in the front page both local posts (i.e. posted to Drupal by registered users) and external posts from selected blogs. I know that I can use the Aggregator module for displaying external feeds separately, but I want to 'mix' those with the local ones, so I guess there should be some way of converting aggregated content into local nodes. Or is there some way to achieve what I want with Views? Any help on how to do this will be very appreciated. Thanks -------------------------------------------------------------------- Albert Cuesta

I think that You can use FeedAPI to transform feed to node and after set "publish to the home page" to the nodes that you want to see in homepage.

The LEECH module allows you to turn aggregated blogs into nodes. It's the one I have been able to use most effectively. / liza Liza Sabater, Publisher www.culturekitchen.com www.dailygotham.com On 19.Jan.2008, at 06:41, Albert Cuesta wrote:

Leech is deprecated and you should consider using FeedAPI instead. http://drupal.org/project/feedapi blogdiva@culturekitchen.com wrote:

Ah. It's been deprecated for D5. I have sites still running on D4.7 I hope though there's a way to migrate from module to another once I upgrade. / liza On 19.Jan.2008, at 12:43 PM, Brenda Boggs wrote:

Well, FeedAPI sounds like the way to go. Many thanks to all of you -- Albert 2008/1/19, blogdiva@culturekitchen.com <blogdiva@culturekitchen.com>:
