Hi,

I've been trying to make synchronize the announcement module of child portal's and that of parent's.
That means when I change some content on the announcement module in child portal how can I get the same content on parent's site on some module box?

Do I have to change or copy from specific "Default.aspx" file? or ascx file? If so, where can I reach there?

Please help me.

Do you want to have a single set of announcements that appear in every portal, or do you want to have some installation wide announcements that are also shown along with each portal's announcements?

I want to show each child portal's announcements on one page of parent portal at the same time.

Thank you in advance. ^_^

One approach would be to syndicate the announcements from the child site modules and have the parent site subscribe to all of the child site.

I've also seen advertisements for modules that help share modules and data across portals in a single installation. You might want to look at one of those?

Just to add, I would also go for the RSS feed method and take the RSS feed from each announcements module to display them in the parent portal. Info on RSS implementation is covered in issue 3

Hello Lee,

Thank you for your help.

It's helpful to me but after I linked using RSS http address(child's portal) when I visit again parent portal I couldn't see the contents. However, when I reload the RSS page(after I clicked RSS icon) or subscribe at RSS the page I can see the contents at the parent portal.

Is there any way to sydicate both pages without reloading or subscribing any page?

(I need at least 10 RSS modules on the same parent page to sydicate 10 announcement modules from each child's portals if the only way to sydicate is RSS module)

Joe,

Thank you for your reply.

Could you tell me how to set the parent site up to subscribe to all of the child site?

Add an RSS module to the parent site. Configure it to collect from every child site.

In answer to your other question, yes. Each child site will have to syndicate it's announcements. As for synchronizing, that will be done by scheduling the parent site to collect from the child sites. The exact process will depend on which modules you use.

I did as you mentioned.

Could you tell me if this is normal? When I click the icon of RSS on one module of child portal I have one new page to subscribe to new feed. If I go back to the "News Feed(RSS) module" on parent portal without reloading this page I couldn't get sync. but if I have reloaded and went back to that page I can see the same contents with child portal but If I revisit after log-out and log-in I couldn't any contents on it.

really confusing....

Please help me....

I'm not sure what is happening there. When you go the the paret portal page it should automatically display the RSS feeds without having to reload the page.

If you are displaying several RSS feeds, I would recommend using Orizonti Nuke Feeds Module

It can display several RSS feeds at once within one instance of the module and has options for storing in cache the RSS feeds so that it only has to update the content for instance once a day.

I think I have some sense....

When I add one external RSS feed site in News Feed Module for testing I can only see the code like attached not right contents like below.
(when I copy and paste here I can see the all contents even but not my site as you can see the attached screen shot.)

FARC commander gives up, calls for dialogue
The commander of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia's Force 47 has told reporters in Bogota -- a day after surrendering -- that "the solution is not through war. There must be dialogue."



Four people 'executed' in Baja California
Authorities in the Mexican state of Baja California are investigating the deaths of four people, including at least one American, whose bodies were found in a canyon over the weekend, a police spokesman said Monday.





I think you know what it is....^_^
Please let me know how I can fix this and thank you in advance.
