RSS from two sections

Hi!

Is it possible to have rss from two sections? Like:
/rss/?section=artikel&section=veckans_ledare

Re: RSS from two sections

If you use the article feed option in the left menu of the page template editing form you can create clickable section feeds. If you want an auto-discover feed place something like:-

<code>
<link rel=“alternate” type=“application/rss+xml” title=“RSS 0.92” href=”/?rss=1&section=article” /></code>
<br />

in the head section of your template.

If you want a feed for comments there’s a plug-in for that as well.

Re: RSS from two sections

In my understanding specifying multiple sections for the RSS feed tag as comma-separted list as argument would result in an unvalid feed, but I’m not sure about it.
I think that the admin panel reflects that as well,
Logically what you would do , would be not to specify any section at all and then under presentation Sections assign the Sections that should be included in feed syndication, and then (eg.: by default it would grab the last 5 articles from all those sections assigned)
Articles can be filtered by categories though,however I didn’t have time yet to verify for myself, if all this works as it is supposed to.
