Plugin Request: More robust RSS aggregator

Neither of the aggregator plugins seem to let me do this.

We want to create a central site to display the latest blog entry from all of our blogs in chronological order.

It would also be nice to be able to configure it: * to display the latest X posts from all sites, regardless of where the come from, * to display the latest X posts from each site, so X posts from each site are always displayed, again in chronological order * to display the latest X posts from all sites, but only if they’ve posted in the last Y amount of time (days, weeks, etc). * to have all of the output customizeable through forms.

I would just write it myself, but i don’t have the free time now to learn the Textpattern plugin api.

Thanks

Re: Plugin Request: More robust RSS aggregator

uh, well, I’ll probably get some improvements done in my rss plugin, but for your application, it seems backwards to build the functionality into TXP if that’s the main purpose of your site. You could simply use Magpie directly, or use one of the feed aggregators that are currently out there.
