Adding RSS feeds for articles?

[TheGreyWizard]

So I'd like to add some RSS feeds to have articles automatically posted on my main page/blog of the website so that I can begin to acquire content for users to read.

Where would these be added within the IPS suite?

You can turn RSS feeds on per database in the database settings under Options → Enable RSS Feed.

Ok so under Community>forum>settings I see my forums settings has RSS feeds enabled

But I would like to have my main page be the blog/article section (I think I have it set up to do this already)

But I also see under Community>forums>RSS/Atom Feed tab

So how/where do I then post the URL for the RSS feed so that it pulls the articles content to my blog?

Am I making sense?

Am I going about this correctly?  I'd like to pull articles from all over the web to my website so that my vistors/members can stay updated in a central location of the news/events/laws pertaining to my websites interest.

Is RSS what I want?  Or is there another way to go about pulling article content to my websites blog for my members to read/enjoy?

Thanks for the help!

Is your main page part of your IPS installation or not?

[TheGreyWizard]

Yes it is, I technically have it disabled so that the main page is disabled to vistors just because my website isn't ready yet.  But the answer to your question is yes.

There is an RSS import widget you can simply drag onto your homepage to link to content from external sites.

If you really want to embed the content in your site, you could use the RSS import feature for the forums and then again use a widget to link to these topics from your homepage.
