Inter-website content

[Hunter Lyons]

So... Let's say I made 3 different websites, all running IPS software. Now each was for a specific niche, however I would use IPS Connect to sync logins (and somewhat prominently advertise the other websites on each). Is there any way I could sync content between websites as well?

Just as an example- Let's say one was dedicated to sports and one to cooking. Beyond the forums specific to that website, I would have a 'global category' that synced across each website. 

Like... An example:

- Sports Forum Category:
-- Football -- Baseball -- etc

- Off Topic Category:
-- Politics -- Entertainment -- etc

So I'd want the sports forum category to only be on that one website, but then the off topic one would sync across any of the sites I set that up on.

I know syncing logins is possible inter-website, but is syncing content like that possible?

I'd like to know this as well.

You can check out the REST Api to see if that will help you accomplish what you want.

With that said, I really don't see the benefit of offering three distinct websites where you have to manage three separate installations when one website with 3 categories will entirely accomplish what you want with (with much less headache).
