    hi,

    I searched the forums and although there are a lot of posts about RSS feeds I did not find one that explains how to put a number of RSS feeds into one block. I currently have 10 main newsfeeds on my site - in 2 columns of 5 feeds each - each in its' own separate rss feed block in the center block area (using nuclei blocks)but I want to make the whole top portion of my center (block) one large newsfeed with feeds coming from different sites.

    I have seen this done on only a couple sites and don't know if the admins are just handing coding those sections daily or modifying the RSS feeds to combine them into one.

    confused? I am....

    regards,

    mark

    Try making an HTML block and put the following in it:

    Code

    <script src="http://rssxpress.ukoln.ac.uk/lite/viewers/rss.cgi?rss=http://www.PathToYourFirstRSSfeed.com"></script>

    <script src="http://rssxpress.ukoln.ac.uk/lite/viewers/rss.cgi?rss=http://www.PathToYourSecondRssfeed.com"></script>


    and then here, you'll simply replace the "http://PathToYourFirstRssFeed.com, etc with the appropriate address for each of the rss feeds that you want to include.

    good luck...
