Is it possible to have news from two sites going into one wordpress site

[ClaireH-184886]

Hi, i would like to know if it is possible to write original content on news on one site and then have it appear on two other sites as an introduction.

I am using wordpress so i am very knew to it as i normally use joomla. I am looking for a rss feed that will show the image and allow the intro articles to appear in a category of its own, for example, other news

any help would be great

A Google search for "create new posts from rss feed in WordPress" will give you quite a few options, Tim (since this is more a technical WordPress question than an SEO question)

Two plugins in particular to have a look at are WP 'o Matic and FeedWordPress.

This will be a double-ended process. You'll need to configure a feed specifically for the news posts on the originating site, then configure the plugin on the two receiving sites to parse just the excerpt and and image and add them as posts to a specified category.

Hope that helps get you started?

thank you for this. will doing this affect my seo. what i am thinking of is, i want to be able to put news onto one site and then share it with two other sites as a snipet. so two other sites which will have all of its original content will also see snipets of news to go and view

Wp o matic is now out of date and is not being worked on. It is a good widget but it is not showing images and feedwordpress caused us nothing but problems, so i am trying to find a rss widget for wordpress where i can have travel news on one site and then allow it to be displayed on two other sites to go with the other articles.

Given that WP 'o Matic was updated less than a month ago and is getting over 1500 downloads a week, I'd say it's still a viable plugin, Tim.

Setting up a system to import one site's feed as posts in another site is going to take very careful setup and coding of both the outgoing feed and the import process - not a trivial undertaking by any means. (As I implied in my original answer)

Simply having a widget pull in and display an RSS feed is definitely a vastly simpler process and there are many plugins out there for that.

Good luck!

cheers for that. I read that the plugin no long is being worked on, so i will now go back to them and see if they can help me.
