Hi all,

I've started work on drupalscotland.org again after leaving it idle for too long due to other commitments.

Anyway, i've started tpo open up the site so that if you have blog site and wanted to share your blog post on drupalscotland.org (as in feed your blog). Then let me know and i can add it to the site. All you need to do is tag your post with something like 'drupalscotland' so any blog post you want with this tag will only appear in drupalscotland.org.

Interested, contact me at: http://drupalscotland.org/contact

Thanks,

P.S. I'm hoping there'll be another meetup soon... anyone...

My feed is at http://www.drupaler.co.uk/blog/drupal/8; though not made any Scotland-specific posts (yet!), if you want to generally aggregate Scotland-based developers I'm happy for you to aggregate it.

That's fine, it doesn't have

That's fine, it doesn't have to be, so long it's about Drupal and all things Drupal :)

Will add the feed. Hopefully that'll also be good SEO for ye... if the sites gets good traffic. ;)

Thanks

P.S. Your feed has been added. One thing though, it still says admin blog, do you know how i can change it to have your name instead? or is that just how feedAPI works?

see: http://drupalscotland.org/blogs/admin

No idea... I've never used

No idea... I've never used Feedapi.

There's Feeds module too, which is sort of FeedAPI nexgen. Used that for the first time today...

Talk to gregharvey on #drupaluk -- he sets up that site and we just got things sorted to get aggregated on Planet per-user.

Do you intend to use any of

Do you intend to use any of the blog posting on drupalscotland.org itself -- in other words, will anyone create any blog nodes by hand there? If not, then you shouldn't be using blog module; your FeedAPI nodes should probably become stories or a custom content type.
If that's hardcoded, just hack out the link with hook_link_alter.

Yeah, still use the blog

Yeah, still use the blog module for general updates on the site. It why i thought i'll filter it all into blog, a bit restrictive but it's working. I think i'll found a setting hidden in the content-type for the feedapi. It's turned on so let see what happens with the next lot of feed coming thru.

Hmmmyeah it looks a bit weird

Hmmmyeah it looks a bit weird having my blog posts say they are by 'admin'.

I would either replace feedapi with Feeds module with rules to set up the user; or do some hacking about in the theme, which might be more expedient.

As requested, fixed. :)
