David Zaoui	Tuesday 08 July 2008 9:54:45 am Hello, I have a simple question : I must display a list of some news in a template. These news can be found in a RSS feed of an other website( address of the RSS feed is like "http://www.awebsite.com/afolder/feed"). I don't know how if there is a simple was to just extract the latest news included in this feed and just displaying it in my template. Do you know ho to do that ? Thanks David
Ivo Lukac	Tuesday 08 July 2008 11:15:07 am Hello David, Don't know how good you are with writing own extensions but you can make a template operator for this case using the code from cronjobs/rssimport.php. For this case you would not create objects in db just return the data array which you can iterate in template.
