Hi Paul, Of course you can do that, and depending on, what you are going to do with the aggregated content you need someone with a bit more RQL experience. Are you just showing the content within RedDot or do you want to publish it from this point?
When pulishing is part of the process and there is no need for a workflow, it would make sense to fetch the content directly from the live site using a .net or whatever script language might be used. Within RedDot you can do a lot of stuff to get things running :) Good luck, maybe try the reddot cms google group. http://groups.google.com/group/RedDot-CMS-Users Markus http://www.reddotcmsblog.com On Jul 1, 5:33 am, Paul <[email protected]> wrote: > Have a client (An agency) looking for some help with one of their > other clients who is running RedDot CMS.
