I use a forum syndication hack to syndicate my news.
Now, I have a slight problem...
My site has a very specific way of showing the day's news (see: http://www.enworld.org). Currently, each day is one thread, which allows for usage of VB codes to create the news in the correct style.
However, for syndication, each news item needs to be its own thread. That means that some hacking into the news sorting needs to be done.
The news needs to be sorted a) by date (but not time); and then, within that, by category (I imagine I'll have to use a separate news forum for each category).
Each category needs to also display a single instance of a news topic icon.
Any thoughts?
