Hi all,

Let me explain my problem. I have the following structure:

– HOME  
|  
|\_\_ Section 1  
| |\_\_ Article 1 (published\_at: jan/17)  
| |\_\_ Article 2 (published\_at: jan/30)  
| |\_\_ Article N (published\_at: feb/10)  
|  
|\_\_ Section 2  
|\_\_ Article 1 (published\_at: jan/25)  
|\_\_ Article 2 (published\_at: jan/26)  
|\_\_ Article N (published\_at: jan/31)

I want to agregate the posts from both section on a single feed, but I  
want them to be sorted by published date, regardless of wich section  
they belong to.

The final result would be something like this:

- Section 1 : Article N (published\_at: feb/10)
- Section 2 : Article N (published\_at: jan/31)
- Section 1 : Article 2 (published\_at: jan/30)
- Section 2 : Article 2 (published\_at: jan/26)
- Section 2 : Article 1 (published\_at: jan/25)
- Section 1 : Article 1 (published\_at: jan/17)

Can anyone help me?

Gabriel

Gabriel,

I’ve been thinking of doing something like that myself. Here’s what I’m  
thinking in terms of tags:

\<r:aggregate urls="/section-1; /section-2; /section-3"\>  
\<r:children:each limit=“10” order=“desc”\>  
…  
\</r:children:each\>  
\</r:aggregate\>

I don’t have time tonight to work on it, but as soon as I have  
something, I’ll pass it on!

Ditto.  
We’re going to be building a newsletter mailer application that uses  
Radiant’s content management. I may attempt to make an extension out of  
it, but I haven’t really looked into creating extensions yet.
