I’m trying to use radiant for a site, and the blog section is broken into sub-categories (or children). I’m trying to figure out how to create an RSS feed that will pull in the posts within these categories. Right now it just shows the high-level categories. Any suggestions? Thanks all… -s ---

If you’re using Radiant 0.6 RC2 or the ‘mental’ branch, you can install the “aggregation” extension, which will group together all of the child pages of the pages specified. Here’s an example of what I use for the homepage on my site; a similar technique could be used to create an RSS feed (I used it to create an Atom feed). \ \ # \ \ Posted in \\ | \Continue reading…\\ \ \ \ Each of the pages specified by URL in the \ tag are of the “Archive” type.

Great - is there a list somewhere of all the currently available extensions? -s ---

I was hoping somebody put would together something like this. Nice job Nancy! …With one exception. You’ve got me down as releasing two extensions. Unfortunately I have no extensions out there. I’m just opinionated enough around here that it /appears/ like I am producing something ;). I didn’t want to take credit where it isn’t deserved. -Chris ---

The WYSYWIG and Maruku extensions actually are by Nathan W… It is a nice list though and it will be handy to have it around for when .6 is officially released since the current list on the site will be obsolete. – Al Steffen ---

Hi all, I’ve been playing around with extensions lately and I’ve got a couple of questions, if anyone can enlighten me: # Can extensions add actual pages to the site on activation? e.g. As in, with slugs / URLs and everything, as if they’d been input through the Admin interface (not as in sub-classing Page etc.). # If not, can extensions add default content (HTML/tags) for a page type? e.g. if I create a page called “widgets” and set it to my custom page type of “WidgetListingPage”, can it then be autofilled with some appropriate HTML/tag content? Kind regards, -Karl ---

I’m still new at radiant but my guess is YES and I think this may work: In the migration file for your extension add code to create an entry in the pages table. Something like: Page.create(your params here)
