08/29/2023, 7:23 AMI'm a temp working for a small local government organization.
I am tasked amung other thing, to help with the boss' website.
I am new to umbraco, but i am grasping the basics.
She wants to post the same post in two feeds. Is that an option?
I noticed a copy option. Is that the only proper way of doing it?

News
Other News
And you want to have a certain message posted in both, Copy is probably the easiest

08/29/2023, 7:54 AMif you would the message ALWAYS posted in both, then you could make something that checks if a notification (a Save for example) is triggered and then automatically does the same thing (need to do some coding for this)

08/29/2023, 8:23 AMI have two verison 7 sites where if you post a news item into one it appears in the other as well. But that involved some backend coding and API's. I can give you an idea of the steps if it would help.

08/29/2023, 8:28 AMThey are on the same sites.
The feeds, roughly translated, are called "arrangements" and "current/new".
The latter, i realize, is shown on the front page. So that's why she wants it there. Should have known that. Yet i did not.
I dont think she'd want it as a rule, and as you describe it, it seems the option is to copy the post.
Thank you.

08/29/2023, 9:52 AM@kvagram isnt it also possible to modify the feed that just takes the last 10 items by date for example ? 🙂

08/29/2023, 10:03 AMHere is the settings for the home page.
I can only guess at the boss' intention. But as you can see, the secund feed "aktuelt" or "current" is the feed she wanted the post crossposted to.
I suppose I could add the "arrangments" feed to the startpage, if there is a way to show only upcoming events.
Is there a way to do that?
Sorry for the photo. Cant get discord to work on the computer, might be a firewall issue.
