Cross Site Publishing

Posted on Saturday, 05 July 2008 00:54

I'm working on a new centralised admin site to allow me to be sneaky and creative at the same time.

The site lets you add sites to a collection. The sites consist of a title, and the database details for the site. For article writing, I then enter the tables and fields that relate to the fields on the new article form, choosing to ignore any I don't want. When the post is submitted the user selects the site he or she wish to publish to and hey presto the content is fired off to multiple websites simultaneously.

This opens up the opportunity for users to see "What people said about this post elsewhere", linking in comments from the different releases of a post.
