Pulling News Feeds

Joomla has a built-in ability to pull in RSS feeds from other sites.

1. Go to Components -> News Feeds -> Manage News Feeds and you will see some same feeds already set up.

2. Click on Joomla feed to see its details.

We will show you how to obtain a feed's url later.

3. We can see the results of this feed under the Feeds section of the site...

These items are exactly the ones shown in the Joomla site which is syndicating the RSS feed...

If you click on the orange RSS button, you will get the actual feed URL that is to be added to the feed item properties in the Admin Panel.
