Hi, I have used Wordpress for CMS uses in websites which has worked well in the past. I have not transferred to Joomla fo greater flexibility in CMS. HOWEVER, there are a number of tools / plugins which allow "auto generated" content from articles, youtube, yahoo Q&A and RSS Feeds....Is there anything like this available for Joomla so content can be grabbed automatically from sources and turned into pages and placed into specific areas of the website... I dont want to get into a debate as to whether this is a good or bad thing to do as i am looking for the tools if they are available... Many thanks...
Hi there. Yes there are My favorite non-free one (costs under $40): http://www.thefactory.ro/shop/joomla-components/rssfactory-pro.html Also check out the other RSS extensions at this website Also see http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/external-contents/rss-readers http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/external-contents/automatic-articles/3538/details There are many free ones listed at Joomla extensions Best
I'm also looking for a automatic article directory solution for Joomla. Anyone that have a working solution that I might have a look at?
first stop for all Joomla related extensions is the extensions directory at Joomla.com Here are some that pull articles from sites and can enter content into your Joomla: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/external-contents/automatic-articles
This one would be the best with K2 & FLEXIcontent support: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/external-contents/news-a-feeds/automatic-articles/11403
