If I'm going to incorporate RSS feeds then I should use SMF for my forum (especially if I'm going to import RSS feeds). |
What are you using to develop your site?
If you use a cms it should have a built in rss module or widget or whatever... For example, I have been experimenting with SilverStripe a lot lately, they have their own RSS module that you can use to link to your own news... so you can have "current headlines" in a section on the home page...
If you are building this from scratch you can simply query your news posts from your database and determine how many headlines and how much text to show on the home page, it is pretty simple code...
