Using External RSS extension
Wonderful extension that imports external RSS feeds into your radiant install, but lacking in documentation!
InstallationGo to the /vendor/extensions directory of your radiant installation.
Grab the latest: svn export http://radiant-externalrss-extension.googlecode.com/svn/trunk external_rss
...or with piston: piston import http://radiant-externalrss-extension.googlecode.com/svn/trunk external_rss
rake db:migrate:extensions
rake radiant:extensions:external_rss:update:public
FIXME: is there a shortcut to the latter rake task, a la db:migrate:extensions?
