    Rss feed from content pickers

    Hi,

    on my home page node i have 8 content pickers where editor can pick 8 pages and show them on Home page.

    I need to create one RSS feed from Home page based on content that is picked by that 8 content pickers. Every page has same properties (pageHeader, bodyText etc.) so that is not the problem. I tried something with standard xslt rss template but no luck.

    Any thoughts on way to do this?

    Thanks!

    Will be a great help to you here, as  you'll probably need to create then combine feeds for each page chosen - with something like...

    umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById(1234)


    or 

    $currentPage/ancestor-or-self::root//node[@id=1234]


    for each of your pickers, then combine them to get the n most recent items across all feeds.

    Got it.

    First i created 8 variables with my 8 content pickers. Than i created one variable called "all-pickers" with values from 8 pickers, and than another variable where i converted "all-pickers" variable to node set.

    Than i could just iterate trough each node, and get all values from them.

    Thank you, your post was very helpfull.
