This page is only the first version for the import of posts using a plugin like Syndication. It describes the mapping in a short form.
The new page on the configuration of the Syndication plugin explains it in a longer fashion. This page here might need update, the table shows many things in a succinct form.
Importing RSS Feeds into Our DB
In our concept, we decided to import the content of the RSS feeds into our WordPress Database in a CRON job. The import must follow the subsequent rules:
Our feed site is has the URL economicblogs.org
An RSS syndication is a list of RSS Feeds that belong to the same area of content, in technical terms our buttons.
The RSS teaser is the text of the post inside the RSS Feed, it is typically 3 to 6 lines of text.
| Term in RSS Feed Syndication | Example | Content and naming in our Wordpress DB(s) | Technical Solution for our sites | Rule | Example URL or....................... Example Text |

| Full post text for one RSS Feed inside external Wordpress DB | Post/Page | Not existant: Only internet link inside the post text | We do not store the full post text, only a link inside the posts | "read more at" {URL} | |
| Post inside the RSS Feed, a so-called "RSS teaser" because it refers readers to the blog | typically a three-line text | Excerpt of a post/page | Import excerpt into the relevant WP DB as post, | Set Text (Post) = Text(RSSTeaser) Set Excerpt (post) = Teasertext Set Metadesc=left$(Teasertext, 146) | blablablallab lalalalalblablab lallablalalalal blablablallablalalalal "read more at" {URL} |
