    Is it possible to get an external news feed to appear in the sitewide activity page?

    Hi Sam @investa

    Good to hear from you again.  Yes, you can go to Appearance>>Widgets and select “Sitewide Sidebar” and then drag the “RSS” widget into that area.  Then you can paste in the url of your news feed and (optionally) provide a title. The process can be repeated as many times as you want to list more feeds. I’m sure there are a slew of RSS plugins that you can optionally install that might provide more features and options – but the basic one should get you started.

    Hope this helps.

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.

The Commons In A Box was made possible through the generous support of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

The CUNY Graduate Center has directly contributed to the CUNY Academic Commons, housing the project since its inception, and has contributed to CBOX through its GC Digital Initiatives.
