In case you didn't know already, an RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a type of format used on web pages to export their content to other sites. So, what exactly can be shared using this format? What RSS can share ranges from up-to-date information like news stories for example to any other content source that the user wishes to compile and post. The Abcore Cadi Internet Services Platform has already had RSS at its disposal. But now we have something even better! It's called RSS Extended. So, what is RSS Extended? Keep reading to find out!

RSS Extended is an advanced version which makes exporting content to another website much easier and more flexible. With this new version, NGOs can choose the specific part of the report or other web content of interest to be shared on the other website. The options that this new version offers are:

• Normal (the RSS feed is taken as it comes, without any changes)
• Only the body (the RSS feed is the body of the news item)
• Complete (the RSS feed is the summary and the body of the news item)

Why is the RSS Extended useful?

To sum up, RSS is very useful for publishing news stories from other websites on your own page, such as those from federal agencies or the media. The benefits are not restricted to this, though. RSS not only allow us to import content onto our own site but also lets others spread content from our web page onto theirs. For example, if a web users want, they can receive in their inbox or on their web page any news that are published on the organisation's website.

This new service is available for all web pages hosted by Abcore Cadi at no extra cost.
