Blog posts automatically posted to another page
Permalink
Hi,
Is there any add on out there that does the following?
1. A blog that can be updated on any given page by an admin.
2. That same blog is partly posted on another page (decided by me). This would show the first part of this blog and then have a 'read more' link.
Is this possible?
Thanks
Barry

I was able to set up the composer option but now I have another question :-/
I want to truncate the Blogs on the parent page. At the moment the whole blog shows up on the blog page and the parent page. What I want to do is have the whole blog on the blog page and then on the parent page have the first 150 or so words with the option of reading further.

Please see the Page List Teasers add-on linked above.
I've tried to use this but unable to. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Never mind. Got it working. Perfect!!!!
1. Using the composer feature it is easy to add and manage blog posts. With sample content installed a Blog Entry page type is installed and the composer is preconfigured for a blog post with default blocks added. To edit blog posts you either edit the blog post page or click on the page in your sitemap and select Edit In Composer.
2. What you are looking for here is called a Page List. Just add a Page List block on the page you want. Edit the block to only show pages beneath your blog, and then apply the custom template called Blog Index. You can create your own custom templates or use Page List Teasers if that suits you better.
