Using multiple installations of AM2

Fri, 06 Feb 2009 12:02:54 -0800

Hi,

We're using 2 separate installations of AM2. The categories in each installation are identical, and I'm looking to create a page for each category that is a composite list of articles from the 2 installations.

I know I could easily do side-by-side listings from the 2 AMs, but what I'd like to do is have the articles interspersed. That is, list the articles in reverse chrono order, regardless of which installation they come from.

I realize now that the AM2 has the functionality in it to be able to essentially run to disjoint sets of articles in separate templates, etc. and creating the composite page I'm looking for would be quite simple if we'd used just one installation. That said, is there (short of moving all the articles from install A into install B) a means of accomplishing a composite page as described?

Thanks,
Chris

Dave,

Thank you for your reply, however, that didn't work. Is there something I need to have in the header of the page for the include to take?

Thanks,
Chris

I tried this tag (using[/#000000] [/#ff0000]) and got the following error:

Warning: include(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/cgi-bin/articles/templates/articlePages/tenMostRecentAll.html) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs:/tmp) in /var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs/index2.php on line 153 Warning: include(/cgi-bin/articles/templates/articlePages/tenMostRecentAll.html): failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs/index2.php on line 153 Warning: include(): Failed opening '/cgi-bin/articles/templates/articlePages/tenMostRecentAll.html' for inclusion (include_path='/var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs/cmsAdmin:.:') in /var/www/vhosts/eco-wisdom.com/httpdocs/index2.php on line 153[/#008040]

The include tag in Article Manager is this: [/#ff0000]

I checked through ftp and the path I used in the php include is correct. Any thoughts?

Actually, we were able to figure that part out. I'm still unsure, however, of how to pull Article Manager info into a CMSB page.

We do already have both setup.
We've setup a single page template already for manual entry of the data from Article Manager. Does that complicate matters?

Also, we want to make another page that pulls lists from 2 different CMS Multi-Record sections. How can we accomplish this?

Thanks,
Chris

Is there a simple way to use CMSB to pull recent data from multiple Article Manager DBs to compose a main page that's more than just a composite listing of articles?
