Blog vs. Feed Manager

On our site, we have a blog page with entries we wrote. We have decided that doing our own blogging is too much effort and we will instead use Feed Manager page to post blogs from others.

My question is this: Is there someway to create the Feed Manager page yet maintain access to our previous blogs?

Re: Blog vs. Feed Manager

  1. Create a new page and put feed manager on it - give it the same page name as the blog page if you like though it must have a slightly different url
  2. Add the feed url for the blog in the feed manager and verify it shows your blog posts
  3. go to page settings for the page that has the blog on it and set "Include In Menu" and "Include in Site Map" to false
  4. move the feed manager page into the same place in the site hierarchy where the blog was

that should work, then you can add other feeds to pull in fresh posts.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Joe - I suspected that that was the approach - thanks for confirming.
