If you prefer an interactive example, be sure to checkout this recording of our livestream about Content Syndication:




If not, you can follow the instructions below for another example.


All connected sites must have the same configuration for the entity types you want to share. Our example setup includes:

Pools

  • DACH
  • Germany
  • Austria
  • Switzerland


Requirements

  • Every connected site will be able to create new content of type "basic page" and push it to any of the pools above. All sites belong to the DACH Region/Pool, so that when a content gets pushed to it, all sites will receive it.
  • Content that has been imported is restricted to be edited and can only be edited on the source site.
  • Besides the content itself we will also export Taxonomy Terms automatically that are referenced within these pages.


Sites

  • Germany
    • Belongs to the pools: DACH, Germany
  • Austria
    • Belongs to the pools: DACH, Austria

    • Belongs to the pools: DACH, Germany

In the following steps we assume that the 3 sites are already setup, and the content type "basic page" exists on all of them with the fields: Title, Category (Taxonomy Reference) and Body.
