Drupal Digest, now with tagging

Nov 13, 2008 in drupal, drupal digest, the future of drupal

By popular demand I added tagging to Drupal Digest. This allows you to create your own rss feeds from all Drupal Planet content about drupalcon or views for instance. To implement this feature I enabled the core taxonomy module and Feed Element Mapper to save the feeds' tags as Drupal terms. Along with the simple voting mechanism this is an easy and useful way to personalize the Planet's aggregated content. These are really low-profile changes that can easily be implemented for the Drupal Planet so I hope they get picked up as part of the drupal.org redesign.

good shot

looks good. To really evaluate it: Is there a way you could get in really all articles from Planet Drupal?
As long as it is different, it is hard to compare.

Because the Drupal Planet rss

Because the Drupal Planet rss feed itself doesn't contain the article's tags I have to manually enter all rss feeds myself. So I just took a couple of active feeds and I'm adding more feeds every day.

And maybe you'd like to use a different theme from Garland. Marketing includes the color of the apple ;)

Please note that I'm not

Please note that I'm not marketing Drupal Digest as a product, it's simple a live example of possible enhancements for the Drupal Planet, as part of the drupal.org redesign.
