    Default Can 'Google Blogger' be embedded into a Xara site?

    I need to be able to allow a client to add their in-house news items to their Xara Website (which they do not have access to)

    I have created a Blog with some news items, but can't figure out how to get that to embed into my site.

    This way I can give them a username and password for the blog.
    And the blog will automatically update and format itself within my site.

    Thanks

    At the simplest, you can use the embed a website widget.

    Do you know where I might find the required widget? What's its name? Can I buy one? Do you have a link?
    I've looked in the Xara Online Catalogue and can't see one.
    Thanks

    Use the "Embed a Website" widget. See http://www.cricketumpiring.com/blog.htm

    Brilliant, I managed up bring in the google blogger using the Xara >embed a website.

    Now, and I know I'm pushing it... but I suspect you like a challenge...

    My plan is to have this blog as a news page within my website.
    However on the homepage I wish to have a small panel with an abridged/mini version of the news.
    With say just the last four items, and then only the first three or four lines, then a link to the article in the name news page!
    Any ideas?

    MANY thanks.

    Sounds like you need to be able to skim data from an RSS Feed: https://support.google.com/feedburne...er/78465?hl=en.

    I have used this API to roll my own: http://uds.googleusercontent.com/uds...reference.html.

    Neither will be out of the box solutions, so spend time reading to gain an understanding.
