[Action Streams] Showing actions combined with blog entries

Vote 0 Votes

Is there anyway to intertwine the actionstreams with normal entries?

I want the mt:entries and mt:ActionStreams to mingle together ordered by date.

  • James, I *think* this is what I want to do as well. My own MT-Twitter plugin does this by creating an actual entry for each tweet. Then they get listed and you can style them differently as you wish. Thinking that if we iterate over the ActionStream list and add entries for each, then we can do something similar.

  • James, I found that the ActionStream invokes an MT callback each time it stores a new ActionStream event. So I wrote a small plugin that registers a callback for each of the event types that I want. Those callbacks create an MT entry for the event. Now, that the events are MT entries, they show up on the home page. Then you just do a little CSS & MT styling to get them to show up in different style if you like.

    Hi,

    I've managed to tweak my Atom feed, the Action Streams plugin and my MT templates to get full blog posts in my Action Streams template. Please see here:

    The howto is unfortunately in German:

    If you have any questions, just let me know.

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
