Say you have two links directories, lets call them site a and site b.
Site a has a category called "Accommodation" and has an established list of links in that category.
Then I create a category on Site b also called accommodation, and rather than creating a new set of links, I want to you use the information I already have on site a for that category.
What is the best, and easiest way to either... Import the links from the "accommodation" category on site a to the "accommodation" category on site b. Or altenatively, display the info from site a on site b, by sharing a database between the two sites.
I realise that by sharing a database I can display links from site a, on site b, using a toplist, but the problem with that is the link details page for site b, will open the details page for site a, plus site b will not be searcheable that way.
I thought about automatically creating XML files using custom templates with no wrapper and a toplist, then importing the xml file to site b. Problem is, using the xml import in the admin panel, if I imoport a link that is already in the link directory, will it create a dulicate link?
Any ideas on the best way to share links between two directories? |
