fluxbb syndication methods
hi all.
i'm trying to use fluxbb as a backend way to display content. the person i'm making a website for needs a simple way to update his website. so i was thinking use flux to store the data and use syndication to update his otherwise static html pages. i'm currently reading through the wiki and playing around with some code. i would like to show an entire post by post id. (similar to the old punbb main page.) any suggestions?
many thanks!

Re: fluxbb syndication methods
Some more info would be helpful. What version will you be using? 1.2* or 1.3*? How exactly do you want to tie in? A cron type script, or the likes of an extension if using 1.3*?

Re: fluxbb syndication methods
i'm using the latest 1.3 development release. i figured since we can already use simple http get parameters i would take advantage of this. the guy currently has a website with about ten static html pages. it's a pain for him to update. so i thought it would be fun to use flux as a kind of backend to the database. like if he updated a particular post it would change the front page on his site. for a tie in i'm not sure yet. i haven't started writing anything yet. just poking around. this is probably a good time to learn about hooks!
