    Hi all,

    first of all a happy new year to all of you 😉

    i’m planning to setup EE for a news website for a customer. What we would need is to group several messages (node types) from different weblogs/sections into topics. Let’s say there’s a hurrican going on and multiple different posts (like a few news postings, an interview (which is in a seperate sections) a few videos (again another section)) should be grouped together to show links to the other posts in different sections just below one of the news posts or to have a little topic portal on domain.com/hurricane where all the related posts could be found.

    How would this be done best? Are categories the way to go?

    Thanks for helping!

    I would say Categories or even Tags using the Tag module would be the way to go.
