    Hi,
    I am quite confused as to whether this is possible, and how it would be coded.

    I have a ‘In The News’ channel.(Fields include: title, summary, (pdf)file, image).
    All entries in the channel appear on the one ‘In The News’ page in ascending order.


    The three most current entries also appear on the ‘Home’ page.


    Now there is also a channel called ‘Media Releases’. (fields are similar to above).
    All entries in the channel appear on the one ‘Media Releases’ page in ascending order.

    What I require is this:
    If the user adds a new media release, i need the option for them to be able to specify for it to ALSO appear on the home page (same as ‘in the news’).


    So what i am saying is that the 3 items (title & brief summary) that appear on the home page, can consist of info from multiple channels.

    eg. if a new ‘in the news’ entry is added into the system, it will appear on the home page. if a new ‘media release’ entry is added into the system, it will appear on the home page.. etc. - within the same ‘Whats New’ section.

    (Only 3 entries total will ever appear on the home page. They should appear in asc order according to when they were added into the system).


    Any help is appreciated!
