    I want all the post to display in 1 RSS feed regardless of the blog.

    So I went in the template and did this

    {exp:rss:feed weblog="{default_site|apple|GeneralGeek|Microsoft|GGaming|GadgetBlog|TechDeals|generalapple|su}"}

    But it doesn’t show all of the blogs even though all of them are listed. Am I missing something?

    I don’t think you should have the list of weblogs contained within curly brackets. Try this:

    {exp:rss:feed weblog="default_site|apple|GeneralGeek|Microsoft|GGaming|GadgetBlog|TechDeals|generalapple|su"}

    Removed the {} and it doesn’t work, it pulls some of the blogs but not all of them.

    Not to sound snarky, but are you sure that all of the weblogs have entries in them, and that none of the entries are expired, set to “Closed” status, etc.?

    Yup, there are 10 blogs

    {exp:rss:feed weblog="site|apple|GeneralGeek|Microsoft|GGaming|GadgetBlog|TechDeals|generalapple|su|smallbiz"}

    looking at the RSS feed generated

    it shos them all except for the first one.

    Have you tried using one of the generic feed templates and modifying it as needed?

    Yup, I didn’t really do anything except pipe in the other blogs

    Do all the blogs use the same custom category field group?

    If not, you’ll have to add the other custom fields to the template.

    I recently posted a blog entry on this very thing and explained how I got it working; there’s a commented screen shot as well as a plain-text file of my RSS template that’s free to use: http://www.bostonwebstudio.com/blog/entry/one-rss-feed-from-multiple-weblogs-or-channels/
