Really helpful future would be possibility to share Articles across multiple DNN portals running in same installation (same database). For example; I have one DNN installation with four parent portals of which every one have several child portals. Because content of these portals are related, it would be very helpful to have possibility to share news articles between, without need to enter same article several times in different modules. This future will be spatially useful if one could “collect” news articles from child portals and show them on main portal.

This has been discussed, but not available currently. RSS is the only method at the moment.

I understand that’s kind a tricky. Only module where I found this ability is Ad Banner Manager from Smoke Ranch, where you can show ads set in main portal on every other parent/child portal running on same database. I’m sure this feature could put NewsArticles on a higher level, so if you have time, I strongly suggest to investigate this. Until then – it is still very god peace of software.

I agree this will be VERY cool feature. Many companies now buy not only one domain name but a pack of them for future development. I always wanted to have a main blog lets call it cars.com (as an example) and then to have the ability to post articles to cars but if the category is BMW to post also in bmwcars.com. I know it sounds hard etc but its a cool concept if you want to manage big communities and add content with limited resources and time. anyway this idea wins my vote :)

Yeah it would be cool if you could make a lot go across parent portals. The way I we got around this is we have what would be portals as child pages. Then we have the news on the home page, pull from everything. Were each section only pulls it's category. (http://www.rkgamers.com)
