Do your sites share a database? Please be more specific about your setup and versions of both joomla and k2

Hi.

Unless you share a dababase, you might want to look at subscribing to RSS feed from site X by site Y using something like Simple RSS Feed reader (www.joomlaworks.gr/content/view/20/42/) then maybe massage the feed with some Yahoo Pipes (to extract the Featured items).

Interesting project :-)

I did something like this for one of my clients like 2-3 years ago hence I am a bit blank. He was using a CRM system that we linked with a local database using cloud computing.

However for joomla you can do the same using some multi site extensions. You would however have to have a different category for your featured items which you would move to your paticular category when they are not featured anymore otherwise the database sync would pull all items from that category.

extensions.joomla.org/extensions/core-enhancements/multiple-sites/5550

You can also write codes in the 2 SQL you want to link for featured articles in order to pull and synk information to each other...however you would face problems with the image sizes you use on each paticular website...but if these image sizes are the same then all good...

The only reason why we say something is infinity is because we cannot calculate it yet…and there are some things we will never be able to calculate.
