    Hi,

    I’m building a news aggregator site where I fetch news from a couple of different news sources that converts into Posts. I want my registered users to have the possibility to choose which news sources (Post Categories) they want to see in their feed on my website.

    Is this possible with a custom field or something? So that when the user edits their profile, they can tick the box next to the source they want to add/delete form their feed.

    Example:

    “Select which news sources (Post Categories) you want to read from:”
    [ ] USA Today
    [ ] The Guardian
    [✓] The New Yorker

    The specific user above should now only see news from The New Yorker in hers feed.

    How would you guys accomplish a solution like this with BuddyPress?

    “see in their feed on my website.” – you mean on the activity stream? OR maybe it would be easier and perhaps more user friendly if this was a widget in a sidebar?

    Hi, not on the buddypress specific activity steam, but my own. I just want to know how to create a custom field or something in order for the logged in user to select which news sources they want to see.
