I am considering drupal as a CMS for a regional group that is collecting water quality information from a few sampling sites around the city. My initial approach is to use the flexinode module with custom fields to represent:
the date the sample was taken
the parameter measured (in a dropdown menu)
the protocol used to measure it (in a dropdown menu)
the value of the meaurement
field notes for the sample
I was going to use the category module to create a hierarchy of watersheds from which the sample was taken.
Ok...how can I suscribe to only 1 RSS feed? Perhaps, I'm behind in the times. Drupal allows me to have RSS feeds using "node/123/feed" or "node/feed/123"...ok. But, this feed returns 15 stories as a default. Why? If I'm interestd in just 1 feed, how can I get it and only it...not a group or category of feeds? Can someone please explain Drupal RSS syntax to me? Yes, I've trolled through the forums long enough...too long actually. Nothing, only bits and pieces. Is there a centralized section within drupaldocs that talks about HOW to use RSS and get feeds...both individual and category?
Sometimes the most easy things you want to do with Drupal appear as the most difficult because you do not have the right approach to the question. It might be my case here, so all my apologies if my question has (as often is the case) a simple answer.
