Hope that make sense. There may already be one that I dont know about, but I have searched and havent been able to find one.

The way I use to do it is each subdomain has a RSS then I would pull that to the main site. Is there something like that already?? Heres the trick though, as I am pulling from about 8 different subdomains, I want only the top two headlines from each one.

Also would like to do this with reviews, and downloads. ANy suggestions??

Also would like to

I use XHLD by GIJOE, you can find the latest version on his website. You can specify the number of feeds you would like on the the module page and in blocks. There are several other RSS modules, a search should bring them up.

If your reviews and downloads modules have RSS, you just plug them into XHLD.

Perhaps I'm confused about what you want but...

You will install XHLD on your main site to display the RSS feeds from your other sites. You can specify the number of feeds you would like on the the module page and in blocks.

Maybe you need an RSS feed generator for your other sites?? If that's the case, then you can try RSSFit from Brandycoke. You will need to install this on your sub-domains to make RSS feeds.

Thats what I was talking about just not the greatest at conveying what I thinking through my fingertips.Thanks for your help. Will this work for the downloads and screenloads also as long as I install everything - but I imagine Ill have to tweak the code a little bit for each of the modules??

RSSFit has a plugin for WF-Downloads and MyDownloads, so if you are using one of those modules you should be okay. You shouldn't need to tweak the modules, RSSFit does a great job. It comes with a set of plugins for some popular modules.
