What I have done so far is use the loadvars function of flash to load some variables from a php file which is fetching them from the database.<br /> My post which is more detailed is <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/125184?replies=5">Here(http://wordpress.org/support/topic/125184?replies=5)</a>.<br /> I don't know if you have worked with mysql and flash together before but I hadn't and only ever touched mysql directly for the first time on Sunday. <a href="http://www.creativecow.net/articles/brimelow_lee/php_mysql/php_mysql_flash.html">This tutorial(http://www.creativecow.net/articles/brimelow_lee/php_mysql/php_mysql_flash.html)</a> helped me a lot.<br /> Good luck, if you want any more info on how I'm getting on I will be more than happy to share my progress with you.

I am still new to wp and the wp forums so I apologise in advance if this post is in the wrong place.</p> <p>I am looking to use wp as a tool for managing the content of a flash website. XML is the best way I know to get the content into Flash. But how can I convert my wordpress content to XML?</p> <p>I would like wordpress to manage news like items (posts i suppose) and some more standard pages of the site such as about us etc. etc. (maybe using pages?) </p> <p>I appreciate any help on the matter. I am not really sure where to start.</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> D </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/78940#post-587284 Tue, 10 Jul 2007 01:25:36 +0000 estjohn 587284@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>not sure if you would consider these as ones - but <a href="http://www.ericastjohn.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.ericastjohn.com</a> (still working on) <a href="http://www.aleeya.net" rel="nofollow">http://www.aleeya.net</a> and <a href="http://www.girlgeekette.net" rel="nofollow">http://www.girlgeekette.net</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/113368#post-587281 Tue, 10 Jul 2007 01:21:59 +0000 enoyad 587281@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Any response on this?

We have one that allows public access to search engines and RSS feeds and another to privately protect intranet services such as school bulletins. RSS feeds are restricted on the intranet unless users are registered and logged in.</p> <p>We would love someone to develop a plugin which restricts access to posts by user level but allows unrestricted access podcast or selected catagories.</p> <p>We are presently installing wordpress on all student Macbooks to extend our intranet further and promote ICT school-wide. Our students and teachers will be able access each others blogs and podcasts. A fantastic opportunity for our students.</p> <p>I would love to hear ideas on expanding this.</p> <p>I hope you find this info of use.</p> <p>We love Wordpress.
