Hi. I have searched the modules, and maybe I am missing something simple.
I need to have more than one aggregator. Out of the box, all the feeds are aggregated to one aggregator. Need to have numerous aggregators with selectable feed sources by feed or category or both.
Does anyone know which module fits the bill!
Thanks!

You can do this with Feedparser with some tweaking
Feedparser can do a lot but you may need to tweak it some... Sources can seen on the sources page. I have altered it to show only the feedname instead of items as well. Each feed can have terms with multiple tags although they only apply to one tax vocab as the author wanted to reduce duplicates.
Why do you need multiple aggregators? Can you provide a scenerio?
Hi! Yes, Here is the
Hi! Yes, Here is the scenario:
(1) Multiple feeds related to Linux, aggregated in Category Linux
(2) Multiple feeds related to UNIX, aggredgated in Category UNIX
The current link is /aggregator (everything on one page)
We want a page for (1) and a page for (2)....
So far, we have not been able to do this.
I guess, now that I think about it, we can just use categories... right?
Use views and/or taxonomy_context with Feedparser
You can use views and/or taxonomy_context. The best and easiest to control with no code messing will be views. For a few more options you can use views_bonus.
Set up one vocab called Programming Languages, type Aggregator-item. Then for each feed you can enter Linux or Unix (if you need heirachry you can create appropiate terms back in the category settings). Then after pulling your feeds go to views and start playing. Remember you need to remove your items if applying a new term.
I like the combo of using taxonomy context and views if you have a spread out heirachry. Create a view with the url taxonomy/term and set your arguments. Then play around until you like it.
