A CMS Development for a Web-Based News Platform and RSS Feed Integration for Media Headlines

Abstract

In today’s world, web-based news platforms play an important role by providing instant access to information from anywhere at any time. They allow news organizations to update stories in real-time, making sure readers stay informed about current events. Users can easily search and read content on devices like—smartphones and computers. These platforms also promote community engagement through features like comments and social media sharing. This project involves the design and development of a Content Management System (CMS) for a web-based news platform. The name of CMS is TidingsBD, published under the domain www.tidingsbd.com. The CMS allows administrators to manage news content, multimedia, user control, advertisements, user interactions, and much more via a dynamic admin panel. Additionally, here’s another project that includes an RSS feed integration system and is published under the domain www.tidingsbd.com/media-headlines that aggregates RSS feed information from various Bangladeshi media websites, displaying headlines with relevant images and timestamps. This feature enhances the user experience by offering a comprehensive view of the latest news, allowing users to navigate directly to original sources for in-depth reading. This dual project aims to simplify complex content management processes and streamline news updates, providing an efficient solution for news publishing and media aggregation online.
