Title: Plugin Capability Question Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Plugin Capability Question * [burakace](https://wordpress.org/support/users/burakace/) * (@burakace) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-capability-question/) * Hi, * I have a multisite setup, 1 main site and 5 sub sites. I want to pull all posts from sub sites into main site and display just a single image of the posts on the Archives page of the main site. When user’s click the image I want them to be directed to the original post. Is this possible?

Then, get the rss feeds from each of the 5 sub site and add them to the feed admin page (so you would have 5 feed entries) – again, this is on the main site using the plugin. Then, assuming you are using the shortcode, go in and choose 1 item for each feed for a total of 5 items. Put that shortode on the page you want and that should give you 5 items with each item coming from the different sub sites. Assuming the RSS from these subsites includes an image, there will be an image there that people can click on which will take them to the subsite (to the specific page on that subsite where the article is located). * Thread Starter [burakace](https://wordpress.org/support/users/burakace/) * (@burakace) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-capability-question/#post-4165010) * Thats great! Downloading plugin now. * So the rss feed for one of my subsite would be for e.g [http://www.mymainsite.com/subsite1/feed.xml](http://www.mymainsite.com/subsite1/feed.xml)? * Just to clarify, using the shortcode, I want to pull all post from each feed but want to display a single image only of each post(no excerpt) * Just like this example –[example](http://institute101.com/archive/) * Plugin Author [Allen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amweiss98/) * (@amweiss98) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-capability-question/#post-4165020) * ok..what that site is doing is bringing in the posts as blog posts (and using the image as a featured image). So, you need to have a theme that handles featured images…if you do, then you can use my plugin (but use the feed to post admin) to bring in the feeds just like before (1 items from each of 5 feeds). Choose the option to have the image be a featured image (again, this is in the feed to post admin page). At that point, the posts will become blog posts with a featured image – but then it’s up to your theme to do the rest of the work…like laying out the home page just using the featured image. * Thread Starter [burakace](https://wordpress.org/support/users/burakace/) * (@burakace) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-capability-question/#post-4165027) * Ok will give it a go now and update you if I have any issues.
