I am currently using DNNArticle from ZLDNN to post articles on a public website.  On a non-public website, I need to take those articles and make them into a forum posting (dotnetnuke forum, not a third party).  Here's the catch:  the postings can't appear to be from me.  This is for aesthetical, not legal or other reasons.

To avoid trouble for future administrators, I was hoping to avoid server-side programming.  I am hoping that, by posting here, somebody will be able to help with this.  Somebody had been copying and pasting the postings by hand, but they are no longer capable of doing it.  I do have an RSS feed available, if there's a way to go RSS -> Forum.  My last ditch effort is to write a trigger that inserts the articles into the Forum.

Thanks for any help!

There's a database procedure to add posts to the forums.  Passes in the subject, body, author, date, etc. etc.  You could write a trigger in the first app to call this function and it will insert into the DNN forums.

This is, in fact, my fall back plan.  I was hoping there was something that I could do with the forum module, directly, that would accomplish the same thing.  From the sounds of it, that answer is "no."  I've got another option that I'm going to attempt - enabling comments in DNNArticle and only displaying those comments on the non-public website.  I'll see how that goes over.
