Content from 3rd party apps on non-app pages

[Sergey Kucheryavski]

Hi,

is it possible to include some content from 3rd party apps to other
non-app pages?

E.g. I have a homepage which contains some static text. I also have a
News application which has /news root url (e.g. /news gives a news
list, /news/2007 gives news from 2007 etc.). Can I make a block with
last 5 news on my homepage or any other page outside the url scope of
News app? Will be very grateful for any suggestions, references, etc!

This is exactly what custom content types are for.

You can include extra options you might want, like the number of news items or a particular year/category as fields on the content type.

Thanks! But seems like I misunderstand something. Besides others,
custom content type needs abstract model. If I make News model
abstract in my app I will not be able to add/change news items in the
app.

Ok I think I figured out how it works. Thanks a lot once again!
