One of Brightspot's strengths is sharing content within an instance (which means within our BYU Brightspot sites). That means that a college can feature articles from BYU News that relate to that college, and departments can do the same with articles from the college or from BYU News.
General Sharing Setup
To allow content from another site to be shown on your site, the other site needs to be accessible to yours. Sites can be added to your Accessible Sites list at Sites and Settings > Main tab > Advanced (at the bottom) > Accessible Sites. Adding sites to this list makes content from these sites available to your site.
Find Other Sites' Content in Search
Once sites are added here, the content will be searchable in a search window in your site. To see content from another site, open a search window and change the website to the one you want to search from. This is useful for adding promos to specific content from another site.
Tagging for Dynamic Lists
The best way to include other sites' content in your site is with a dynamic list (see Lists feature article).
