How to do this?

sue-fl · 2007-07-14, 01:50 PM

Due to lack of time and my life not exciting enough to write about I'm changing my blog. RSS feeds confuse me no matter how much I read about them. What I would like to know is can I do this on my blog?

Get an rss feed link code from one of my sponsors and put it in as a new post? When I add the feed now it shows up in my sidebar. How do you get it to show up as my post of the day?

Thanks much

I like to use wp-autoblog. Since it's no longer available by the author, I zipped up a copy of it for you.

Unzip and ftp the entire folder to you wp-content/plugins folder.

Login to your admin and activate the plug-in.

Go to Options and writing and set the default category to what best fits your feeds.

Then go options and wp autoblog.

Under basic settings add the feed / feeds URL you want to use.

Under intellectual property settings set whether you want to display the full feed or excerpts. Select whether to attribute the original author or not.

Click save and then click run script now.

The plugin will periodically check to see if the feed / feeds you added have updated and automatically update your blog.

You ROCK Walrus!!

Thanks for the step by step directions and zip file. You just made my life a lot easier as far as my blog goes. I never would have figured it out on my own.

Thanks again it's much appreciated

Walrus, thanks for this too. I have a few domains that are idle and I'm thinking about putting splogs on them, but I've never really known how to do it. You've just made my life a lot easier.

Yup, thanks from me too Walrus..I blog a lot but mostly do it by hand and RSS skills seem to have passed me by because of it.
