I wrote an automated RSS2Post plugin. It takes as input a feed and using a scheduled event goes out out every hour to snatch up to 10 RSS feeds and insert the entries as posts.<\/p>\n

I took a while to write because I wanted it to work with 1) WordPress feeds, 2) Google Alert RSS, 3) Ebay partner network rss feeds, 3) Youtube Search RSS.<\/p>\n

Another problem was making it work correctly in WordPress MU.<\/p>\n

My GThread.com website has gone to hell in a basket. I originally had that parse the emails from Google Alert messages and plop them into web pages. It was hard to maintain.<\/p>\n

I have installed WordPress\u00a0 3.0.1 with MU and I will make all of the static sites into sub-blogs using the RSS2Post plugin to feed them.<\/p>\n

I need a way to ping all the blogs at least once a day to kick off the ajax part of the pseudo cron function so the site says up to date.<\/p>\n

I may have to write a plugin for one of my popular sites that kicks off a cron job to kick off the other site’s cron job – if that makes sense.<\/p>\n

I will run this for a few weeks to get the bugs out. I found another bug in my Stop Spammer Registrations Plugin, but I can’t force my users to reload the plugins every few days. I’ll wait at least a week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
