I’ve tried a couple of syndication options using WordPress and I’ve run into way too many obstacles. FeedWordpress plugin does not work on consistent basis with Google’s Blogger software.

What we’re trying to do is to syndicate Google blogs with some type of plugin or RSS convention so that when folks update their Google account, it automagically updates WordPress.

Anyone got any good advice or better suggestion for a more dependable solution?

Thanks.

Is anyone having problems with importing photos? We’re unable to bring across photos specifically from Blogger? Are there any fixes?

Thanks.

Hi Moshu,

WordPress was installed with defaults. I have not added any other service.

HandySolo, I have removed Pingomatic from the update list. Will that not effect the updates in the blogsphere?

I’ll give it a try and see if it makes a difference. Any other recommendations to increase performance?

Hi monkeypup,

Thanks so much for the tip. Worked like a charm!

Many blessings to you for your help.

Beer,

You’re right. I backed up, reinstralled a fresh feedwordpress and made your function edit as described. So far…so good.

Cheers. I’ll drink one on ‘Beer’ next time…

Hi Beer,

When I make modifications to the feedwordpress.php script with your revisions, my Dashboard under Manage Plugins is showing all kinds of PHP that is distorting the page display so bad that I have to delete the plug in altogether.

I’ve tried editing the file with your first 1637 lines of code (which by the way has a break) – noted and then I tried to edit just the function author_to_id, but no dice.

Any suggestions?

Thanks Beer,

I tried your patch. There was some confusion as to whether I should just update the function or the first post, but I still get wonky errors in the PlugIn display in the dashboard. Any suggestions?

THanks.

I’ve tried this feed resource, but it seems to pale in comparison to the former tools I used. I find no easy way to funnel RSS feeds into specific categories like FeedWordPress used to.

Is anyone using a Feed mechanism that automagicaly imports RSS feeds into existing WordPress categories?

Yep. Feedwordpress was pretty cool, but this app doesn’t seem to be supported for 2.0 version yet and that’s a bummer. The import feature was way cool and we’re really in need of a fix or a replacement.

If anyone has any suggestions….we’re eager to know…
