When editing a post, the RSStoPost widget has no field available to enter a new feed URL. I can change the overall default feed URL in the settings, but not on individual posts. In addition it won’t accept Google Alert feeds as the default for some reason and says “There is something wrong with that feed” – I was trying to make a quick “monitor” to track & log activity around specific words. Please note, I have never used this plugin before so these problems may have existed before WP version 3.2.1 Hmm – another abandoned broken RSS feed aggregator – have tested 9 now and none perform properly in all aspects. Ironically this one looked like the best of all. If I enter a required feed URL it says “There is something wrong with this feed” – but there isn’t. Like aleceast, I find no field in the box on the post screen to enter desired feed. Developer, please fire up the PC and update this – it has commercial potential ! zondar, can you tell me if you’ve found a better RSS feed importer to posts ?
