    about WP-Autoblog
    ok i installed the plugin

    i grab the feed://www.etc……. links and put them on the left box, one per line,
    my question is how do i know if the plugin is working?
    notes:
    no, the blog isnt moving or grabbing the feeds…
    also yes, i clicked on save settings, and run script now.
    reads something like..
    Warning: MagpieRSS: Failed to fetch (feed:this.is.the.linkcode) (HTTP Error: Invalid protocol “feed”) in (this.is.the.location.of.the.file.) on line 237
    im on wordpress 2.1 and latest WP-autoblog
    cheers,

    Change the “feed:” to “http:” instead. Or get rid of it entirely.

    No, what that’s telling you is that it does not like the feed URL you’re giving to it, or there’s something wrong with the feed.

    MagpieRSS is the feedreader name, and it’s built into WP. You don’t have to worry about it, focus on putting the correct feed URL in.

    I’m getting a similar error. You say magpie is built into WP? Can I disable it if it’s hindering what I want to do? I’m trying to make rss feeds from grouper and use them in feedwordpress and I’m getting the magpie error. How can I work around this? Here’s the feed:

    http://www.googlegaming.com/grouper/helpers/amazon2rss.php?q=playstation

    here’s the error from feed-validator:

    \This feed does not validate.

    In addition, this feed has issues that may cause problems for some users. We recommend fixing these issues.
