In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] attribution link problemMyCurator uses a fixed format for full text posts, with links at the top and the bottom to original article. Full text will cause problems with Google and original article copyright and is meant for private use. Because of this MyCurator does not have flexible formatting for full text posts. The format and links are fixed and can only be changed with custom CSS or code.
MyCurator focuses on formatting true curated posts which you create using excerpts from the text in the post editor.

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] attribution link problemAre you displaying the Full text on the single post page? It has a different format than displaying the post you create in the editor.

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Featured imasges are badly blurredWhen MyCurator grabs a very small image (like a profile picture) and then your theme expands it to a large size, it becomes blurry. I’ve seen it before periodically on my test sites. Small images have many fewer pixels so when expanded, they look blurry as they aren’t ‘dense’ with pixels any more.

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Featured imasges are badly blurredIt could be because of an image compression plugin, or option on your theme? On your email I’ve asked for some links to the articles with blurry images to test them on our test sites. Reinstalling MyCurator won’t lose any data or options.
MyCurator needs PHP cUrl installed on your site to work. Your host should be able to add this to your site.

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Suggestion: Automatic CategoriesGood idea, I’ll add it to the list. I think it would be a feature where one or more keywords could map to a category or a single tag (another request).

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Article date vs. processing dateWe don’t have an option to use the publish date from the original website as it is often hard to find by algorithm automatically. In the Options menu item, Curation tab, clear the option “Make Post Date ‘Immediately’ when Made Live”. This will keep the date that the article was found by MyCurator (but not the publish date on the original site).
MyCurator uses root word matching, so Grey will match Grey and Grey’s so you can just drop the apostrophe and use “Grey Anatomy” and “Gray Anatomy”. Also, we do all matching in lowercase so you don’t need to worry about whether the first letter is capitalized.

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Record of Linked ArticlesWe do keep track of articles we have used by title, within a Topic. So you can post the same article from different Topics. If the title changes then it could show up again. Also we do ‘forget’ about articles after a few weeks so if it gets reposted much later it could show up again.

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Featured Image in PostPHP version 5.4 seemed to be having problems with images, upgrading to 5.6 solved the image problem.
The full text of the article is in a metabox below the Post editor named Saved Page. Sometimes it’s contents could be hidden and you’ll need to click the little arrow at the far right top to expand it. Also make sure that you are in Visual mode (not Text) in the editor box so the Click-Copy yellow highlights show up and allow you to click and insert text.

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Invalid JSON Object ReturnedMake sure that your host allows outgoing PHP CURL calls to other websites from a plugin. Some hosts may block access with .htaccess restrictions or other blocks. PHP CURL is how we communicate with our cloud service to get the Plan information as well as curate articles.
Also, have your host check the server error logs to see if there are any errors related to MyCurator or an inability to connect with our cloud site, http://tgtinfo.net
