It got to the point that over 90% of the articles from the RSS feeds were saved as "Drafts" rather than "Published". I was ready to shut down the site as it was just too time consuming to manually publish all of the articles.

In the plugin configuration I selected "MagpieRSS [GPL]" rather than ...

The plugin posts the article using the name of the feed as the authors name. There are no author accounts by those names. Besides some post and some are drafts. I dont see how this can be a permissions issue.

This is a screenshot of the admin console showing the mix of drafts and published entries from the RSS aggregator plugin.

And thats about average. Maybe a few less duplicate posts than normal.

Another quirky thing is that it often cuts the article short after justa few lines and ends it with several periods like this "..." But other times it will post paragraph after paragraph. You can see it here:

Ok, I will enable debugging to see what it says. I had considered it as a possible permissions issue but at times there will be several copies of the same article and some will publish and some will be drafts. Last nite as I was writing the post above it was especially bad about saving almost all ...

RSS aggregator questions

I am using the RSS aggregator plugin and am having some odd problems. It will often post duplicates, sometimes as many as 5 copies, of each article.

Plus, about half of all articles in the RSS feeds end up as "drafts" rather than "published". So far I have had to manually publish the "drafts" as ...

It also does it when you are configuring plugins.

Then why is the option to choose fonts even available in the WYSIWYG editor if it is not meant for that? So far almost every problem I have had is related to using that editor and requires editing of some template. Do you really expect regular users to be editing templates that much?

No, it is using the WYSIWYG editor not the media selector. Last night I was making a post and just wanted to change the color of a link in the post. It wouldnt let me. I tried half a dozen times, no luck. It was very frustrating. Eventually I found that if I changed the size of the font to 12 then ...

Links that do not work

When I make a link in a post I want it to open in a new window so visitors are not tempted to wander off from my blog and I want it to display the alt text of my choice.

Getting it to do that is usually difficult at best and down right impossible much of the time.

I will often put a small ...

I am using the latest version of Bulletproof and even being an IT type I am not a coder.

I tried a number of different templates before Bulletproof and yes the results were very different from one template to another.

I dont think I understand why you say I shouldnt change the fonts in the ...
