I have modded the extremely handy Wordpress RSS Digest plugin that was developed by Sam Charrington. The original RSS Digest plugin was designed to create a “digest” post from a select number of items from any RSS feed automatically. I made a few changes so that instead of generating one post containing all the RSS items returned, it instead now creates a new post for each item returned.
It’s a quick and simple way to populate your blog with numerous posts. It can be used to fill in new related content while you work on your featured articles. I am currently working the kinks out of having the plugin handle multiple feed sources. It currently can handle two distinct feeds with each installation.
You can see it in action here.
*Update: The plugin worked out so well that I have created a virtually maintenance-free website out of it. Check out Hollyweirdo.com to see it in action.
Here is a screenshot of the plugin settings screen:
