Hacking WP Robot and custom fields

Discussion in 'PHP' started by 100wordrants, Mar 20, 2013.

    I am currently working on a project which involves being a resource for many news articles and topics. I am going to be using WP Robot to pull in RSS feeds to gather the information. Rather than posting the content on my site, I am only going to be posting the title of the news article and the exerpt (if the RSS feed has it). I then have a custom post redirect plugin installed which will make it so when a user clicks on a post title, it will redirect them to the source article.

    WP Robot does not currently offer this feature. I have tried a few things but am not an expert in plugin hacking so am looking for experts who may be able to help or share some insight.

    The redirect plugin I am using is http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirect-by-custom-field/

    My blog is only on my localhost now so I do not have a direct link to it. AOL.com does this sort of thing all the time with headlines linking to the Huffington post.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
