in autobloggd when u add a new feed go to the post template below and it will look like this
in the very first line it says %excerpt% , just change it to %content% ,
and you will get the full feed content which is available in the feed

Ok, so I've pretty much gotten everything down as far as my techchuck replica goes. Now I'm going to start creating more blogs in different niches.
What is the best way to find good rss feeds? Any good resources out there? I know I can just google my keywords & look for sites that have rss, but are there any good rss directories out there?

Hello autobloggers
Here's how I emulated techchuck's tag cloud, including the page listing all the topics.
Ok, so for the sidebar we'll use the wp-colorful-tag-plugin. It can be found here: hxxp://blog.websourcing.fr/wp-colorful-tag-cloud-plugin-for-wordpress-reference-page/
To install, like all other plugins, just copy it in the wp-content/plugins directory and activate it. The settings can be found under Settings -> Colorful Tag Cloud. Access the settings and set up your color palette. The above link provides detailed instructions on how to achieve this.
Next, set the widget title (Topics, or whatever you like) and number of items to display (techchuck uses 20). Add the widget to your sidebar by going to Appearance -> Widgets and dragging it there.
Now here comes the hacky part: for the 'More...' link you'll need to open up 'wp_colofrul_tag_cloud.php' from the plugin directory and find the line that reads:
It's around line 305. Change that to read:
You can style this link anyway you see fit using its class 'sidebar_morelink'. For example, just open up style.css from your theme directory and add:
Now, we'll create the template for the topic listing page. Go into your theme directory and copy the file 'page.php' to 'topics.php'. To make Wordpress recognize this new template we'll need to add the following code right at the beginning of the file:
Next, find the line that reads:
and add directly under it:
where number denotes the number of topics you want to display on the page. You can also make any number of customisations in this file since it's a separate template file.
Finally, we must create the topics page. Go to Pages -> Add New. You can name your page anyway you like it, just make sure that the permalink is the same with the one we used when we added the 'More...' link to the widget. You can leave the content blank, but make sure you disable comments for this page. I also turned Sociable off on my page.
Now, the most important part: in the Attributes panel, click on the Template dropdown and select 'Topics'.
That's it, hit Publish and you're good to go.

float:right;
margin-right:5px;

<?php
/*
Template Name: Topics
*/

<?php the_content(); ?>

<?php wp_colorful_tag_cloud(array('number' => 100)); ?>Finally, we must create the topics page. Go to Pages -> Add New.

Poor TechChuck, not only did he get banned we now have sub sitelinks for "techchuck".
I wonder how many times he's seen this thread and said, "freakin assholes".
BTW my TechChuck blog is ranking #4 from 280 Million and getting tons of traffic. Anyone else seen good results?

hey man what do you mean by Banned? If you type techchuck.com in google it's indexed and there are 5,270 techchuck pages indexed... So I don't understand why you say its banned...
BTW I have managed to get my blogs to about 2-5dollars per day each blog. Really good results

Bad word usage, "penalized" then. Before when you searched "techchuck" he was in #1 with sitelinks which is understandable as it's his domain name. Now he's got the classic minus penalty and his rankings crashed.
$5 a day is ok, especially if you churn out 100. I've done tons of mods beyond what Techchuck has, getting thousands of people linking to me naturally thinking it's a real blog now.

Allright:
So I dont know if I am half or a quarter retarded and if this has been asked before, please redirect me, but
1. in all in on ad sense I select options for random ads to appear on site and they simply dont appear except in the "about" page and "site map page"
2. I want adsense banners running at top my actual blog as leaderboard and want to find out if there is software that can manually do this (didnt work with maxblog press) or if there is an actual file in theme I can go in and add the adsense that way
3. I am using feedwordpress and its working great but I need to see if there is a way I can have certain feeds be going to certain pages and not to others

I think there is a plugin that puts a banner in the header. I know I have seen plugins that put banners at the top of the content area.
Modifying the theme will work, but every theme is a little different. So I couldn't tell you what to mod.

the different prices are most likely due where the clicker is coming from. clicks from US are good. clicks form china or middle east usually are worth pennies.

never said he got banned. i know lots of people are running auto-blogs (myself included). just noticed the PR was missing.
