EPC Autoposter [LITE] for vBulletin
What the heck is this?
Posts to your forums automatically via the REAL usernames of by predefining the usernames, rss feeds and the forum ids. Do keep in mind we do have a full blown version of the EPC Autoposter Full Version (http://www.blogtorank.com/auto-forum-poster.html) for vBulletin where you can take complete control over the whole posting aspect more easily.
All in all, everyone was wondering after creating 10, 100, 1000's of users on their forums and not able to to post with these users? So we decided to release this LITE version to accompany our other hack which is stated below.
Key features:
Autoposter is easy to use!
Simply fill in a few fields and that's it!
If you use our EPC vBulletin Mass User Creator (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=154637), this is your final solution to automated posting. Where you may post from anything that has a valid RSS Feed! So I guess the solution and to fill any void on your forums for using automated posting has come to an end for but we did create a full version of EPC Autoposter for vBulletin.
Your forums will appear much more active and alive, resulting in many more users, and many more users = many more sales = $$$!
Randomize the posting from an example 20 users, and 20 feeds, as this will assign everything randomly. Everything is totally random.Complexity of Installation:
2 - Files to upload
1 - File edit
1 - Phrase added
1 - vBulletin CRON job
1 - Create an articles directory to store all articles.
Say perhaps 1 minute to 2 minutes max.
How do I get support:
Support is given to those who click INSTALL...
All support for the LITE version will be held here, and if you purchase the full version all support is handled in the order received by our full-time reps in the CSC, NO support is held here for the FULL version! No need for support actually as we have thoroughly ran it through the ringer in 48 hours, watching the forums fill up :cool:!
So here's the LITE version and it comes with a full set of instructions and if you require any assistance on how to find feeds and what places are best for feeds, do post them in here. Also if you post anything in here that has NOTHING to do with the hack and support related issues, i.e. Starting drama on how unethical it is and blah blah, keep your drama out please!
(Note: this thing can cripple a MySQL server if you are NOT careful, so if you post anything about how the server has gone away, please fix your MySQL my.cnf file to be more optimized. We will be happy to share our my.cnf optimization in the forums if any need help on it.)
Change Log
05/18/2007 @ 20:00
Version 2 ::
Gives support of rotating and posting articles automatically along with the ability to mix in with the RSS feeds. (Create an articles directory inside your forums root for this)
Ability to manage all feeds, from one location which is persisted to the Add Autoposter underneath the RSS Manager Section inside vBulletin. Meaning once you enter these values, come back to this screen, everything is managed in the Add Autoposter for simple use.
Never duplicates posts of text files, once posted it will not post no more.
When posting from articles do note: The name of the text file will be the
Threads Title.txt, or Threads-Title.txt. (So yes the supported file extension is txt)
Do keep in mind the below:

Thanks!! We have found feeds all over from using other forums syndicated feeds, yahoo feeds, dating site feeds, social networking site feeds, just insert a few feeds and watch the forums grow. :)
As everyone may or may not know, if you are filling the forums with content or your forums are dying down on posters, this is one solution. Because content = the key to Google and the rest of the engines.
Also, on the news feed ordeal the Owners agreed on setting up a deal for the FULL version, where they are throwing in a free tool to use when in need of feeds.
More flexibility indeed in the full version, so the more support we find off the full version by others purchasing it (measly $2.95), the more hacks we will place out here for free and do some serious upgrades to as well. Our tools and ideas are always "automated." It's the best way to run a business.
Best regards,

Great we will add you as a supporter as mentioned! Also, do note everything is pretty much automated on the full deal except for the licensing. :)
Edited:
Added you as a supporter and you should receive a welcome e-mail within 1 - 10 minutes.
Rest is up to the Customer Service Reps, do note that we do work 24/7/365 just so you know. Also, all orders are processed in the order received. :) Patience is a need at times.

So I can enter in a few usernames, and they will show up as the names posting the rss feeds?
How much different is this from the actual built in RSS feeds in vbulletin? I have never used it so im just curious.
Thanks.

No you enter more than just a few usernames:
You enter in a list of usernames
You enter in a list of feeds
You enter in a list of forum ids (in Full version you just use the multi-select)
You enter in "bulk" rather than one by one. Big difference when you got a 1 vs unlimited, so hope this answers your question on the difference since you "never used it." Unless you want to painstakingly add in massive one by one, but that's your preference and if you wanted to add in multiple as I stated above then the hack is for you. If it's not then you simply add one by one using the "default" vB RSS News Manager.

Looks interesting but not sure how this is better then the RSS feed poster that is already in vbulletin. The only thing I see that I think is possible in this one is that it can randomize the username you post with.
blogtorank
08-13-2007, 12:38 PM
Not sure if you used them both to see how much more flexible it is here, we did forget to add the fact it'll randomize everything. As you can see within the RSS Feed poster where you have to manually enter one by one. Where our hack in the [LITE] will support the following:
1. Enter in Multiple users
2. Enter in Multiple feeds
3. Enter in Multiple forum ids
After you enter this, it'll add them randomly to the forums that you specified, can you do that in the RSS Feed poster? If you installed ours then you'll see why, because I don't see you downloaded it or installed it as of yet :)

RSS Feeds work to where they will only display what the Author of the Feed will allow per his/her setup. They work as teasers. However as you know in the Full version you will be able to add onto the "Title" and "Message" area. As this is only controlled by the feed owner.
Thank you for sharing. Marked installed.

Within there you would see the little RSS Icon, each one of those is a FEED to the source of each one, like I found in there:
ADAIS Forum (http://www.rss-verzeichnis.de/eintrag.php?feed=7184) RSS (http://rss.adais.de/feed/forummain)
Das ADAIS Forum bietet mittelst?ndischen Unternehmen eine Plattform zum Austausch von wichtigen Informationen.

http://rss.adais.de/feed/forummain
Haven't downloaded this just yet. Curious...can this be used to have specific users post specific feeds to specific forums....or is everything random?
Yes this can be used to have specific "users" post "specific" feeds to the "specific" forums. It's random when you drop in a "full" list rather than in batches and etc...
so the only real difference is the random selection of username and forum id?
No this was mentioned a couple times already 1 vs multiple is a big difference than having to enter in one at a time....
That's just what I was thinking. It seems this only adds the random-ness to the feeds.
No mentioned prior...

So can this do:
1. Enter in several usernames. Enter in one forum ID (news section), enter in several news RSS feeds
2. Enter in several usernames. Enter in one forum ID(jokes section), enter in several jokes RSS feeds
etc.
Or is this just going to randomize everything and have news rss feeds being posted in my sports and jokes section and have my jokes rss feeds being posted in the news section?

Yes, once you enter in a several usernames, enter in ONE forum ID and enter in several feeds it will randomize the feeds with the users. You can specify any forum in the lite version by forum id, within the full version (http://www.blogtorank.com/auto-forum-poster.html) (see screenshot number 2) you can just do a multi-select from the box rather than trying to figure out your forum id.
So answer to your question is, yes.

With that, I don't think you can use multiple usernames to post feeds. This may have legit uses for having bots for each section of the site or whatever.
That's just what I was thinking. It seems this only adds the random-ness to the feeds.
It is also meant to allow you to post automatically through 1000s of created users with his other modification to make them not look inactive and non posting.

So I'm confused, what this does.
Okay so I think this is what it does:
You take a rss feed from another site, put in into your control panel, and it takes the content from that rss feed and posts it on your forum?
Is this right?

ummm, so it DOES NOT have the ability of random selection of usernames and forum ids? either you did not understand what i asked or you're contradicting yourself?
SCRIPT3R
08-14-2007, 03:37 PM

correct, but he didn't want to use multiple usernames for the same feeds. so no need for this hack.

No I haven't yet. That what I was wondering what advatages there was for this over the default already available in vb. I myself don't have a need to randomize different topic post in random forums or by random users. But not the say I wouldn't sometime in the future. I still there its a thoughtful mod.

You should've said "Original content = the key to Google..." RSS content is treated as duplicated content by search engines. They know where content originated. I've never seen a thread that contains an rss feed on my forums have a good rank at all.
I wouldn't use your mod as a way to completely fill forums in hopes of search engines catching on, but as a supplement to existing content to stur up conversation.

Thanks for the comments, and yes it's just the fact of "streamlining" dead forums with live postings and if they wanted randomization then all the better. :) Just our idea of "expanding" what's there in vB was in mind, as any mod on the forums here in that matter is here to "expand" or give a difference.

Yes they do know where the originating content comes from is true. We didn't say use the MOD to fill your board completely, we issued the MOD to expand the ideas and minds of others, mainly for the fact of taking a board that gets only one post a day, two or low numbers and start posting something relevant to their board.
We have used craigslist.org feeds inside our advertisement area on our forums, and surely 40 new ones started posting immediately. That is what we call enticing others to post and etc... That's our goal in this is to help others perhaps get their boards posted to more frequently, then they can turn it off and let the "actual" "real" users post at heart!

Received a few PMs' here asking for names and some valid RSS Feeds, remember all these are fake names.... Now all the RSS Feeds are just via by keyword, you'll see...
So I thought I would generate a few for everyone to use at your own leisure to see. I found this tool very handy indeed for generating usernames via their built in dictionary:

With the post prefixes, i believe there is an option that allows you to use prefixes but also doesnt require you to use one? or something simmilar to that.
so if you can find the option that allows you to require a prefix and turn that off everything should be all sweet.

Yeah this is all covered in the Full version of this hack, as you see this is the LITE, the FULL version is covered in the Description of the hack. Which gives you WAY more flexibility.
We are working on a new LITE and FULL here to where it'll support content from elsewhere ;), not saying yet because we now have quite a few supporters, so this has enabled us to move forward on gaining content from elsewhere, which will not be discussed until released.
Also, do note look on here:
URL: http://seattle.craigslist.org/rts/
See on the bottom right of EVERY page per each category?
FEED: http://seattle.craigslist.org/rts/index.rss
You can use each RSS Feed you see and syndicate this to your "advertisement" area on your forums for more content! Just a FYI to some that may like to utilize this free feed service that Craigslist offers!

PS Latest update for v2 see the below screenshots because we are now going to be supporting "ARTICLES", the LITE version has support so far and now working on the FULL, once we are done, we'll announce it. :) The FULL version will be coming with extras (About 6000 ready-made articles)

Ability to manage all feeds, from one location which is persisted to the Add Autoposter underneath the RSS Manager Section inside vBulletin. Meaning once you enter these values, come back to this screen, everything is managed in the Add Autoposter for simple use.
Never duplicates posts of text files, once posted it will not post no more.
When posting from articles do note: The name of the text file will be the
Threads Title.txt, or Threads-Title.txt. (So yes the supported file extension is txt)So now you have the ability to simply upload a load of articles to one directory and use this directory as your despository for storing all of your articles.
Example:
The articles folder has three text files – So, when the cron job is run, it posts three threads (with title = to the file name., ie. “Wassup Fellas”) using randomn userids
When the cron job is set to run the next time, it will not post any new threads unless you add new text files to this folder, this is to safeguard you from DOUBLE posting the same content.
Now on this note, the EPC Autoposter Full Version (http://www.blogtorank.com/auto-forum-poster.html) comes with over 40MB of Articles, which is downloaded instantly after your purchase, :) so consider this a ready-set-go format for you. Not naming off all the articles here because there are thousands of them.
We will be updating soon on how to build your own Markov Chains to rewrite your own articles using RUBY :)

Attached here are some articles for the LITE users to use! Since we have many new supporters of the FULL version, we felt this to be a give-back to the community. Enjoy and make sure you mark install if you like this hack.
Because one member stated that there is a software out there selling for $140+ to do this for you...
(Yes we did raise the price for new FULL version to $4.95 from $2.95 to answer about 35+ e-mails and messages)

Wow! Who are these people? Where did they come from? In a age where contracting out your help desk is commonplace, these guys make you remember the way it used to be.
I purchased the full version of this. But being the noob that I am, murphy is a very close companion of mine. But there is no worry with these guys.
They have an "aim to give the best support possible on the planet!"
And No doubt! They are meeting that aim.
You will not be disappointed with them.:up::up::up::up:
And I haven't even gotten to using the mod yet. I'm still blow away by their support.
As soon as I get the chance, I'm going to send this baby through its paces.
Stay tuned

I'm gonna check this out when I get home from work.
I might turn off the cron though and I will just start the process manually at random intervals (perhaps only once every few days)

The autoposter and rss grabber are working like a charm, thanks for your help with those.:)
With the autoposter setup in its default configuration, it posts {rss:title}, {rss:description}, and {rss:link}
Is there a way to post more than just the description though?
I know that this is more of a rss xml question than one concerning the application itself, but can you point me in the right direction? Or is this strictly under the control of the feed owner?
To post more than just the brief description of the document in question would be the icing on the cake for me.
radarhunter also inquired about this back in post #13 of this thread.
Thanks.

You may add onto this, but if you wanted to pull more information from the certain feed, that's not possible due to the RSS Publisher's settings on his/her RSS Publishing system. They call these "Teasers." Hope this helps?
Otherwise let me know if you don't understand this and I'll find an article on this for you using our "Best-Friend" Google :)
Best regards,

You may add onto this...
OK, I get the picture on the 'teasers'. But when you say, 'You may add onto this',
are you referring to autoposter's article posting capablities?

No meaning you may add onto this post you see? Within the Body "Box" However it will mix up articles and RSS Feeds but not run them together to create what is better known as "SPAM."

Talked a while back here about making it where we can have you rewrite your articles if needbe, well we have developed a Markov Chains that is accessible to the public here for you all to rewrite your articles for FREE:
BlogToRank's Markov Chains (http://www.blogtorank.com/markov/)
Why is it free? Because of all of the supporters we have had here! So enjoy and let us know if you like this :)
Do any of these versions, Lite or Full support essential features like the following?
1. Rss Keyword Filter (feeds to post):
A Phrase
Another Phrase
A_Word
Another_Word
{Exact_Word_Match}
{Exact Phrase Match}
2. Rss Negative Keyword Filter (feeds to exclude before posting):
A Phrase
Another Phrase
A_Word
Another_Word
{Exact_Word_Match}
{Exact Phrase Match}
3. Title & Description Keyword Search:
A Phrase
Another Phrase
A_Word
Another_Word
{Exact_Word_Match}
{Exact Phrase Match}
Rss filter in vbulletin 3.6.8 is a joke. Keyword "tray" for example matches rss feeds with "betray" in it instead of only "tray". Exact phrase search is impossible. It also has no negative keyword search filter either.

No but if this is something you would like, you have installed this and would like to have it requested I'll be happy to put this on our plate as a to-do!

Blogtorank, thanks man. I don't really care about the Lite Version. I want to buy the full version if it includes those must have features. My forum is full of unrelated feeds and I gave up completely on the vb rss tool.
I bet you'll be selling a ton more copies if you support this. Do you have any idea when you will have this done?

Hey, we took notes of all you requested and will update here if we have any questions in retrospect to your request!
Ok, thanks for taking notes but my question is,
Do you have any idea when you will have this done or start working on it for the paid version? Tonight, 3 months from now, no plans at this moment as I'm too busy, when?

When we make the schedule next week we will let you know here in the following week on this, we don't just simply say times and dates, we have to plan our work out as a team. So right now "uncertain until further notice."
Best regards!
Ok, that's all I needed to know.

Bought the Full Version :)
Careful with that script. It goes WILD posting all over. For example you enter forum id 2 and hack not only place feeds there but all over other forums. This happens when you enter another rss feed url to the already list and click "Save". It also overrode all the settings I had to set manually on feeds one by one like amount of feeds to extract, time to extract, etc. Also, host was driving me crazy chmoing this script to 000. I only subscribed to 7 feeds.

I would like to see a demo of the Full version as currently the vB RSS feed is not working to my satisfaction.
Could I get a link to a forum using the script?
Many thanks :)
The full version is FULLY ENCRYPTED and buggy as hell so everybody knows. Not only is "the license tied to one domain" but all files are FULLY ENCRYPTED! No way to edit it. Deleted this crap. So much for supporting the vbulletin.org community... More like pissing us off! It's a $5 script for god sake. What's up with the encryption? Even Vbseo got the message loud and clear. ENCRYPTION ain't good for you.
Also what's up with the ton of stuff you require people to send you and must do in order to get the darn script AFTER they pay you? I was surprised you didn't ask for a social security number and the time I go to the bathroom. You should disclose all that required crap to the public before selling this encrypted junk. I guess all the complaints I see on the web about you and your other software are true.

I purchased this full version. It has been three days and still not able to download it. They have asked for information which I have sent and still the file is not there to download.
I have sent 2 support tickets with no response.

if you purchase the full version all support is handled in the order received by our full-time reps in the CSC, NO support is held here for the FULL version! No need for support actually as we have thoroughly ran it through the ringer in 48 hours, watching the forums fill up
No support is given at all is more like it.
I have opened a dispute with PayPal over the purchase of the Full version as I had been ignored for some time after my purchase & not been given a licence & I still do not have it licensed & working. I purchased this product on the 8/8/08 & it is now 22/8/08
No matter how good the concept...If you cant install and run the damn thing after paying for it & your requests for a licence and such are ignored (they should be given with the purchase anyway) then the product is a scam & a joke.
Uninstalled & will need to get PayPal to investigate it themselves:(
EPC & BlogToRank are scammers

hi thanks for this great mod BUT in my cron logs it shows me that the posts were made BUT they dont show up in the forum? I have checked the permissions of both the designated forum AND the users.
Also what should the folder permissions be for say for example the "articles" folder?
Last but not least I advise all those who want the FULL article post to remove ALL code from each individual feed in the "Body Template box" and instead add
{rss:content:encoded}
save and there u go. Granted not ALL feeds will allow for the full article.
