Add-On Releases - EPC Autoposter [LITE] for vBulletin

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 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, 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 !

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.)

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:

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

Best regards,
BTR

Thank you for sharing. Marked installed.

But which URL do I have to use? Can you please make an example?

Thank you

[slyreptile]

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?

so the only real difference is the random selection of username and forum id?

seems like you could just use the default vB RSS.

That's just what I was thinking. It seems this only adds the random-ness to the feeds.

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.

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 RSS
Das ADAIS Forum bietet mittelst?ndischen Unternehmen eine Plattform zum Austausch von wichtigen Informationen.

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...

No this was mentioned a couple times already 1 vs multiple is a big difference than having to enter in one at a time....

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?
