YORGOO Blaster allows you not just to feed emails but also to manage those feeds, authors and contextual or other advertising blocks using a Mail Feeder. Originally designed to combine Adsense (Google Ads) and Mail Feeds, it is a flexible tool to manage Mail Feeds and to combine all sorts of advertising methods.

1. Enable the Plugin

From your Dashboard select plugins and Activate there Adsense Inbox.

2. Prepare the use of the Mail Feeder we need to set-up

- a new email account

- a cron job

1. Login to your hosting cPanel and create a new POP3 Account. The mails arriving at this address will automatically be downloaded to your YORGOO Blaster.

You don’t need to configure your mail client (Outlook or Outlook Express for example). Just remember the address and the password as we will need these data for the Mail Feed configuration.

2. Set up a Cron Job: the purpose is to automate the mail download to your blog; by default we set the timer to download every hour, however you could also modify to set it to once per day or every 15 minutes or whatever interval you wish to use.

To find the configuration dialog in your cPanel, scroll all the way down to the menu at the bottom:

Cron Job for YORGOO Blaster

Cron Job for YORGOO Blaster

Cron Job for YORGOO Blaster

This is the command for our Demo Site:

/usr/bin/php -f /home/smartbid/public_html/follow/wp-content/plugins/adsense_inbox/cron_poster.php

Here is how you create your own command:

Cron Job for YORGOO Blaster

Under 1: this is your username to access your hosting account (cPanel)

Under 2: this is the name of the folder where you installed YORGOO blaster; here we have installed it in a folder called ‘follow’ which results in the URI http://smartbidtips.com/follow

The same would apply if ‘follow’ was a sub-domain.

If you have installed your YORGOO Blaster in the root of the hosting, you would simply not use any name as the wp-content is located directly in your public_html folder.

The link would be:

/usr/bin/php -f /home/smartbid/public_html/wp-content/plugins/adsense_inbox/cron_poster.php

whereas we have simply deleted ‘follow/’.

The Cron Job is now set to run every hour and to trigger the download of the emails into YORGOO Blaster.

Save the settings and exit your cPanel.

2. Configure the Plugin

Options

From your YORGOO Blaster Dashboard, access Adsense Inbox (AI), and select Options. Here we configure our email by entering the data corresponding to the email account you have just set up in your cPanel. 

Please note: your POP3 Server Name is mail.[yourdomain] on most hosts.

Akismet is the free antispam service of wordpress.com. This is an automated online service for checking blog or forum posts for spam in real-time.

For the rest, just copy from the above screenshot.

Test your Mail settings

Send a test mail to your new email account. As you don’t want to wait for the Cron Job to execute, you can trigger the download manually by addressing with your web browser:

Your_Site_URI/wp-content/plugins/adsense_inbox/cron_poster.php

In our demo case:

http://smartbidtips.com/follow/wp-content/plugins/adsense_inbox/cron_poster.php

This section allows you to configure email cleanup rules. This feature is used to remove unwanted information from the bottom of emails. For example in emails sent by mailing list robots there is an unsubscription information that you would never want to be displayed in your AI blog posts. To configure the new rule you simply specify the starting text that marks the beginning of all the text you wish to be removed and AI removes everything until the end of message that appears after this text.

One of the ways to load automated content is by using feeds and ‘convert’ your blog into a feed reader. The principle is simple: you add feed sources directly to your blog and publish the content, either as is or after filtering or editing it, epending on the contents and sources.

For this purpose we use the FeedWordpress Plugin.

From your Dashboard go back to Plugins and Activate FeedWordPress:

Tune YORGOO Blaster FeedWordPress

Now you will find a new sub-menu called Syndication Dashboard; follow the link and open Options.

Options are sitewide default settings, these settings can be overwritten for individual feeds.

I will give here basic settingswhich work for about every use you make. Depending on your own needs you may change these settings later to optimize the flow.

Tune YORGOO Blaster FeedWordPress

Tune YORGOO Blaster FeedWP Options

Below this author’s field, dont change anything.

As mentionned above: these are default settings and you are flexible thereafter to customize each feed you use.

Save these settings.

Select now Syndication from the sub-menu:

Tune YORGOO Blaster Syndication

Enter a feedlink into the relevant field:

Example: http://yconomy.net/feed

Click on Syndicateand you get:

Tune YORGOO Blaster Syndication

If the result is ok, select this feed by clicking ‘Use this feed’. By default the aggregator will look for RSS2 feeds. Depending on what your source feeds, your aggregator is able to import RSS, RSS2 and Atom.

Once you accept the feed, you are taken back tothe Syndication Pannel where you can update, delete or edit your imported feeds:

Tune YORGOO Blaster Syndication

Edit now the new Feed Source to define the use you will make of it.

Again, I will just make a suggestion for default dettings wich wor in most of the cases; you will fine tune in function of your particular purpose and of the source.

Tune YORGOO Blaster Syndicate

Tune YORGOO Blaster Syndicate

Tune YORGOO Blaster Syndicate

Save Changes and return to the sub-menu Syndication. There you update the feed now:

Tick the checkbox to the right of the concerned link and select Update Checked Links:

Tune YORGOO Blaster Syndicate

You get the confirmation that x posts have been imported.

Tune YORGOO Blaster Syndicate

You are done, your Feed will do it’s job without your intervention.

Please read our recommendation about the use of feeds; don’t overdo it!

You may add as many feeds you like, whereas you should make sure that they are contextual with the purpose of your site.
