Tune YORGOO Blaster 3

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:
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.
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:
Enter a feedlink into the relevant field:
Example: http://yconomy.net/feed
Click on Syndicateand you get:
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:
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.
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:
You get the confirmation that x posts have been imported.
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.

I get to point of validation feed and not able to continue from there. I validated feed but can not continue.
Once the Rss feed is working, you then see the posts from the feed also in the ‘Moderatiion Queue’ if I click on Edit then I see settings below the post – how is best to configure these?
Some affiliate programs offer datafeeds – linked with your affilate id# to the product, this comes in the form of a csv, or xml, comma or piped or tab, zipped or unzipped. How do you add this to your blog. Instruction please.

When I went to my golfers blog.
the side bar was missing on the page
I scrolled down and it is on the bottom..
I clicked some of the sites and pages and they were ok???
can u tell e what if I did something or is it the site??
I am having loads of problems with the blaster. I feel like a babe in the woods : )
1. I would like to know if there are other templates besides the YORGOOBlaster or DUBLI, or are those templates mandatory?
2. I cannot add feeds. For some reason, when I try to add a feed I get up to “use this feed,” when I click the button I get the questions “Are you sure you want to do this?” I click yes and I get a blank page and when I go back the feed is not there.
3. My top right ad disappeared.
4. How and where do I add more ads to the blog, there doesn’t seem to be much opportunity to do that (I’m sure I just don’t know the route to use for this. Am I able to ad them in between feeds? If so, how?
5. Do some affiliate programs have feeds that could be used?
6. Can I get rid of the default items on the right like the “Free marketing newsletter”? Is there some advantage to this being there?
7. Where could I look for more in depth information to understand better how to use this, what I’m trying to do and how I can maximize the benefits of using this Blaster.
Automated Blogs are very new to me, however, if I had a better understanding of what I’m trying to achieve, I could do it. My technical skills are pretty decent and even pretty good when I understand what I am aiming for. I would appreciate help.
Thank you,
Cris
