Does a script exist that will pull full articles from Google News? - I.E. NO excerpts!

I have a site where I need something that pulls the FULL ARTICLE (no excerpts) from Google News about a specific individual. Again, it must be the entire article and I need these articles to publish to my sites automatically 24/7 as Google see's them.

I currently use the FeedWordPress plugin FeedWordPress | simple and flexible Atom/RSS syndication for WordPress for this but it doesn't pull the entire article. Someone suggested using ABS (Auto Blogging Software) because it pulls the full articles, but ABS is set up so that you have to manually check and approve whatever articles it pulls and I need this to immediately publish everything for this individual.

Does anyone know if something like this exists, or how to tweak the open source FeedWordPress to do this?

Any leads will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Steve

    Hi Steve,
    Yes, FeedWordPress just pulls the content of the RSS feed, it doesn't follow the links in the RSS to fetch full articles. I think "tweaking" it won't be enough, it has a quite complex code base. Seems writing a plugin from scratch would be easier. I did a search through WordPress plugin repository and couldn't find a ready-made plugin for that purpose also.

    I'm thinking that there should be an ABS doing this autopilot. Maybe you can look for an appropriate one. Or you can have developed a new plugin for this purpose, and fill this gap in the market (with selling it ).

      Yes, I've searched everywhere and haven't found anything that does this. Amazing.

      When I said "ABS" I was referring to the actual Windows program called "ABS" or "Auto Blogging Software" that some guy on this forum developed.

        Has anyone heard of such a thing that consistently pulls the FULL articles?

    There was a WP plugin, called Autoblogger. I thought it did what you're looking for, I havent used it in a while though.

      I don't think that is being offered anymore.

      Thanks
