Script that harvests blog urls and titles?

by Hyaku_Man Posted: 16 years ago 1 replies

Hey guys. Does anyone know of a script that can scrape/harvest all the blog post urls on a wordpress blog and put it into link form with the meta title tag as anchor text?

Like, the blog post is ilovemonkeys.com/chimpsarecute, title: "Aren't Chimps Cute?"

and the script outputs this: <a-href="http://ilovemonkeys.com/chimpsarecute">Aren't Chimps The Cutest?</a> (I added the hyphen to a-href so it would be readable, but obviously with no hyphen)

I want to load these urls into some backlinking tools, but I have some blogs with 1000+ posts so doing it by hand would be frightening.

If I was doing this, I would grab the RSS feeds (since they are already neatly organized) with a PHP program that can cut out the pieces (title and link) and insert it into whatever database you want.

I'm not sure if you know the programming side at all, but there are many options for RSS parsing that wouldn't be too tough to put together.
