i went to motortrend.com/rss/nonstandard_rss.xml and copied and pasted the rss feed onto wordpad and saved the rss file as a word doc. then i went to wordpress and under Import - RSS - Import posts from an RSS feed...i imported that rss file and it populated my page...

2007escalade.net/escalade/

am i doing this correctly? does that mean that tomorrow or whenever, the feeds are going to be updated automatically? we don't want to 'write' posts we want the rss feed to do the work for us...am i doing this right?

also..the links to the articles in my blog 2007escalade.net/escalade/ is not going to the actual page of the article i found. it goes to another page within my blog for comments.

can someone please help me?

thanks

You need to use a Web based RSS aggregator. Does your Web server support either ASP or PHP? If so, do a search on syndicating RSS feeds.

i use RSS Reader...and thanks so much for your reply.

but if i use RSS Reader i still have to manually go into my wordpress and create each article myself.

posting articles is actually something i know how to do but do i need to subscribe to autonews.com per say and have them update my blog daily or weekly using there rss feed?
