It is not a zip file though. I just have the php file in a folder that you just drop into the plugins directory. As for the_content... check this out: http://www.devlounge.net/code/wordpress-plugin-filters It sums up the filters nicely. As soon as you activate the plugin the content changes to your liking. Deactivate the plugin and the content goes back to the original in the post. Yes it is an actuall plugin that gets activated/deactivated. It is not a zip file though.

I had thoughts about starting an affiliate program around the plugins once I get all the bugs worked out and it is more stable. The nice thing is that I can change my plugin at anytime and switch from EPN to Amazon if I want. After editing the plugin every page on my site would be switched over and realted to the title of the post. I do run a check against the title before doing a new post to make sure that title does not already exist. So no duplicate titles should ever happen. Right now the plugin uses XMLRPC to do the posts. But I am thinking if I do a little digging I can do it internal to wordpress and not have to go out and back through as a remote post. Nope nothing is hard coded into any of the pages. I think it was called a filter on the content. When worpress calls for the content of the post it runs my code first and then returns whatever I tell it to. Thanks man!

And, you are running using wp-cron and not the system crontab. I'm interested in seeing how you accomplish the task of adding the auctions to the blank post. Do you have an include of something hard coded in to single.php? I totally am digging this new method. The chance to duplicate content is low and you can also even add in more affiliate options by using the title. Great work! Genius… this in my opinion is better than even A2P.
