    Hi, this command line doesnt work for me. I use a wordpress 2.6-Version and a feeddemon 2.7, there might be any changes?

    That used to work before when I used FeedDemon. Not sure about now, I haven’t used the new version yet.

    The only thing it could be is that you have a newly installed wordpress blog and haven’t enabled XML-RPC support in the admin panel.

    thanks universe, it works for me now too, but there seem to be some feeds, that produce empty forms. Probably depends on what kind of feed-standards they use…

    Is there a possibility to edit the title as a link? I want to build a link-page only with Link-Titels to the original source….

    Thanks in advance

    You may need to look at a plugin to do that. (Quick search turned out this one: http://codex.wordpress.org/User:MichaelH/Redirectify)
