This feature is used with BlogSense’s auto bookmarking features.
Backdating is a post scheduling setting that will publish items retrospectivly until a campaign is halted.
Specifically backdating with BlogSense works like this:
1. A campaign based on a content source is specified.
2. Post scheduling is set as ‘backdating’.
3. As BlogSense runs, all content is posted retrospectively starting at current date going back into past dates. As BlogSense continues to run and new content is discovered, the new content begins being published right before the furthest back date of the last item published. This patten continues until the campaign is paused, runs out of material, or it’s scheduling setting is reset/and/or/changed.
BlogSense allows you to backdate your content. When backdating, all material found on an RSS feed or on a Scraped Source is posted in reverse, posting 1 per day, going backwards from the current day until all the material has been published.

It’s been about a week since the release of 4.0.beta, and we’ve worked together and weeded out a couple of small bugs, as well as added some new features. Lets take a look:
ADDRESSED FEATURE REQUESTS
Regex Search & Replace functions for Sources Module
Before when working with the Sources module, advanced setting were available that allowed you to alter the scrape parameters for the selected source, and add a list of search and replace commands on top of the content you discovered. We took the ladder(String Searching and Replacement commands) and changed it to Regex Search and Replace commands, so you now have the capability to perform even more complex content manipulations on your content. I’ll admit, regex(regular expression) commands are complicated. But sometimes they are the only solution to cleaning out unwanted elements in your scraped content.
A PDF on how to work with regex has been included/embedded in the relevant areas. Just as before, you will have the option to add search and replace functions directly within the article search’s advanced setting’s section, or you can add them permanently by going into your source management section and altering the parameters there.
And note:… if you have a question on how to write the regex code that will do exactly what you need… take it to StackOverflow : D . Really! they’ll know exactly what commands to run to achieve your desired results.
IndexSpy 1.0 becomes IndexSpy 1.5
IndexSpy was never really meant to rest as is. Organizing data like that screams to have advanced functionality developed into it, and thats just what we have done.
You can now select pages, individually or sporadically, and export them as rss feeds. For Example: 20 pages indexed, 5 pages unindexed. Sort pages by index result, manually select the 5 unindexed articles, and export as rss. You now have a customized rss feed for rss submission.
SEO Keywords Profiles provides the user with a entire new section and settings. What this feature sets out to accomplish is the creation of keyword profiles that allow you to add special settings to instances of that keyword when it is found in an incoming article, such as text decorations (bold, italics, strong, underline) and url linking (including class and rel tag declarations). You can also set limits on how many times per article(post) you want BlogSense to apply these conditions to.
Now you can turn PDF material into wordpress posts with BlogSense.
BlogSense uses the Drop Posting Module to import a PDF’s content. Then you define how many posts you would like to create and define the titles of the posts, and then define which page ranges that will become a post’s content.
Press preview to preview what your posts will come out like, and then go ahead and import them.
BlogSense will slice them up how you described and get them ready for you to schedule using the Drop Posting Module.
I know thats kind of tough to follow! Here is a video demonstration
The newest feature addition in BlogSense-WP 3.1 is content scraping. You can use this to get full content from partial rss feeds.
A partial rss feed is an rss feed that only displays a summary of the content, and then prompts you to view the full content.
The Content Scraping feature will use scripting techniques to access the original articles, and then use predefined code tags to find out where the full content is located and then copy and add it to the post.
BlogSense allows for auto sourcing and embedding of video content from multiple video websites including Youtube.com and Hulu.com
YouTube
BlogSense will the RSS service provided by http://www.referd.info/ to create feeds based on search terms. Blogsense will move through those feeds grabbing videos and video descriptions, as well as up to the 500 most recent comments. Comments are scheduled to appear 1 per day forever after the post goes live, until all the comments have been posted.
This is to keep posts active and search engine spiders coming back. Automatic comment posting will also help “prime the pump” for live-visitor participation and discussion.
Hulu
RSS is used all throughout Hulu.com’s content infrastructure, and allows users to create very specific feeds for the shows they are wanting to target. These feeds can contain collections of entire seasons, or can reflect a personal playlist created by the user.
BlogSense uses these feeds to source and auto-embed video, as well as provide descriptions and icons related to each video. Auto-commenting is not available for Hulu films yet.
