Quickly Blogging Link Articles

  • Unknown's avatar

    I think you should allow quick blogging of internet articles, just like Facebook does where if you put a link, an automatic preview of the first paragraph is generated along with a picture, and will also allow the blogger to put in some words of his own if he wants to. This will help generate more viewership for WordPress as a blog can also be a trove of related articles as per the blog topic.

    The current way of blogging such things right now wherein you have to manually copy, paste and edit the links are time consuming and tedious, and not conducive for people to post more. Anyway, just a suggestion, I hope you incorporate it.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Thanks, timethief, but what you posted actually isn’t what I am looking for. What you are showing is sharing my WordPress blog to the outside world, but what I am actually looking for is the opposite, and that is sharing outside links into my posts quickly.

    Again, I am looking for something like how Facebook or Google+ does it wherein you post a link, and then an automatic preview of the first paragraph and pictures appear and also allows the user to make comments if necessary.

    Blogs that violate our advertising policy or fall into one of the following categories are not allowed on WordPress.com:

    Scraper blogs: Blogs that take content from other blogs and re-publish it without permission (this is sometimes called scraping). If a blog contains stolen content, it’s gone!

    Automated blogs: Blogs that are generated by computers, including randomly generated blogs, blogs that re-publish press releases, marketing material, search engine results, link dumps or any other mass-produced content.

    The blog that I am talking about is phldefensenews.wordpress.com.

    And no, it will not be a “Scraper” or “Automated” blog. Are you familiar with Facebook’s PAGES? If so, I was hoping to create something like it using WordPress. If not, maybe I can help explain it to you.
