I was checking out the Extreme John blog, like I do every day and came across an awesome post called 25 WordPress Plugins you might dig . One of the 25 that he mentioned really caught my attention and I decided to install it and give it a whirl. After playing around with it, I am convinced that this plugin will save me a ton of time and make my blogging life much easier.
The plugin is called Instant Weekly Roundup . Many of the blogs I visit do some sort a roundup, whether it is weekly or monthly or a best of series. Having written several of these posts before I know first hand how labor intensive this can be. I was actually preparing to write a 200th post best of series and was dreading it because of how much time it was going to take. My whole outlook has changed since I started playing around with this plugin.
This plugin is so simple to use and with a few mouse clicks you can have your post completed.
Take a look at the screenshot below:
It is basically a three step process:
1.Enter in the date range
2.Enter in your header text and footer text
3.Click the box next to the posts that you want included.
That’s it, from there you copy and paste the generated code and click publish and you are good to go.
You can look for me to be writing much more round up posts from here on out.
What do you guys think ? I am curious to hear your comments…
Do you do roundup posts on your blog? If so, are you using any sort of plugin or doing it all by hand?
Nice post. I've learn something more challenging on different blogs everyday. It will always be stimulating to read content from other writers and practice a little something from them.
Yes, this plugin helps a lot.
Thx

Otherwise, you might get lost along the way. So starting a blog and just blogging for a little while will help you with this. You can blog about anything that you want to.

It’s a nice plugin and I can understand why one would use it.
Personally, I enjoy the time spent with my roundups, maybe I will try this at a latter stage.
