Is there a way to dynamically assign a post to an existing category? We have a site that aggregates posts from several RSS feeds. We would like to have those posts automatically assigned to one of the categories that we set up by matching keywords within the post. I thought there may be a plugin that does this but can’t find one.

thanks

    Hi Ron, if you can’t find a plugin that does this already, you might have to write your own. It wouldn’t be too hard to add a hook into WP to update the category automatically when the post is saved.
