I built a free WordPress plugin to solve my content discovery problem - here's what it does
Context: I run a PHP programming blog. Content discovery was taking 2-3 hours daily. I wanted something that lived inside WordPress, pulled from trusted sources, and gave me drafts to work from - not auto-published garbage.
So I built RSS Content Curator and published it on WordPress.org.
What it does:
• Pulls from 24+ curated RSS feeds across 7 categories (Technology, Business, Science, Health, Sports, Entertainment, General News)
• Lets you add custom keywords to target specific topics via Google News
• Rewrites content for uniqueness before saving
• Adds source attribution to every generated post
• Saves EVERYTHING as drafts - you review before anything goes live
• Generates SEO meta descriptions automatically
• Auto-skips code-heavy articles (important for dev blogs)
• Zero API keys, zero external accounts required
The Technology category alone includes TechCrunch, The Verge, Wired, PHP.net, Laravel News, Dev.to, CSS-Tricks, and Smashing Magazine.
What's coming next:
• Scheduled auto-generation
• 19 language support
• Custom RSS feed import
• Duplicate detection
• PRO version launching soon
Free on WordPress.org right now.

Happy to answer any questions about how it works or the development process.
