Two plugins, fully compliant with WordPress 2.8:
1. One plugin that I can use to manually query YouTube with a specific query and obtain specific user-chosen number returns within the WordPress administrative area (in other words, I want to be able to enter a query and tell the plugin to return only X number of videos). Each return can then be previewed and checked to be embedded as separate posts to the WordPress site. Prior to final posting, I should be able to choose a title for the WordPress post, category or categories, and appropriate tags. This plugin should be able to used over and over manually whenever I want without disturbing those videos already posted and embedded.
2. One plugin (which can be the same plugin or a different one) that I can use to manually query Ezinearticles.com, ArticlesBase.com and ArticleDashboard.com (or any combination of those directories, chosen through options on the administrative panel at the time the plugin is run) with a specific query and obtain specific user-chosen number returns within the WordPress administrative area (in other words, I want to be able to enter a query and tell the plugin to return only X number of articles). Each return can then be previewed and checked to be embedded as separate posts to the WordPress site. Prior to final posting, I should be able to choose a category or categories, and appropriate tags. This plugin must insert the chosen articles in a format that is consistent with the WordPress site’s CSS as well as the “ezine ready” version provided by the site for syndication purposes. This plugin should be able to used over and over manually whenever I want without disturbing those articles already posted and embedded.
