After the sudden upgrade, it was very difficult (nearly impossible) to make new posts. The browser was freezing. There was 1000s of “custom fields” on the page which was taking long time to load and in turn was making the window unusable.

I started searching on web for the possible solutions but was not able to get any concrete one. The problem was there even after upgrading it to 2.8.6. I was however able to make the post by forcing the window to stop page download in between.

I was finally able to solve the problem. I am sure it is not the correct way of doing it but I am now able to make the posts without any problem.

If you have a similar type of problem then:

Lookout for this line “add_meta_box(’postcustom’, __(’Custom Fields’), ‘post_custom_meta_box’, ‘post’, ‘normal’, ‘core’);” in “edit-form-advanced.php” which will be there in wp-admin folder.

Comment this line like below:

//add_meta_box(’postcustom’, __(’Custom Fields’), ‘post_custom_meta_box’, ‘post’, ‘normal’, ‘core’);

Upload the file to the server.

This is going to solve the problem temporarily. However, you would not be able to see “custom fields”.

If anybody has any better solutions then do let me know.

Other advantages associated with automated blogging include the fact that bloggers can start up as many topics as they want and they never have to update them. They get to create target blogs without writing any content. Many bloggers like the system because it generates them traffic and therefore income while they engage in other activities. Automated blogging also builds blog pages PageRank as the pages always have updated content.

Automated blogging also has several drawbacks, the most common one being that the blog page does not get unique content. Auto blogging takes content from other sites and therefore completely eliminates the chance of originality and creativity. However, the system allows bloggers to edit the content and try to make their blogs unique. Based on the number of blogs that have been updated, this task may be just as daunting as creating original content from scratch. This therefore means that readers will not be attracted to the blogs and they will not leave comments or attract subscriptions.

Another drawback associated with automated blogging is useless content. Since the content is updated based on some keywords provided, the content actually uploaded on the blog pages may be completely irrelevant to what readers are looking for and will therefore not help them in any way. Another disadvantage of using automated blogging systems is that bloggers run a risk of infringing copyright when RSS feeds do not have permission to copy content. This can cause legal repercussions. Most bloggers are banned from advertisement networks when they are found to be copying content from other pages. This causes them to lose revenue and also a chance of losing their hosting.

In addition to that, it creates a bad reputation for the blogger when other bloggers shame their actions on the internet and therefore make work for them very difficult. Google also identifies blogs that contain duplicate content and ensures that they are not recognized. This means that they will never appear on search results and therefore will get very little exposure to visitors. Although some people have had positive responses from using automated blogging, search engines are not very particular about them as they require bloggers to offer content that will help readers and give them what they are looking for to solve their problems.
