Do you manually publish your articles through Microsoft Start Partner Hub (MSPH)?

We are looking to gather feedback from those of you that are manually publishing your articles vs using the WordPress Plug-in or connecting your RSS feed. If this is you, please send me your email to set up a quick chat 🙂 We are working hard to make publishing as easy and seamless as possible, and your feedback will help us tremendously!

I manually post. If you still need to talk, let me know.

FYI I had 2 posts rejected multiple times for broken hyper links after trying to publish via the plug-in. I took the exact copy that was rejected with NO additional changes and posted them manually and they both published with no problem. Does your algoruthm read the posts differently depending on how they are posted? I think the one that reads copy that comes through the plug-in is either too strict or glitchy.

@Piper manually publishing

Terrance Pryor

I'm forced to manually post articles because it stopped reading my RSS feed last week.

I do a combination -- if I'm reposting an article again because it was popular the first time, then I will manually do it. I have been having a lot of issues lately, however, with manual "republish" articles not getting out of review, however.

Cyndie Norell

I am manually posting some of my articles.

Marilyn Johnson

I'm doing both. I manually publish additional articles that don't belong on my site.

I am using the Wordpress plugin as it saves time and is more efficient for me. I would love if there were more features in the plugin to categorize content.

Hi @eileen, that's great feedback! I'll take note of this and pass it along. I've also escalated both of your emails about your posts being rejected 3 times to Partner Hub Support so they should be getting back to you about why the posts published via the plug-in are getting stuck in review.

Thanks Jake. Just to clarify, they aren't getting stuck in review. they're being rejected.

Yesterday I tried using the plugin with a new post as I published. It was immediately rejected. I deleted it and tried to use the plugin to repost and now the plugin will not repost.

I didn't like the plug-in, it was clunky and with all the issues technical MSN has had I worried about how secure the plug-in is. The IT department does not inspire.

I've been posting manually since the initial test with the plug-in and RSS feed and feel I have more control and can create a better post doing it manually and it only takes about 10 minutes.

Jessica Williams

I'm publishing via the plugin as well.

I do a combination - use the plugin and manual. Many of my popular pages are category pages, not posts, so they have to be done manually.
