Currently it has been built only to work with Groups and still needs some work but thought I'd post up what I've done so far
TODO
Set up cron hook
Set up Edit form
Set up Delete action
Set and Check over Permission settings
Extra
Add in various user settings/options
Tidy up Code
Tidy up Views/menu items
Alter to work for Users as well as Groups
Prerequisites (you need to install and enable these plugins to get it to work)
http://community.elgg.org/pg/plugins/antifm/read/230708/blogextended-132 (attaching to group must be enabled)
http://community.elgg.org/pg/plugins/costelloc/read/37480/simplepie-feed-integrator
Group plugin (comes with core)
Check out my trackback plugin if anyone is interested in the above. It doesn't create blog entries but does accept the trackback and pushes it to the activity river. It could server as the basis for that capability: http:/

Hi - really like the plug in - just what I have been putting off making a start on for ages :-)
Unfortunatly I am having a problem with it.
I have installed a fresh copy of elgg 1.5, and added and enabled the plugins mentioned above. With the plugins enabled by default and those installed, I have the following modules enabled in this order:
diagnostics
blog
groups
logbrowser
uservalidationbyemail
profile
simplepie
blogextendedEXcats
When I enable the simplepiegroupplugin plugin, I get a blank page. If I use the browsers back button, I get the Tools Administration page, and a notification to say the plugin has been enabled.
My Apache error log shows:
==> /var/log/apache2/elgg15.robertson.net.nz.error.log <==

I get pretty much the same with every url that includes /action.
Has anyone else run into this?

Hi - solved problem above - not *quite* sure ...
I found a post about a similar problem that suggested it was something to do with the files encoding. I tried saving the start.php file as utf-8 and with Unix line endings, but this did not work, so I renamed it, created a new start.php file and copied the contents of the original file into the new file, and it fixed the problem.
I am using Kubuntu Linux, btw.

I hope, as alternative solution to cron-based updates, you can implement accepting "pings" from imported feeds (if feed generated by blog, which support pingbacks)
