NewsPilot – Automatic News Aggregator & Script
NewsPilot is a PHP news-portal script built on the CodeIgniter framework with a MySQL database. It lets you run a complete, constantly updated news website without writing every story yourself: set up your sources once, and the script pulls in fresh stories on a schedule, while still giving you full control to publish and curate your own articles.
Build a News Portal That Updates Itself
Instead of chasing headlines all day, NewsPilot works on autopilot. Add RSS or ATOM feeds from the publications you follow, choose when each source should be checked, and let cron jobs fetch new items automatically. The result is a lively homepage with new stories appearing regularly, organized into the sections your readers expect.

Customization and Monetization
