<p>From the plugin admin screen you can create rules by specifying a key word or phrase along with an existing<br />
WordPress category. Th plugin then scans post titles for the key, and adds the specified categories as appropriate.<br />
By default the plugin will automatically check newly created posts when a page is loaded, however this can be set to manual via a button in the admin screen.</p>
<p>I can’t guarantee any support, but if you use the support forum I will do my best to help you with any issues.<br />
Feel free to suggest improvements too.</p>
