xxxhoop,
Please note that we emailed all GrabPress publishers prior to the 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 releases, to inform users that we would no longer be supporting the Autoposter feature. The information we sent to our registered publishers has also been posted to the support forums here for your reference:

1. Note that if you were registered as a Grab Media publisher, then all your feeds were migrated to standard video feeds prior to the 3.0 release. All you have to do is link your 3.0+ GrabPress installation to your Grab Media account, and all your video feeds should be populated into the video feeds area.
If you inadvertently deleted your video feeds, then there isn’t much we can do to help you recover them. However, in GrabPress 3.0+, the feed creation process is much easier, due to the elimination of all the former Autoposter ‘post settings’ requirements. Therefore, setting up your video feeds should be much easier and quicker going forward, since all it requires is video search criteria (keywords, categories, content providers).
Though old versions of Autoposter/GrabPress already had features to prevent replication of video posts within the same video category (we allowed it if they were published to different WordPress categories), that should not be NOT be an issue in GrabPress 3.0+ going forward, since users are expected to manually select, edit and publish their video posts before they go live.
2. Since we are no longer able to automatically post videos to your site remotely (Autoposter) in the newer versions GrabPress, there is no need to select a WordPress ‘post category’ anymore, since you will automatically be taken to the post editor when you select a video to post. Once you click the ‘create post’ button, you are taken to your post editor in your WordPress admin, where you select the post category in the right hand side of your UI.
3. If the Video Feeds > Manage Feeds section of your GrabPress plugin is loading empty feeds, please send us your username and the URL for your site, and the feed names, so we can look into this for you. Without that information, we’re unable to research the issue you describe.
Thanks for using GrabPress. We hope that resolves items #1 and #2 above. We’ll wait for you to send us more information about #3 above (you can post it here, or send it to support@grab-media.com, and reference this support link in the email).
