    We’re looking to update an EE site with entries from a partner’s WordPress site. This content will continue to be updated daily for the foreseeable future. We hope this can be automated without too much complicated programming.

    Any advice on the best approach to accomplish this? So far, the most intriguing option has been the “Datagrab” module for EE2.

    Any better ideas out there? Thanks.

    The Datagrab module is a good choice.  If you are decent with PHP then you can import entries using the channel entries API.
