Try reading as you may find a solution there www.blogcatalog.com/help/
(1) Is your feed valid? validator.w3.org/feed/
(2) Is the BC autodiscovery tag in your blog on the page for pingbacks?
BlogCatalog will typically crawl an approved blog every 24 hours. If you would like to update your recent posts sooner you can use the Feed Management tool located in the Manage section.
You can also use BlogCatalog's XML-RPC interface to automatically ping BlogCatalog from within your weblog software. Simply add rpc.blogcatalog.com/ into your weblog software's configuration for Pings and Notifications.
(3) Do the urls for your posts include date/timestamps? BC will not pick them up unless they have dates.
(4) Are you clicking:
"Manage Blogs"
then clicking the little "Manage" rectangle on the screenshot of the blog;
then clicking the "Recent Posts" tab;
and then clicking "Update the My Recent Posts button"?
BlogCatalog uses Autodiscovery www.petefreitag.com/item/384.cfm to determine your Blog's RSS Feed and crawl your site for recent posts. If your autodiscovery tags are not properly set up, or your feed is invalid, your most recent posts will not show up on your blog listing.
Common Issues:
Check your autodiscovery tags. If your autodiscovery tags are missing, pointing to a dead URL, or redirecting improperly, BlogCatalog will not be able to index your feed.
If using FeedBurner, make sure you have the 'Event Feed' setting disabled. We will only index feeds that are in reverse chronological order.
If using Blogger/BlogSpot, make sure your site feed redirection settings are set up properly. If you are not using a third-party service to process your feed make sure the 'Post Feed Redirect URL' field is left blank.
For best results, make sure your feed is output in either RSS 2.0 or Atom 1.0 format.
I hope this helps.

(1) Please remove the caps lock function. Typing in all capital letters in cyberspace is considered to be the rude equivalent of SHOUTING! into the faces of others. Use capital letters on the first letter of each words and for proper nouns only.
(2) Recent post not updating - Try reading here as you may find instructions www.blogcatalog.com/help/
Why aren't my recent posting showing up on my blog listing?

hi, my feed can't be updated by BC, too, although it has a valid feed.
i'm using WP engine. here's my url: ghufron.com ghufron.com/feed (feed url)-
Please check your autodiscovery tags and be sure the urls contain time/date stamps. If both of those are okay the please use the contact link information and let Admin know you have a problem www.blogcatalog.com/contact/
