Briller Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Hi , i haven't dealt much with php professionally , just some minor changes to code im my wordpress,.and i need some help with wordpress . im a 3d artist and ive managed to work up a script in Maya (3d software) that sends an email to my wordpress using (sendEmail) and posts certain objects to my blog. Using postie i can publish it on my blog. however ,should i want other folks to use this, i cannot identify users this way so i changed my script to use each users email, smtp , email password. while its working ok , some clear disadvantages remain. no one would want to put their main email password im sure even though its not getting saved anywhere so leading to my question : Is there a way i can post to wordpress using the DOS command line .(using open source modules like sendEmail but for get/post methods). i want to set a simple command containg the username , password, message , attachments and the target catagory/subcatagory to post to. can anyone explain how would this be possible to create? would i need to go through a web browser for this ? do i need any modules? please help. i really want to get this done , this is the only thing blocking me from releasing this website and script to the wolrd and opening up a new community... thanks in advance,.

trq Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Sorry, but it's not exactly clear what the issue is. DOS? PHP won't even install on DOS.

Briller Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 ok , ill try to make it clearer. i need to call out to a module or app, that will parse the information i need to post to wordpress. to call out that module, i want to use the command line. its possible to use an external software (open sourced) . an ideal solution would be : 1. go to cmd > 2.type> externalMoudlue.exe -username -password -my message - my attachments -targetCategory and that would take care of the posting for me. hope i manged to clear things up . and hope there might be something out there that can do this. :-\ B Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/243380-post-from-an-external-scriptcmdline-to-wordpress-help-figuring-this-out/#findComment-1249802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
