Re: From Posterous to Textpattern

that’s it other than adding your txp site to the list of auto posting sites. Maybe I was thinking about it too much, that was kinda easy.

Now to figure out why everything with in the posterous_autopost div that’s written to the new article ignores all changes.

Re: From Posterous to Textpattern

ok gotcha. let’s hope you can figure that out.

i’m in the autopost set up window now and it seems like you can only add the services they have set up already. how did you do a custom set up?

for those who are looking on – posterous has a feature that let’s you specify which sites an article gets autoposted to. so in your email all you do is add the keyword to the textpattern site and it will show up there. so sending textpattern@posterous.com would do that if you set it up to respond to that word (from what i can tell).

Re: From Posterous to Textpattern

From the Manage page in Posterous click Autopost > Add Service > Other Blog > then enter the target of your XML-RPC Server http://mysite.com/rpc/ and the enter your admin username and password for TXP. if it doesn’t kick back with an error you should be golden!

Re: From Posterous to Textpattern

Thank you for the information but there is one big problem; specifying a section.

Can it be done through RPC?

This is the only thing I’ve found but does not work.
@Configure the RPC endpoint URL to post to a specific Textpattern section like this: http://site.com/rpc/index.php#sectionname

Otherwise although the post shows up in the main page, when someone clicks on the permalink to display it as an individual article, gets a 404 error.

Example: http://ciel.attique.gr/
In the first article you get a 404 error.
In the second I manually specified the section through the TXP admin panel so it displays as normal.

Is there a solution to this? Or at least a way to display an article individually without having to specify a section.

Regards,
Chris

Re: From Posterous to Textpattern

that happened to me too. I had to login and add the test i made to a section; there’s got to be better way of doing that.

Re: From Posterous to Textpattern

To what file do I need to add <link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href="http://www.mysite.com/rpc/" />?

I’m confused, as both files in Textpattern’s rpc folder are php.

Re: From Posterous to Textpattern

Anyone ever figured out how to get these auto post articles to be put into a section, if nothing else the default section?

I finally found a way to do that. I edited the file TXP_RPCServer.php in txp’s rpc folder. In line 673, edit the code to match this:

$contents['Section'] = nameofsection;

Re: From Posterous to Textpattern

This could be a (sub-) feature request for future Textpattern versions:

Admin / prefs / advanced: ‘Set default section for XML-RPC server for incoming articles: [section name]’
