Hi Everyone,
I do a little modification. Now I can handle tags, too! I don't know if I made these chances on the correct files, but it working now! Just in case these are my diff:

Hi Wildduck (I think you've fixed your problem) Well done.

It seems you're using the XMLRPC function to add a blog (Atleast someone worked it out). Could you please provide me with a few hints as to how I can do this? I didnt consider actually just using the functions, I was looking for an actual RPC method to do post inserts.

Please show me a more clean version if you have the time.

Thanks!

Hi Adam,
This is my little test. I hope this can help you!

<?php
include("xmlrpc.inc");

    $ee_api_path = "http://www.yoursite.com/blogs/xmlsrv/xmlrpc.php";
    $ee_username = "nickname";
    $ee_password = "password";

    $c = new xmlrpc_client($ee_api_path);
    $c->debug = true;


    $content['title'] = "This is an auto-post";
    $content['description'] = "This is the breaf<!--more-->More text with rendering objects [video:youtube:youtubeid]";
    $content['categories'] = array("Category I", "Category II");
    $content['tags'] = "tag1,tag2,tag3";

    $x = new xmlrpcmsg("metaWeblog.newPost",
        array(php_xmlrpc_encode("2"),
        php_xmlrpc_encode($ee_username),
        php_xmlrpc_encode($ee_password),
        php_xmlrpc_encode($content),
        php_xmlrpc_encode(true)));
    $c->return_type = 'phpvals';
    $r = $c->send($x);

    if ($r->errno == "0") {
        echo "Successfully Posted";
    } else {
        echo "There are some error";
        print_r($r);
    }
?>

Oh man... THANK YOU SO MUCH!

My cURL way of doing things was so wrong. MUCH THANKS!

Have fun with your future projects!

I hope this can help you a lot! :lol:

Hi,

Your code doesn't seem to work for me. I am trying to make a blog post via XMLRPC.

My blog is at: http://my.domain.name/blog6.php
while the xmlrpc api is at: http://my.domain.name/xmlsrv/xmlrpc.php

How do I configure your code to work for me?

Your time and help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
