Posting to Wordpress from Email.

[rock-reed]

Hi guys,

I have successfully setup posting to Wordpress from regular e-mail.

But it only seems to do basic text.

How can I send a picture attachment from my iPhone by e-mail and have it automatically post to Wordpress?


Thanks guys and gals.

I thought image attachments are automatically included as thumbnails and multiple images will be turned into a post gallery with email posting. What happens when you try it?

Seems like using xmlrpc.php from wordpress.org fixed their problem

A bit of subject, but if you have a Android phone or tablet, download the free wp app.

I just want it to be super easy and super seemless from any phone... I want people just to send a simple e-mail with a photo and have wordpress post it.

Thanks for the info above guys, I am checking this all out now.

Without an app, right?

Yes... no app at all.

I just want to send an e-mail to a special address and have Wordpress post ... including the photo attachment.


Any ideas?

I don't think you guys are fully understanding... Creating a post with an APP is no problem.... you can add content/ pics/links...whatever.

I want anyone to be able to send an e-mail to a random email and then have it post that to Wordpress...including the photo.

Wordpress Already has this option built in... post by email (general/settings/writing)

But it only posts the text of the e-mail... NOT THE PHOTO Attached.

Anyone?

Thanks for the help.

Some people can fix this problem by emailing their post in text only mode. Have you tried that?

[devilspost]

did you try to use the wordpress plugin "postie"?

Is your wp-content/uploads folder set to be writable?

Edit your email in html not plain text, I just sent image with hotmail and it worked. Before I did that any email to post I sent with an image wouldn't post at all though so not the same problem you are having.
