Broadcast Automatically

    Firstly, this plugin looks awesome!

    Secondly, is it possible to automatically broadcast new custom post types to the other website(s)? Rather than having to tick the boxes.

    I want to deploy this on ‘child’ websites that, when a new custom post type is published, will broadcast the content to the main ‘parent’ website, but without anyone needing access to the backend of the child sites.

    Is that possible?

    How do you plan to publish those new posts? Using some plugin?

    At any rate, to broadcast programmatically you’ll need some custom code that hooks into the “new post created” action from that post creation plugin, and then feed the post ID to the Broadcast API. See the BC api docs here: https://broadcast.plainviewplugins.com/doc/developer-api/

    Using a theme with a front end submission form. It will be a directory site, so custom post types could be ‘restaurants’ or ‘homes’.

    So I guess it’s do-able with a little coding then? Would you be hireable to do the coding? Not an immediate project by the way.

    I can’t help writing the whole custom code from scratch, but I’m available to give tips on how to solve Broadcast-related coding problems, if your webdev has any questions. Just e-mail away!
