Automatic posting of data in my blog

  • Hi,

    I’m wondering how difficult it will be to write a plugin/script that will automatically create posts for me.
    I have a java code that stores in mydatabase which are latest news. I’m thinking of using WordPress to “blog” my latest information. Currently, I would have to manually copy and paste to wordpress using the wp-admin to post. I want to automate

    I haven’t run into any scripts or plugins that will do automated posting. How hard will it be to hack/modify wordpress to do what I’m asking here?

    Programming for me is a problem as I’m a junior traniee programmer. The real issue is how much of the core wordpress code will I have to hack? It doesn’t seem like this can be done as a plugin.

    Thanks!

  • I haven’t seen a plugin that does exactly that yet, however you can setup your blog to do posts via email and whatever email is sent to the special address with the correct username and password would be added as a post.

    This is under options -> Writing…

    Also there are a ton of RSS plugins that are designed to put news on sidebars , in posts etc. If your latest news was in XML/RSS format that would be easy to deal with from a wordpress and blog standpoint. It your NEWS is propritary and you arent a programmer is just going to be time consuming.

    cheers
