This error is now showing up all the time after having recently updated WordPress (now at v4.9.8)
Notice: Undefined index: error in /nas/content/live/epictetus/wp-content/plugins/post-via-dropbox/pvd.php on line 830
Did some troubleshooting but not sure what’s up.

What could be the issue?
]]>For some strange reasons, I am not able to link my Dropbox account anymore. Clicking the link button shows me a white screen of death. Please help. I have to fix this, as I depend on this plugin a lot. Thanks!
]]>Access token not found. (Status Code: 401)
How to fix the issue ? I have try everything without success!
Could you please update the plugin ?
Hi there,
I have notice you plugin is not updated from the last 2 years. I like to ask if still working with wordpress 4.5 latest version.
Please let me know about the future of this plugin because i really use it.
Thanks for your time to respond.
Kind regards
]]>Hi,
Your plugin it’s rocks…
Only one question, how can safe can be since linked my site with dropbox ?
Thank you for your work, I would like also to donate this plugin.

Great plugin, Paolo.
Two issues:
1. How can I use Markdown Extra for parsing my files? I want to use fenced code blocks with class names in my files (https://michelf.ca/projects/php-markdown/extra/#fenced-code-blocks), so Extra is a must.
Your plugin does include the Markdown Extra library (albeit an outdated version), but does not seem to use it. If change “Markdown” to “MarkdownExtra” in lines 524 and 549 of pvd.php the manual check breaks.
Update
I’ve now been able to make it work by including the latest version (1.5.0) of the Markdown Extra library and changing line 524 to require(plugin_dir_path(__FILE__).'Michelf/MarkdownExtra.inc.php'); and line 549 to $content = \Michelf\MarkdownExtra::defaultTransform($content);
Maybe you could update your plugin to include the latest markdown library and add an option to choose between Markdown and Markdown Extra?
2. In simplified posting mode, the post title in WordPress is all lowercase, even though the filename includes with uppercase letters. Example: “This a Sample Post.md” becomes “this is a sample post” in WordPress and “183-this is a sample post.md” in dropbox/Post_via_Dropbox/posted
]]>Very nice plugin!
But I cannot get it to work on my local WAMP (2.5). Am I missing something obvious?
I can link my dropbox account, it creates the folder, but after refresh it says:
“Your Dropbox account is correctly linked ( account: )”
My account name is gone.
Would love to be able to use the plugin locally too.
Thanks in advance

]]>This is similar to the issue in https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/error-not-posted?replies=6
I too am facing issues with certain posts not getting published and throwing the error message ‘Error – not posted’
It’s not about renewing the Dropbox authentication or something. All posts work just fine right now. One or two posts get messed up and don’t get published. I have gone through the full content more than 5 times and they do not have any syntax issues. Clearly the plugin seems to be not accepting some characters.
It would be best if you can bring out updates to this plugin as much as you can, soon. And, do consider putting up a donation page so that we can support your developments.
Thank you.
]]>Hello there,
Your plugin is very nice and unique.
I start using it ,but I face a problem
when editing a post it changes the the category and the author name ,why ?! its not logical to me , it should keep them as default !
Kindly help me with this
Best regards
Ayman
The app had been working just fine till today (June 20, 2015).
30 minutes back or so, the Manual Check stopped working all of a sudden. When I click it, it gives me a blank white page. I am not able to publish any of the posts because of that. Help?
PS : I rely heavily on the Manual Check instead of automatic checking at certain time periods.
]]>Is there a way to include images so they will be uploaded and set as featured image? Or another plugin that can do this? Thanks.
]]>Hi,
I found out about your plugin today and its just what i was looking for, the problem is that i does not work for me.
I linked the dropbox account, and i added some txt files for testing to see if it would make the posts… and it doesnt.
Everything seems to be okay, it links the account and creates de folder inside my dropbox account, but that is all. The weird thing is that my activity list is empty… no errors, no activity nothing.
Another weird thing is that everytime i try to do the manual check, on the status at the top my account name is not shown anymore. I click the Plugin settings link again and it displays the linked account.
So basicly, i thought it might be something with the cron job since i waited and nothing was added to wordpress. I used the manual check, nothing gets updated/added to wordpress, activity list shows no error ( it shows nothing… empty ) and on top the status goes from:
Your Dropbox account is correctly linked ( account: ACCOUNT EMAIL) to Your Dropbox account is correctly linked ( account: ) and nothing happens.
Any thoughts?
]]>I would like to upload several articles to the dropbox folder and have the plugin only post 1 article each time it checks. Is it possible to do that with this plugin? Thanks.
]]>Just tried to activate and link with my dropbox account. On dropbox.com I’m getting the message above.
]]>Basically as the title says, I’ve noticed two things. When attempting to utitlize advanced posting (using the tags), this has never worked for me. You might aim to be specific about location in the file, and what not. You might provide a sample post file.txt that show both the simple posting format and that advanced.
Also, I’ve noticed that when the posts are sent to wordpress to dropbix via this plugin, the title of the post/of the text file is made to be all lowercase. Can you please change this to retain the exact case of the file.txt?
Thanks
]]>Hi,
I had the plugin working very well on 2 x WP 4.0 installs and 1 x WP 3.9.2
Yesterday (08/09/14) Monday 1500CET – I found that the plugin no longer pulled posts in from Dropbox.
I have not updated or upgraded/changed anything.
I’m thinking the common problem is Dropbox and/or how the WP plugin is interacting with Dropbox.
Anyone else having similar problems? or maybe it’s connected to my Dropbox settings.
]]>Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in …../wp-content/plugins/post-via-dropbox/pvd.php on line 24
On a Hostgator server using
Apache version 2.2.26
PHP version 5.4.29
MySQL version 5.5.37-35.1
Thus PHP should be good enough – but no luck. Have tried deactivating other plugins, changed themes even – no luck.

]]>how can I escape tags such as [title] or [/content] ?
I’m trying to review this plugin on my site but
every tag I’m taking as an example .. works just the way it should be
I gave it a try with the `(tick?) character to escape it like in markdown situation .. but didn’t work at all ..
is there any way jot down tags like [title][/title] [date][/date] … as they are when publishing through this plugin?

]]>How about support for multiple blogs and one Dropbox via subfolders in “Post_via_Dropbox”?
Or something similar?
]]>Potentially, it’s a very interesting plugin!! The problem is that it interrupts the text importation when it finds a special character… Letters like í, ó or ? are very common in my language (spanish). So the plugging would not serve me at all … For example, when I write “Me gustaría comer un helado”, the plugin only imports “”Me gustar” and nothing else. Any idea? Thanks!
]]>Hi guys,
My colleagues and I have been working on a workflow system for small magazines that publish in multiple platforms (print, web, digital magazine). Our system is based in Dropbox, so Post via Dropbox works great for pushing content to the web version of the magazine!
We have one request for future versions: updating posts! Technically I have no idea how viable this is, but I’ve seen it done with a similar plugin for Google Docs, which unfortunately hasn’t been updated in 2.5 years: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/docs-to-wordpress/
Ideally, with our system, an editor would be able to make a change to a single copy of an article and push that change to all platforms. For that, PvD would need to be able to update existing posts.
You can read more about our system here: https://tkbr.ccsp.sfu.ca/mpub/2014/04/14/the-flying-narwhal-small-mag-workflow/
Thank you and keep up the great work!
]]>Hi,
I’ve just installed your plugin and I must say it just blows my mind. ?? There’s one question I have: will you support post formats in future versions? That would be great!
Another question: if I use the Jetpack Markdown plugin, should I keep PvD’s MD option turned off to avoid conversion to HTML? It seems to work as expected, but is there any trouble I might run into? Thank you!
Best regards,
F
Hallo, posts are executed (deleted) but not posted.
I receive an error:
time file id
22:54 20/12/2013 /1 post title -3-.txt Error – not posted
Hey there, just wanted to say this is an awesome plugin! Thank you! Been looking for a decent way to do this for a while now.
However, I seem to be having some trouble getting Disqus to load on the post I uploaded with PVD. Disqus seems to be loading fine on older posts pre-PVD, but for my last post, which is posted via PVD, the Disqus interface is completely absent.
Any ideas?
]]>Hi,
Love the idea of the plugin. Tried it first with one article, worked! When I put many articles into my dropbox folder it gave them all the same ID and only entered one article. Overwriting each with the next. So now I have 15 articles in my “posted” folder all with the same ID and only one new article posted in WP. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

]]>Bravo!
What about…
[imgurl] or [thumbnail], [featured]
[sticky]yes/no
[author]
[pubdate]
would be very useful options..
Does it make 2 posts if title and content are repeated in the file?
It should also work if user just change the extension of the xml file to txt right?… in other words, this could become one of easy to use import plugin…
Cheers!
