Can Get Post By Email To Work

  • HI guys, I have tried everything I can think of to make post via email to work. I have followed the instructions at https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Blog_by_Email for both the automatic as well as manual process.

    Does anyone have any experience of this feature and any common mistakes?

    Can someone clarify the php entry in the footer. I have entered the code thus:

    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/right_sidebar.php’); ?>
    <iframe src=”https://yourblogdomain/wordpressinstalldir/wp-mail.php&#8221; name=”mailiframe” width=”0″ height=”0″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no” title=””></iframe>
    <?php wp_footer(); ?>

    and have html below that but it dont work.

    Ive checked and my emails are on my server but not being grabbed.

    Any help please?

    Thanks

    No message contents: I found this is solved by ensuring that you do not mail in html format. You can send html but it is sent in standard text format. You can add
    to the end of paragraphs and also use text link code such as:
    <p>Electronic Music Library: Royalty-free chilled electronic music.</p>

    But I have not found how to add an image link as yet. I recall this could not be done in the past but itw worth checking again to see if this can be achieved now.

    Good luck!

    This was a great tutorial…thank you…it’s amazing…it works perfectly on one site and then would not work for the life of me on the other site… my login is just the username, not username@domain….

    hope that helps…

    and if you run the wp-mail.php page and get info that it’s been received and 1 deleted, then check your posts and make sure they’re just not being loaded in a pending status…best of luck to everyone…now let’s figure out how to get pictures in it… =)

    I am having the same problem with 2.7.1. It doesn’t appear to be doing anything. I don’t even know if I have a code error .. it just not doing anything. I just want it to work. I have postmaster and even that’s is not working with it.

    I’d be real careful about setting everything to publish. Instead set up a user as author that will post for you. I had problems with this but found out it was because I was trying to text my post in to the email account I set up for posting from. I found a helpful explanation here https://sinacism.com/2009/04/18/texting-to-post-now-works/
