Posting to site with email automatically

  • I’m a total non-coder and have been cutting my teeth on WordPress. I need help from someone who’s really good at this (and who can dummy it down for me). I want to post to by blog via email. Got it all set up. BUT…I don’t want to have to go to wp-mail.php myself every time to get the emails to post. Can someone help me with getting it set up so that the posts go straight to the blog when the emails are received?
    URL is

    Thanks!

  • You can set up a cron job to “get” that URI every so often. Talk to your host about the availibility of cron jobs on your server.
    Sometimes they have a nice friendly way of setting it up in your control panel, otherwise you need to telnet or ssh in and set it up that way.

    i read this somewhere on this forum. load that file with the blog itself. so anyuser who visits the blog would trigger it and the post would be posted. ??

    That would work…can anyone point me to that forum or help me with the code that would do that? PLEASE???

    Just put a PHP include to call the file. But is this a very good way. This can mean a lot of stress on the server if you have a large number of visitors.
