Still can’t figure out what the value of the cookie is…

Ok, playing around so far i’ve found that the cookie name is a md5() of the site url.

EG: md5(‘https://www.example.com’);

I found this, but what does double hash mean??

When you log into WordPress from https://example.com/wp-login.php, WordPress stores the following two cookies:

Your user name
A double-hashed copy of your password

Nevermind, I included /var/www/wordpress/wp-includes/class-phpass.php and just used PasswordHash(). Code below for those interested.

require('/var/www/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php');
require('/var/www/wordpress/wp-includes/pluggable.php');
require('/var/www/wordpress/wp-includes/class-phpass.php');

$wp_hasher = new PasswordHash(8, TRUE);
    $password = $wp_hasher->HashPassword($_POST[pass2]);

Haha i’m an idiot….

<script language=’text/javascript’>
should be
<script type=’text/javascript’>

Specifically the part labeled “Access new tables in the WP DB”

This page helped me. Even though the table is in the wordpress database it’s not a part of wordpress so you have to make a new instance of $wpdb.

Cool, it works, thanks!

Never mind, i figured it out

So i’m just going to use add_post_meta, it works.

I have the same problem, how does post meta work?

Ok yeah, i’ve been messing with it and I can’t figure it out. Is there any way I can echo out the SQL that is being ran?

Ok it’s not working.

I made a new column in wp_posts called post_location.

$my_post = array(
       		'post_title' => $_POST['Title'],
       		'post_content' => $_POST['Message'],
		'post_status' => $my_post_type,
       		'post_author' => $user_id,
       		'post_category' => $category,
       	        'comment_status' => (($enableComments && !$use_anonComment)  ? 'open' : 'closed'),
       		'ping_status' => 'closed',
		'post_location' => 'isitposting'
       	);

When i use this array with wp_insert_post it inserts everything in the array except post_location. Why?

Never mind, found this.

The user can provide more elements than are listed here by simply defining new keys in the database. The keys should match the names of the columns in the wp_posts table in the database.

sorry i posted this in the wrong forum and am not sure how to delete it
