Wordpress auto post to Simple Machine Forum

timlisten123 · July 14, 2011, 11:03:48 AM

Hi,

Is there a package or way for me to post automatically to my simple machine forum every time I make a post in my blogs. I have a couple of blogs, and every time I post a new entry, I want them to appear on the forum using different accounts. If I can provide an rss feed and the package will read and scrape the title and the whole body of my blog entry and post it on the forum, that will be nice. There is a package called RSS Feed Poster that does what I need, however, it only show the first 200 characters, I need the whole article to be posted in my forum.
Thanks.

thanks, but is there a way to do it on the SMF side because all my wordpress blogs are located on different servers than the SMF.

You want to integrate SMF into multiple Wordpress blogs?

timlisten123 · July 14, 2011, 12:29:06 PM

No, I don't want to integrate it to any blog. I want my SMF forum to read the feed of my blog entries and post the full article to the forum. It doesn't have to be real time.

check the mod site for an rss reader mod

RSS Feeder (NOT RSS Feed Poster) allows you to capture a whole article from an RSS feed.

I'm getting the following error when I tried to install the "RSS Feeder". I'm using the latest version of SMF. Is there a way to get around it?

The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

Please see the support topic for that mod... you'll have to use the 'Advanced' link at the bottom of the package manager to Emulate an earlier version of SMF.

Hey, that works. Now I have a new problem
Regular Expression
Required if retrieving full article. This must be PCRE format. The match is expected to be in second index of the array ([1]).

I don't understand what I need to write. I checked the support for that MOD, and didn't find anything about it.

Please clarify, what error are you receiving. Put the error inside Code tags, or at least put " " around them.

timlisten123 · July 14, 2011, 02:01:59 PM

I don't have any error, it is one of the require fields that I needed to fill in in order to add a new feed.
I just put *, and it allows me to pass, but not sure if that's the right thing to do.

There is a link in the very first post to a small tutorial on how to use that field.

timlisten123 · July 14, 2011, 02:51:40 PM

Where is it? I don't see it.

thanks. I thought that was a tab and since it was highlighted, I thought I was already on that page.

timlisten123 · July 15, 2011, 10:28:59 PM

I have the retrieve full article selected, but it is only selecting the first 200-300 characters. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the regular expression field since I only put in *.

As it was stated above,please use the mod's support thread for further help
