[SOLVED] Uploading a picture inside of Wordpress Blog Post

[a2mateit 395]

Hello,

 

I am trying to upload a picture inside of a wordpress blog post after the predefined text of "Screenshot:".

 

This text only appears once, and I need to be able to upload a picture after the text. Is this possible?

 

Thanks,

-Justin

Hey TJ,

 

Thanks for the code, but how do I specify where to upload the picture to.

 

For example, Screenshot: is half way through the post and surrounded by other text.

 

So it should upload right after Screenshot:

 

I watched your video a couple of times, but I think I am missing something.

Split your content to post into 2 lists

 

add the first half up to that point then upload pic

 

then add the rest (list 2) to the text area

Thanks I will give this a try.

Forgot to mention I'm doing this in 3.5 so above code doesn't work.

 

Nevermind, got it to work. Thanks again TJ.

 

Instead of creating a new thread, I am having trouble choosing just one category in 3.5, it is selecting all categories. Any fix for this?

 

Edit: Cannot click the Insert into Post button. Tried everything. Any fix for 3.5

Why aren't you doing it in v4?

 

 

Runs much faster, and anything wordpress I have been able to do with ease.

[a2mateit 395]

TJ,

 

The type text in v4 has some kind of bug I believe. It will only enter the first 140 characters into my blog post, but works flawlessly in 3.5

 

I tried multiple times, but it just won't enter in my full blog post for some reason.

[a2mateit 395]

I also have not been successful in getting version 4 to work on my VPS running Windows 2008.

 

So I have to code in 3.5 if I want to be able to run it on my server 24/7.

 

Still trying to click the Insert into Post button, I hope it's possible.

i have posted in wordpress, successfully more then 2500 + character articles

 

as for the VPS setup. there is multiple things to check to make sure it has everything Ubot needs to run.

Hey TJ,

 

I opened up v4 and it is working now. But as far as my VPS, it worked for the first couple of days but now it won't open.

 

It shows it running in my processes under task manager, but never loads up.

 

Any documentation on how to make v4 work on a VPS windows 2008, I know it's not technically a supported platform but it would be nice if it could work.

 

Any work around on clicking the Insert into Post button in v3.5?

 

Thanks for all your responses.

if you have anti virus, firewall, anti spyware, or anti malware software on the vps then make sure it is not blocking ubot at all.

 

Another reason it might not work is check to make sure .NET v3 and 4 are installed

 

Also make sure the support files are installed.

Split your content to post into 2 lists

 

add the first half up to that point then upload pic

 

then add the rest (list 2) to the text area

 

Finally got the picture to upload. But now, when the second part of the text gets added into the text area it deletes everything that is already there (first half of text and picture).

 

Any idea on how to keep the first half of text and picture when I add in the second half of the text?

[LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904]

try this

 

after first part of content is there

you add picture

 

then flip to html tab

 

 

scrape the value on the section to a list

 

then add the second portion to that same list you scraped to

 

then write it all to the value of the content area

Thanks TJ,

 

Got it to work finally. Thank you.

 

Now i'm gonna have to re-configure how it works, and use a .csv in order to do mulitple blog posts with multiple pictures.

 

Hopefully, when I get stuck you will allow me to pick your brain some more.

 

Still trying to get v4 to work on my VPS, but that is another issue for another day.

 

Thanks again,

-Justin
