Thanks!

I didn’t mean I don’t have the access rights to get to it (I own the site and i’m site admin). I was just trying to give the impression I was not doing any of this ON THE SITE itself. This is all external of WordPress. That’s why I do not have access to those WordPress functions/methods. I’ll check out the XML-RPC_WordPress_API that might be what I need. If that is what I think it is… I wish I knew about this before I made this app… :/

Thanks again!

Yea I know, but that does not help me for what I’m doing… I don’t have access to the WordPress interface. All of this is being done on the backend.

Is there any way possible to get those additional sizes without using the wordpress site itself?

Is there some type of WordPress API I could access to return the info I seek?

I have just confirmed that the latest update of the evolve lite theme (version 3.4.4) has created a bug that breaks the Customizer ran by the Redux Framework.

I have rolled back to 3.4.3 and the theme customizer has started working again.

Version 3.4.4 has a bug.

I “think” the idea is to import your collection (by title) then search for the metadata after the fact (by clicking/editing the title then doing a search at the top under the Metadata tab).

“RT” API key? The only API key I know about with WPMovieLibrary is the TMDb API key. Could you please elaborate.

Could you not just use something like this….
[movies orderby=”date” count=”4″ poster=”medium” meta=”overview”]

To add a link to my site as an example (though I don’t think it’s necessary)…

I took a look at a bunch of the articles attached to that page. The problem is most of it deals with PHP. Any of the APIs I would use for WordPress would be PHP. I’m developing my app in c#.net … I think I will have to stay on my current path and MIGHT be able to reference somethings from those pages.

Thanks everyone!

Thanks Mattr123,

I think I’m going to do the more secure way. I will develop an app to sit on my local server at the house that will check my local database, then do my inserts on the remote WordPress DB manually.

It might not be as clean but this way there is not a chance of something being posted that I don’t want by another user…

Using the wp_insert_post() function would have to be implemented via a PHP page I would write… Then my local server would have to send POST requests to the remote PHP page that in turn would alter the remote WordPress DB.

Using my direct approach I would simply connect strait to the remote WordPress DB and insert a I see fit.

I just hope I have the right idea about the DB layout and when I insert my first new post it does not break the DB. ??

Thanks for the response mattr123! Yea that’s the direction I started to take right after my post. I kinda figured it would not fly. ??

Since then I have been tearing apart the WordPress DB looking for all the connecting wires… From what I can tell I have to alter the following tables in order to get a new post inserted…

wp_posts
wp_term_relationships
wp_term_taxonomy
wp_terms

Then finally I would need to add some entries to…
wp_postmeta

Does that seem about right?
