Auto posting
The function of posting articles in the system and CMS, where you can’t post in ordinary way.
If there are no other options for filling articles, other than through the browser, then Auto Post by Zebroid wil be helpful for you.
I will begin immediately with the fact that if you want to use the script, which comes bundled with the program, make sure you have the latest working version of this script. (http://zebroid.us/forum/viewforum.php?f=4).
The most striking example in which there is a need to use this tool – when there are no other options for uploading articles, except through a web browser. That is precisely what is Autoposting do.
Conventionally, consists of three parts:
- Settings- This includes template windows and configuration of mass posting
- Scripts – behavior scripts (or in other words, posting templates). Do not open this tab, except when you need to add a script, or you clearly know what you are doing
- Browser - actually is a view of the process of posting
Templates
Window of templates should not cause any problems. You can create/delete/edit templates of access to the admin page of the site (the data that scripts needs to do their job).
What you should pay attention - is at the bottom of the screen. There are:
- A list of additional field – it should be filled, if the script needs them. Example: The password for the admin page which may differ from the user's login to the site
- Mode of posting, Run, Stop - the main tool for management
- Add only the unused posts and categories - this option is responsible for not adding already posted articles while re-posting. Do not forget about it, because if something goes wrong and you have accidently removed from the site that Zebroid has already posted, then it should be turned off because the next time the program will not post these articles, as it does not know what articles was removed, and what was not
Also, you have an opportunity to add not only for one account, but also directly import a list. For this you need to call the appropriate item from the context menu. Format of template import:
TEMPLATE_NAME;URL;POSTING_SCRIPT_NAME;LOGIN;PASSWORD TEMPLATE_NAME;URL;POSTING_SCRIPT_NAME;LOGIN;PASSWORD ... TEMPLATE_NAME;URL;POSTING_SCRIPT_NAME;LOGIN;PASSWORD
Settings of mass posting
This tab defines the behavior of the program in the Mass Posting mode:
- Send posts - determines which posts should be used while posting. To some of the options you need to set an additional conditions
- Method of choosing posts for posting - determines how the program will distribute posts between templates
- Pause
- Post - the program's behavior during the posting
- Login - determines when the program needs to login to the blog (sometimes there is a need to login each time entering the blog)
- Category - specifies whether to create a category
Creating templates
On this tab you are creating posting scripts. I repeat: do not use this tab if you're not a developer. Many people ignore my request, and then complain about the program, although the program is working correctly, the reason - not understanding the purpose of controls on this tab. If you're not a developer - you do not need to understand anything, this tab is more for me than for you.
Here we have a list of templates and editor for them.
Editor itself consists of 2-parts:
- Script editor;
- The editor of additional fields and text variables.
The first algorithm is responsible for the template of posting. Detailed information about all procedures and variables can be found on this page: Instructions for creating scripts for auto posting.
Second - responsible for presence of one or the other fields in the body of the script and data necessary to test the script on the performance.
Will focus on the editor of additional fields, since its use requires knowledge of the recording format. So the following format (each new entry with a new line):
VARIABLE_NAME = DESCRIPTION | DEFAULT_VALUE
The variable name can be anything. is essentially what the program looks before running the script to replace the value.
Description is what the user see in the list add. fields, which he is required to fill while creating account.
Default value - a value that is set before the user enters his own. During the test, the program uses the default value to fill add. fields.
For those who do not have the desire or skill to create such scripts, here is a table of orders, where you can request our team to create a desired script for auto post.
Note: Do not try to post by filling data in the second tab and clicking "Test", it is only a tool for debugging, but not posting. For posting, please use posting profiles and button "Run"
Note 2: Autoposting does not have possibility to upload your pictures on the site. The reason ist hat browsers have protection against spoofing fields to send files (so that an attacker could not do anything wrong), so, if you want to display the local pictures of the project on the site – upload them on hosting before postings
