djchuang.com: Wordpress fix for blog post via email

  • Bumble · 2 years ago
    Hey DJ, here's some exclusive Keller's content for your page. I just typed up my favorite Keller sermon "The Hiddenness of God" here: http://docs.google.com/View?docID=dwh8457_4dq8m...

    You can add it to your page or cut-and-paste it to your googlepages.

    Bumble, thanks for your diligence with transcribing one of Keller's sermon classics. And, thanks for letting me know of your work and granting permission to link to it -- which is what I've done on my Keller page. It indeed challenges us to the deepest core of our faith when God seems silent or hidden in the hard times, and like Jacob and Job, we learn things in that place that cannot be learned elsewhere.

    There is another bug in the e-mail posting feature: when sending an e-mail, the parser cannot separate the header from the body of the mail HTML, so all posts have a huge blank space above the text. Any idea on solving it?

    Changing the lines of code step 3 produced SOME content getting posted in the body section... but when the pop3 parser hit a quote mark (").... it ended the entire post at that point and did not continue. Anyone else have this problem? Just thought I'd mention it.

    I have been after a fix for this for a week now... Have you made any headway on this or have you given up? This is a really frustrating problem. I wish wordpress would put more work into this. There are awesome possibilities with this if you think about using it over mms.

    No more headway. I'm not a PHP programmer, so I can't do much about it.

    Since WordPress is open source, it's not only the Wordpress people that works on the software. Potentially anyone can work on a solution for this "post by email" function. But it looks like no one has succeeded yet.

    Right, I would just like an official wordpress release with a beefed up email to blog function. Currently the function isn't even working for me at all. Even from a regular email account it wont post the body f the email, just the subject... soo dumb.

    I have the exact same problem. I tried the Postie plugin. It seems to work sometime and but other times it posts only the subject. Not sure what's going on.
