Re: [Flashcoders] Loading content from and sending comments to Wordpress from Flash

Not sure if it's too late for you to start this but, you might look into
using xmlrpc to manage your WordPress instance. There's quite a bit of
existing code out there for doing this, and you could start here
http://osflash.org/xmlrpcflash with a working xmlrpc flash client.

I mention this because it bypasses all the odd inner workings
of WordPress (like your cookie issue) and offers a simple "wp.newComment"
method for you to use. Open the xmlrpc.php file in the root of
your WordPress install for a full list of methods (they start on line 128).

As for the cookie, I almost remember some oddness about that that led me to
use xmlrpc. If you've come to far to switch gears now, crack open
"wp-comments-post.php" & "wp-includes/comment.php". That should give you an
order of operation for the validation/cookie/insert-comment, and lead you in
the right direction.

[Flashcoders] Loading content from and sending comments to Wordpress from Flash

2010-02-15 Thread dr.ache

hi list.

does anyone see a big problem querying a wordpress database with php
and loading the result into flash? i did some testing and everything worked
as expected - so far.

now to the funny part. if i want to post comments to a post in wordpress 
from
flash there is one thing I'm curious about. i used the firefox plugin 
tamper data
and had a look at the post data which is send if i post a comment on a 
regular
html wordpress site. there is a cookie send along that wordpress surely 
needs.
if i delete the cookie and proceed with the server request a wordpress 
error
occurs. How can I read in that cookie and how can I push it into the 
header of

the post request?

Does anyone have experience with posting comments in wordpress from flash?
Thanks for any answers.
