      Some sort of bot that automatically posts blogs?

      Is it possible to get some sort of bot that will let me input a link and it would automatically post a blog with a pre-made template?


      Like say for example I wanted to post on the blog something like "Link: http://www.dreamviews.com" and I already had the template "Link: _______" and I just had to put in the link and click a button and it post automatically.

      Is that possible? Or rather, are there any pre-programmed ones out there?

      I don't know too much about it. I do, however, know that Banhurt's Dream Journal 2.3 program has a feature that automatically uploads your dreams to the website, and even allows for BBCode configuration.

      If you're really good with that kind of thing, you could ask to see the source code and try to put something together off of that.

      Now that is a very good idea.

      God I wish I could program

      EDIT: Wait, I totally misread, TL;DR the OP. NVM.

      You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.

      So if I'm understanding this correctly, you want to use a script/program that lets you enter a website template and a link and it'll post the link on the blog as a comment?

      I don't see why you'd need the template. You'd have to use a template and you could use regular expressions (or recursively PHP explode() several times, splitting the website) to read, however to post a comment you'd just need the names of the form fields and you could just send a POST form submission from anywhere.

      I'm not entirely understanding what it is you exactly want, though.

      If you want to know how something gets posted on DV or any other forum, I recommend downloading a program called Fiddler. It shows you everything that the browser is doing and what it's posting to websites.
