Support this Site!

You may have noticed that there's very little third-party advertising on this site. I'd like to keep it that way. Here's how you can help:

  • Buy my books. They're available at great prices on Amazon.com.
  • Check out my training videos on Lynda.com. It's a great source for "all you can eat" training.
  • Donate a few dollars. It'll help cover my hosting costs and give you a chance to tell me what you want to see covered here.
  • Comment on blog posts. You can help get a discussion going that can benefit others, making the site more valuable for everyone.

Posting by E-Mail?

I set up posting by e-mail and test it.

This is a test to see if posting by e-mail works.

Posting by e-mail is a WordPress feature that enables you to post blog entries by sending an e-mail message to a secret e-mail address. The address is secret because if it weren’t, then anyone could post to the blog.

If you’re seeing this, it means I set it up correctly. If the first line is bold, that means formatting works, too. If you’re not seeing this, then I’m writing to myself (it won’t be the first time) and I’ll have to check the setup.

Let’s see how we do…clicking Send now!

  • Yeah! Why wouldn’t it work? WordPress ROCKZ!

  • I don’t know why it wouldn’t — other than the fact that I could screw up the install. As a matter of fact, I did get a weird error message that stalled things a bit, but the Codex helped me resolve the problem and it works well. Just need to remember not to use the formatting in my e-mail program — it appears to choke the body of the message. Anyway, I wrote it up for the book and have moved on to other things. Tomorrow: Moderating Comments.

    I think, that is interesting for all.
