Overview
Issues and information related to cross-posting WordPress content to various social media sites.
Desired workflow
- Maintain and update content in my custom CMS.
- The Custom CMS posts to WordPress via its built-in XML-RPC listener.
- Either the site CMS or WordPress then submits that content to social media sites:
- Facebook (author page, not personal page)
- Tumblr
- Flickr
WordPress plugins
Next Scripts: Social Networks Auto Poster
Overview
This plugin automatically publishes posts from your blog to your Social Network accounts including Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Tumblr, etc.
It supports posting to Facebook pages (as opposed to a personal Facebook timeline).
Cross-posting to Facebook pages
The post doesn't seem to link back to my blog without adding a link to the text of the post on Facebook.
Tumblr
Tumblerize
WordPress plugin.
I think it’s set up with the expectation that you’d be manually creating WordPress posts and selecting the cross-post to Tumbler option from there. I.e. it’s all manual. Not sure if it can be set up to automatically post to Tumbler after remotely posting to WP via XML-RPC.
The goal is to post to a Facebook page as opposed to a Facebook user's timeline.
It is easier to post to a person's Facebook timeline than it is to post to a Facebook page.
There are WP plugins that allow you to cross-post to your personal Facebook page, but nothing at this date (October 2011) that makes it simple to cross-post to a Facebook page.
RSS Graffiti
Facebook app.
- Possible solution. Still under consideration.
- Setup & configuration:
- Grant it permission to your personal account
- Then grant it permission to the Facebook page.
- Then add the feed to the list of feeds for the Facebook page.
- I set this up to pull content from the RSS feed for blog.damienjay.com and post it on the Damien Jay Comics Facebook page. More about this once I have seen it actually pull from my RSS.
