Question

I am posting to wordpress using below code

   <?php
            require("class-IXR.php");  
            $client = new IXR_Client('http://domain.com/xmlrpc.php');

            $USER = 'user';
            $PASS = 'pass';

            $content['title'] = 'Test title';
            $content['categories'] = array("games");
            $content['description'] = '<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</p>';
            $content['custom_fields'] = array( array('key' => 'my_custom_fied','value'=>'yes') );
            $content['mt_keywords'] = array('foo','bar');

            if (!$client->query('metaWeblog.newPost','', $USER,$PASS, $content, true))
            {
                die( 'Error while creating a new post' . $client->getErrorCode() ." : ". $client->getErrorMessage());  
            }
            $ID =  $client->getResponse();

            if($ID)
            {
                echo 'Post published with ID:#'.$ID;
            }

    ?>

How can i avoid posting duplicate title.For example if i already have post with title Test it . When i try to post another post with title Test it it should not post.

P.s : I have 1000’s of post in my blog.

Answer 1

if (is_null(get_page_by_title( $content['title'], OBJECT, 'post'))) {

// Do your stuff in this case (no post with the same title)

}

else {

// Do not create post

}
