Hi,<\/p>\n
Following my previous post, I completely understand that integrating my suggestion with the rest of the code, and adding the associated error handling and reporting is not trivial, and probably not something you’re going to embark on in the near future.<\/p>\n
On the other hand if I wanted to put together something quick and dirty myself, as far as I see, it would just be case of reading an extra variable from the input box and poplulating the appropriate field to write to the database. Would you see it as being much more complicated than that?<\/p>\n
Would you be able to point me to appropriate part in the code? The part reads and parses the input box, and the part which writes to the database?<\/p>\n
An even quicker (and dirtier!) way of doing it would be just to update the database directly. I see that the event origin is preserved in the meta data. I’m thinking I could put something together to update post_author for events originating at Facebook. Any problems with that, apart from the usual caveats about running SQL directly on a production database? <\/p>\n
One thing that is confusing me is that some post have their author set to a non-existant user (post_author=0);<\/p>\n
I appreciate that you don’t support customizations here, but if you could let me know if the above sounds feasible, and give me any pointers in the right direction, that would be very helpful.<\/p>\n
Thanks a lot.
