editing a WordPress blog post with local Android WordPress app

Post by tsolignani » 05 Jan 2020 10:14

Hallo everybody and have a nice Sunday.

I am trying to use the local Android WordPress app to edit a blog post, what I would like to do is to pass the post's URL to the app and make it open it in edit mode.

This is the flow I tried to make, but it does not work.

Any hint?

Thank you.

I don't see any support for automation in the wordpress playstore description. Does it really support the intent link? You should try action Start Activity instead, not Send Broadcast.

if it doesn't work, then you can only try to open the link and continue using Control UI to click the edit button. I don't have wordpress nor the app. Maybe you can provide the screenshot what happen after you exeucte that command.

Thank you.

I don't know wether it supports automation or not.

What happens is that it shows the app home page, just that.

Thank you.

If that so, it seems you should use Control UI then. It just wonder me a lot, we can do many things that are limited. I just rebuild my QRCode Scanner flow today. One of the branch need to open the url link in Chrome Incognito, which has no direct activity and protected by certain token. So I simply use Control UI to loop open the link and it still works.
