    Hello everyone!

    I hope to find some help, because i’m a little lost.
    I have made som nodes, which is transmitting data through LORA, to thethingsnetwork.org.
    From here, it is possible to get the data, through their ‘HTTP integration’, which makes an HTTP Post with the data from the node, everytime thethingsnetwork receives a message from the node.
    And this is where I’m stuck, because i’m not quite sure how to get these data into the wordpress database.
    I would therefor like to hear, if any of you have done this, or have any good ideas how to do it.

    I’m looking forward to hear from you, and thanks in advance 😀

    I can’t see how they might post to your WordPress unless they have an RSS output or a ‘bridge’ for WordPress. You might look for the RSS badge on the content output they provide. Else, any ‘bridge’ would be a plugin provided by them or a third party. I don’t know of any bridge myself.

    If the IOT data host provides an RSS (or Atom) feed then you could use a plugin such as Feed WordPress to import those feed items on a continuous and constantly updated basis according to how often the feed is updated.

    One more thought might be to talk to some of the people over at Indieweb chat on Slack or IRC. Some of those people there are really handy, interested in interconnectivity, and might be able to assist you some.

    If you are really lucky and have a homebrew website club meeting in your area you might look to them for some help also.

    Should you find an RSS feed available then do look at the Feed WordPress plugin.

    The author of that plugin supports it and its add ons well. I’m fairly familiar with it also.

    Hope something here might help.

    One more thought might be to use a manual method using ‘Press This’ as a stopgap while you cobble up something on your own.

    There’s also Press Forward’s ‘Nominate This’ if you have trouble with Press This.
