Hey,
Is there a way to check if a new post has been submitted on your
favourite wordpress site?
So, you want something to tell you if something new has been added to
a remote site, right?
There used to be free services that did that -- I used to monitor
competitors's web sites using such service. But, I think they
eventually stopped the free service. Here's one site that charges:
http://www.webmetrics.com/websitemonitoring.html
Now, if you want to do this on your own, then it should be simple
enough to use get_file_contents and put the file through a md5()
function (or use md5_file) and store the result in a dB.
Then cron a check every so often to see if the hash has changed. If
it has, then email you notice, rehash the site and store it in the dB.
Or, am I completely off-base in understanding what you wanted (as
I've been told lately)?
Cheers,
tedd
