I am wondering if anyone knows the information on how to make automatic replies to threads that us the IP.Board forum. I'm not planning to write a spam bot however there is a forum when people are for x service, and our app can automatically detect if they are looking for what we offer and are hoping to have it automatically reply with some information.
If someone knows how, or has a link to the documention - that would be greatly appreciated.
According to their docs, you can use the postReply call:
postReply
- member_field: This should be the field to look up the 'member_key' in (for instance, 'member_id', 'email', 'members_display_name', etc.)
- member_key: The value to search in 'member_field' with in order to find the poster. You may pass member_field as ID and member_key as 1, for instance, to post a reply as member ID 1.
- topic_id: The ID of the topic to post the reply in
- post_content: The contents of the first post
If that isn't working, probably the administrator has turned off XML-RPC out of safety.
