User
Options
Database access parameters are retrieved from the WordPress 'wp-config.php' file
in the WordPress installation root file directory. You should first verify the
file exists, and that it contains accurate database access instructions before
proceeding. This script will not execute without the WordPress wp-config.php file.
Option -
Script Test Mode
This script
can restrict incoming access to Article
Marketer or iSnare servers.
If Script Test Mode is Disabled, Script execution will halt if an access attempt is made from any
other host. The option to Enable Script Test Mode is provided to allow testing by
the web site owner. If you need to test your script, then you must Enable
this option.
To implement
the security restriction, disable this option. When
Script Test Mode is Enabled, all script import messages will
be displayed in the browser window during the import
process.
NOTE: If you receive an error
Invalid Host - Access Denied during access or testing, change this value to true
in order to bypass originating host validation.
- Enable:
$script_test_mode
= true;
- Disable:
$script_test_mode
= false;
Option -
View Test Mode Progress on Screen
This option
defines how script activity messages are displayed when
using test mode. When this option is Enabled, all script
activity is displayed on-screen. When Disabled, the screen
output is suppressed. The messages are identical to messages
stored in the logfile, if the logfile is enabled.
- Enable:
$view_test_mode_progress_on_screen
= true;
- Disable: $view_test_mode_progress_on_screen
= false;
Option -
Log Script Activity
This
option allows script activity to be captured to a
log file. This information is useful for monitoring incoming
article receipt and for trouble isolation. Enable this
option to record the log file. Disable this option if a
log file is not required.
- Enable:
$log_script_activity
= true;
- Disable:
$log_script_activity
= false;
Option -
Logfile
This
configuration option provides the directory and filename to be
used for the script log file. This must be a valid
directory and file write access must be granted. If the
$log_script_activity option is disabled (false), the $logfile option is
ignored.
Note:
If you receive an error when
accessing your script - Warning: fopen(cgi-bin/article_log.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to
open stream: it means the logfile could not be written. Check the $logfile option to ensure the
/cgi-bin/ directory is valid and that write access is enabled in that directory.
- $logfile = getcwd()."/cgi-bin/article-log.txt";
Option -
Import Text or HTML Article [
iSnare Only ]
This
option determines if the TEXT or HTML data field will be
imported from iSnare to the article dashboard article body
field. The directory owner must
select which format will be imported.
- TEXT:
$import_text_or_html_article
= "text";
-

$import_text_or_html_article
= "html";
NOTE:
Article Marketer delivers TEXT or HTML format based on the
option chosen when signing up for article delivery. Format
changes must be resubmitted to Article Marketer.
Option -
Import Text or HTML Bio [ iSnare Only ]
This
option determines if the TEXT or HTML data field will be
imported from iSnare to the article dashboard article
resource field. The directory owner must select which format
will be imported.

$import_text_or_html_bio
= "text";
