For my current project I’m working on a Flash site which is based on a WordPress backend. There are many API’s out there for retrieving and manipulating data (for example FlashPress and SWFPress), but the problem is that most of these libraries are basically an overload for the project I’m working on right now.
I think that there is a strong need for a wordpress structured XML that gives you all the data you need:
- Navigation Menu (see Appearance>Menu)
- Pages
- Posts
- Bookmarks/Blogroll
- Categories
- .. and so on..
Soon I’ll write a plugin which you can install, so you can access your wp data via XML right away. For the timebeing here’s a temporary solution:
- Download this file
- Extract the file in your theme (wordpress installation/wp-content/themes/themename)
- When navigating to your wp site/wp-content/themes/themename/xml.php you get the data you need.
This xml.php file isn’t optimized yet and there’s space for improvement! Modify it for your project needs. Hoops this helps you out
