but first need some include, right?
if yes what kind of files need to include?
I don’t see what includes you are talking about and I would need much more info to understand your problem.
what are you going to use the insert for?
do you have a lot of posts that you are trying to bulk insert once or is it some kind of functionality that fires after a certain event?
I need to understand your need to be able to answer you accordinglly.

Okay, i want to insert post to wordpress from PHP file.
When i open the “mydomain.com/testinsert.php” that script will post the content to db and the wordpress will show it…
ok, try adding this to your php file:
require("wp-includes/post.php");

Wait, you’re trying to use WordPress outside of WordPress?

We have no knowledge of your system that you’re running outside of WordPress. If your external system creates posts then you need to tell us how it does it.
