    1.4.5 did not have the custom post logic added, but 1.4.6 will.

    Thanks. I should have downloaded the fork. Instead I just copy/pasted what I thought was all the modified code. When I d/led the fork it worked fine.

    1.4.10 will have a couple of fixes for custom post types.

    @wayne. Thanks for the recent updates. I’m trying to understand how to make use of the recent custom post type feature you added..

    Using custom post types, I would like to post in a category named “Lost and Found” with tag_id=1618 and post_type=dailyposts_type for example.

    What’s the correct subject line syntax to post some text into this category?

    Many Thanks.

    @f4iedrich: If you look at Dashboard -> Settings -> Postie -> Help, you’ll see usage instructions that describe how to do what you’re asking.

    So you’d probably want something like this:

    Subject Line:
    dailyposts_type // [Lost and Found] : My Post Title

    Body of Message:

    tags: mytag
    
    This is my example post. The rest of the post content goes here.

    Where ‘mytag’ is the actual name of tag_id 1618. Again, please read over Dashboard -> Settings -> Postie -> Help for complete details about how to configure Custom Post Types, Categories, and Tags.

    Thanks for your reply and detailed example Raam Dev. I’ll give it a spin. I appreciate you helping out here!
