Fetch Posts from Steemit with a handy and lightweight PHP Script
The wish to use Steemit for page news
I wished to integrate the steemit posts I make to my webpage, and my skills and knowledge to the blockchain data and what APIs are available for the steem is limited. As I wrote a while ago I finally got them integrated to my webpage, gridcoinstats.eu.
This way I do not have to use a separate blogging software just for page updates, and I get a cool commenting and rewards system integrated to the page. It's a simple way to do it. Users still have to go to the steemit page to do upvoting and commenting.
My solution
I wrote a light weight PHP script for this purpose. Because it's simple, light and a language I know how to use easily. You can fetch it at my GitHub.
Since this script loads the actual HTML file and reads trough it I would recommend using this with a cache, like a database or similar, and pull the data in intervals. Putting this on a webpage directly would not be recommended.

I was going to test out your script but your git is gone.
Guess I'll have to make my own.
A change in Steem rendered the code useless. I'd recommend looking at SteemJS on github. It will let users load steem data over JS.
yeah thanks I have a solution
