Since 2010 that I’m using this script to post content on some of my 10s blogs.
I got it from WORDPRESS XMLRPC – POSTING CONTENT FROM OUTSIDE WORDPRESS ADMIN.

Add a post to wordpress with PHP

<?php

require_once("IXR_Library.php.inc");
$client->debug = true; //Set it to false in Production Environment

$title="Blog Title"; // $title variable will insert your blog title
$body="Blog Content"; // $body will insert your blog content (article content)
$category="category1, category2"; // Comma seperated pre existing categories. Ensure that these categories exists in your blog.
$keywords="keyword1, keyword2, keyword3";
$customfields=array('key'=>'Author-bio', 'value'=>'Autor Bio Here'); // Insert your custom values like this in Key, Value format

$title = htmlentities($title,ENT_NOQUOTES,$encoding);
$keywords = htmlentities($keywords,ENT_NOQUOTES,$encoding);

$content = array(
'title'=>$title,
'description'=>$body,
'mt_allow_comments'=>0, // 1 to allow comments
'mt_allow_pings'=>0, // 1 to allow trackbacks
'post_type'=>'post',
'mt_keywords'=>$keywords,
'categories'=>array($category),
'custom_fields' => array($customfields)
);

// Create the client object
$client = new IXR_Client('Your Blog Path/xmlrpc.php');
$username = "USERNAME";
$password = "PASSWORD";

$params = array(0,$username,$password,$content,true); // Last parameter is 'true' which means post immediately, to save as draft set it as 'false'

// Run a query for PHP if (!$client->query('metaWeblog.newPost', $params)) {
die('Something went wrong - '.$client->getErrorCode().' : '.$client->getErrorMessage());
} else { echo "Article Posted Successfully"; } ?>
