Going to try this little Tot to Mico.blog publish shortcut again as it did work as intended but some of the links didn’t translate through as I expected upon waking up today. Here goes!

@crossingthethreshold I just tried your shortcut. Working just fine. I installed Tot just recently and think I might use this as a go to app when posting here (except for replies). Is it possible to insert a photo via the shortcut?

Question 2. Dot 1 contains the post that are published throw the shortcut. Is it possible to do averything, even the writing, in the shortcut?

@ndreas Thank you for using my Shortcut. Do make sure that you have Tot , especially dot 1, in plain text mode. The Rich Text setting can throw the formatting of the text on the timeline and your blog. This is especially true if you are using Markdown formatting.

In answer to your questions:

  1. It currently is not possible to add a photo directly from the Shortcut. I might consider this in a future update, you have got my mind thinking. For now you have to upload the photo separately and add the link via Markdown formatting to the body of your post.

  2. It is not possible to write within the Shortcut. That was not in the original plan for the Shortcut. I just wanted to see if I could post from Tot.

@ndreas Well I have managed to write a Shortcut where I can type a post from the Shortcut. I want to tidy it up, but will let you know when it is finished. Probably the other side of the weekend.
