I need to access Wordpress posts (Outside) from my Android Application. I need to display somehow the last post ( Maybe Titles in a listview), and edit some of them by entering new text, picture and video.
I came across many explanations about how to do that in php. But since I'm working with Andoird. I need it in Java
Any idea how to do that ??
I'm not familiar with WordPress, but I can suggest you to start with RSS-parsing of your posts (WordPress provides RSS, right?).
One way of doing it would be to access the WordPress database. I am not 100% familiar with WordPress but I think the posts are stored in the table wp_posts. You should also be able to find, access, and edit any data within.
I Know buddy What you Want to do with Wordpess and Android Application. i Can give you Some Scripts..
Download SVN Grabber

It depends of the kind of web. For example for a blog (Wordpress, Blogger), a social network (facebook, twitter, etc), you can use json objects to interactuate with your web.
I had a simple app that retrieve data from a wordpress blog, you can take a look to learn something about managing json objects and http requests.
This is the link: Material App, Wordpress Blog
You can use my code as a reference: Android XML Multi-Node Reading Using Current Date.
The only difference is that I used XML instead of JSON, but the main concept behind both is pretty much the same. Also I recommend using Async.
As for learning Android API, I would go to Youtube tutorials as well as: https://developer.android.com/guide/index.html
I'm new to android development. I've started with an app on eclipse using java which uses a database of locations. My question is, how would I be able to connect my android app which to the database. Also suggest a suitable way of creating the database. Can I create it in mysql and then import in eclipse?
Look here.
I hope this will help you.
If you want to use MySQL to insert the data then use web service to send data in XML format from android to web service.
This link should explain everything that you need!

If you're just using this database for your application to store data, sqlite is a much better choice than mysql and integrates simply into android. I used the very same link above awhile back when I was getting into this stuff. The tutorial is structured in a very easy to read manner and explains everything as it goes. Good luck.
I don't know whether I should ask this question here. I have very little experience in development of android application. I did few researches. Let me explain my problem. I am making an android app to show a details of a university. I used a WebView to display the results from a HTML & CSS page it was very easy for me here is a demo. I thought of using JSON for fetching data form the database. Now I am not sure how to populate it. Please suggest me a way to populate the same data as in that example page.
I have visited http://android.stackoverflow.com but in FAQs I found this question shouldn't be asked there. I hope I am asking it in the right place.
You can populate your data using Listview. You can use a custom or default adapter for setting it in the ListView. And you don't need to use JSON for fetching data from database. You can fetch data from database using Cursor.
For such a simple solution with low amount of data you might also consider to create a pure mobile web-application using a JavaScript based template systems. It would suffice as an pragmatic approach.
The templates also provide flexibility at later points during your development cycle when you may switch the underlying software-platform (for instance from a web to a native app)
I recommend PURE or handlebars.
See

Embedded.JS

So i am just wondering to find some proper clue. Can any body help what approach should i take
to pull the blogs from wordpress.
Why not use the RSS-Feed? Its a standard-api an there is ton of information about this. The URL of the feed is http://dekora.com/blog/?feed=rss2 and IBM got a nice tutorial on parsing and using RSS on its homepage
Wordpress-Java library can be useful for you :
wordpress-java
Let us know if you try and successfully use it.
I am new to Android development and am interested in working out a design of an application. I am however, unfamiliar with the best way to handle what I want to do. I am interested in obtaining information from my band's Joomla website and placing it into an Android application. At the moment I'd like to get News articles posted and potentially other information that I create on the site. I was thinking of doing this by setting up RSS feeds for the website. Would it be better to somehow access the data directly by connecting to the database? I don't know PHP so I can't develop a webservice to access the content. Any ideas?
In this case I think using the RSS feed would work just fine and it saves the hassle of connecting directly to the database. Just use any XML parser. I think Jsoup would work:
