Re: XML-RPC For Textpattern - BETA 2 RELEASED!
Argh, darn and burger it! If only I had access to a Mac to test this myself… (donations greatly welcomed ;) )
I shall get on the job ASAP and will hopefully have a new release out this weekend.
Thank you everyone for the feedback! You’re a great help!

Re: XML-RPC For Textpattern - BETA 2 RELEASED!
I’ve just been trying this out using Ecto on Windows. Everything seems to have worked OK ie post is on-line, comments are open, textile worked fine etc. but I got a “Server returned exception” error message. Any idea what that might be?

Ok so now I’ve tried it using Zempt 0.3 which is specifically designed for MT and that works too. It’s also free which is a bonus.

This also works with Flickr. I know a lot of people here like to just use their own photo albums. But I found it pretty cool.

Using w.bloggar and it doesn’t turn comments on, other than that it seems to work fine.

Yeah, I tested this tonight. Flickr gives me an error message, saying that it failed, but the post is created. That’s one more bug for me to iron out…

Re: XML-RPC For Textpattern - BETA 2 RELEASED!
I got it to download articles using MarsEdit (i had to mark the “blog id” as “articles” and it downloaded everything in the articles section. ) It did download the categories, and noticed entries that had various categories marked, but the categories marked were lost when I saved the article.
Deleting even worked. I’m impressed.

Thank you SO much! That was the missing element for me – putting the section name in the blog ID field! Its now working great! As you say, downloaded posts don’t retain their category, but I’m able to post articles with catgeories OK. Superb!
Cheers,

Re: XML-RPC For Textpattern - BETA 2 RELEASED!
Yeah – it kinda makes sense…. sorta…. if you think about how Movable Type used different blogs for different sections… so you could create a new blog in marsedit for a different section, right?

I think its a great start. For one I am going to start making a custom input with Flash and XML-RPC. This way I can customize the input for the users giving greater usability and more functions while using the core TXP API and my additions.

Re: XML-RPC For Textpattern - BETA 2 RELEASED!
I love using this with Flickr for running a moblog right now, but I have a problem:
When I post to Textpattern via Flickr, comments are turned off and the comment invite is “Comment” instead of using the defaults I set in the admin preferences (comments are on by default and use a custom invite).
Now, the invite I think I can fix through editing xmlrpcs.php, but I don’t know how to get comments to be on. Any suggestions?
