Tomasz, Some feedback for you.
1 - WORDPRESS FILES Is there anyway now for users to delete old files. It is not an important point but FTR: - before if I wanted to work with attached files I uploaded from the WP panel and deleted redundant versions there first (AFAIK the file wasn't actually deleted from the server but I am not sure about that one) - typically I would then upload the modified file using the original file name. Is there a way for users to delete their old files now? When I downloaded the post from the UKB back to my desktop the file link was added to the post but of course the link pointed to the server version. - now I can upload files from WLW (it uses a slightly different HTML syntax called "smart content"). If I modify my local attached file, on my desktop, and repost from WLW, and force the issue, it will automatically rename the file by appending 1, 2 etc to the filename as it is loaded to the UKB server - it is a very easy method for users but you will end up with a lot of file versions on your server (if there are lots of users) - the positive is that the user can roll back to previous file versions if they want to (I guess they would have to liase with you about how to do that). Paul - I'm not 100% sure of the implications but: - useing WLW/Scotts file attachment plugin - the link in the WLW post will point to your local address and changed OR renamed versions will be uploaded if you want to do that (good for users - not so good for servers?) - for example, after posting don't save a draft and reopen your post from the recently posted list then 'right click' on the attachment link (show properties opens a properties sidebar - click on 'change files' and the input dialog box will reopen and you can see the address to the file is a your local address). - if you want to force a new file version onto the server click on insert in that box (if not click on cancel) it will adopt the old link/linktitle unless you tell it otherwise - it is worth changing WLW to HTML view to see the code that is being used and changed as the file attachments change (the server address is there after downloading your post from the server). - I haven't checked what happens when you move your local file OR figured how to turn this 'feature' off. 2 - WLW to WORDPRESS I learnt a lot about publishing basics from the UKB. Since then I have read a bit further and I can tell you that for lay publishers WindowsLiveWriter is hard to beat e.g. Joomla uses TinyMCE as the default editor and users have to go out of their way if they want to change that. Also the desktop -> website combo is very good (as always it gets around the clunkiness of websites). So, for straight out blog publishing it is 4/5 stars. No matter where people publish keeping abreast of software updates and customising the site are always ongoing issues.
