Acck! Sorry, y'all!! I am new to launchpad, so didn't find this bug when I searched for gnome-blog related bugs. Here is a patch that fixes this issue:
<snip from Bug #53089> When creating an "account" on gnome-blog and setting the "Blog Type" to "Self-Run Wordpress", gnome-blog appends: wordpress/xmlrpc.php to the "Base Blog URL". If you set an alternative directory name for the wordpress installation, ie: http://my.wordpress.com/other_dirname You will receive the following error when trying to "Lookup Blogs": Could not get list of blogs URL 'http://my.wordpress.com/other_dirnamewordpress/xmlrpc.php' does not seem to be a valid bloggerAPI XML-RPC server. Web server reported: Not Found." Here is a patch to blogge,r_prefs.py that will fix that problem, by simply removing the "wordpress/xmlrpc.php", and only inserting, "/xmlrpc.php": --- blogger_prefs.py 2006-07-15 14:39:57.000000000 -0500 +++ blogger_prefs.py.new 2006-07-15 14:41:26.000000000 -0500 @@ -126,7 +126,7 @@ url_description = _("Base Blog URL:") elif blog_type == "custom-wordpress": url = None - url_ending = "wordpress/xmlrpc.php" + url_ending = "/xmlrpc.php" protocol = "MetaWeblog" url_description = _("Base Blog URL:") elif blog_type == "blogger.com": </snip> -- Cannot set custom path for WP https://launchpad.net/bugs/44867 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
