Firstly, Twitter rules! And here is a great example!
In my frustration of WP and Live Writer not working well together, I tweeted the following:
[Sofia] is not happy with WordPress 2.7.1 and/or Live Writer & ScribeFire cos they are not working a 100% together 🙁
A short while later, Brandon Turner replied back to me:
@Sofia I’m a developer on Windows Live Writer, whats the problem?
I tweeted a link to my previous post and Brandon came back with the following answers:
@Sofia First thing first, you have to upgrade xmllib2 on your server. that is what is causing the < > stripping. http://tinyurl.com/7slycb
@Sofia Now for the template problem… try doing View > Uncheck ‘Enable editing using themes’, does editing in that mode work for you?
I am so grateful & appreciative that Brandon helped me with this!!
Re the update for the server, I have to check with the guy who hosts my website to see if he is ok with the upgrade or not since it is his server. But thanks to Brandon, I now know what the solution to the problem is.
I have unchecked the theme and I can write my blog posts. It is a bit bare:
and I hope there is a future fix so I can have the theme as the background when I am writing my posts.
This is happy ending to a problem that was outside my knowledge range.
You live and you learn and thanks to Twitter it is easier to learn new things.
