Publish your blog with Windows Live Writer


Recommended Posts

Windows Live Writer support was originally requested here. Through research I found that we already supported the required API needed to do this, but it was disabled.

Please note that Tables, Pictures, Maps, and Videos are not uploadable to your blog with Windows Live Writer and it will inform you of this if you try. You will need an off-site hosting solution for this if you want to embed them with Windows Live Writer.

Step 1 - Enable Support

At the top right of Neowin, go to My Blog

Click on the Interfaces tab and select Enable the XML-RPC interface. Then enter a password you want to use with this. Now save and close.
