* An HTML editor with syntax highlighting.

* Support for creating drafts and scheduled posts!
* Support for uploading media files to your blog (Just on supported APIs e.g. MetaWeblog and MovableType)
* Support for uploading to FTP server.

Hi,

I've tried to use Bloglio with Drupal, but I keep on getting error messages *yes blog APIs are enabled on the drupal install*.

Firstly on adding the blog:

blog URL is entered as "node/add/blog/xmlrpc.php"

I add my username/password, and press autoconfigure:

Error:
"Unknown type of XML markup received"

It also throws up:

Fetching the blog id timed out. Check your Internet connection,and your homepage URL, username or password.
Note that the URL has to contain "http://"
If you are using a self-hosted Wordpress blog, you have to enable Remote Publishing in its configuration."

If I ignore the error messages and try to publish content I get this error message:
"An error occurred in the last transaction.
Server (XMLRPC) error: Unknown type of XML markup received"

whats wrong?

By the way, the auto config tool is the one that assumed wordpress. I have changed it to MoveableType API to no avail.

KDE 4.4 is a collection of softwares, Each one may have a different version number.
Developers choose this number according to the application history and its current state (stable or not). KDE doesn't force these softwares to have the same version number as it does.

I wasted much time trying to update my LiveJournal account with KBlogger.

Bilbo Blogger has better toolkit and it works without any crashes (for now).

Well done, Golnaz!

Could You add support to bilbo for my.opera.com blog?

Thank You Very Much.

It supports MovableType API! and Bilbo supports it too!
So you should try MovableType.

ref: http://my.opera.com/community/api/

Try this url: http://my.opera.com/<username>/blog/api/ as Blog URL and then goto advanced tab and select MovableType API!

What version do you use? Current Stable(0.9) Or latest snapshot from git repository?

removing database should resolve it!
$ rm `kde4-config --localprefix`/share/apps/bilbo/bilbo.db

No, This error doesn't about lack of package!
It already execute an sql command and get this error!

Could you paste the whole output here or at pastebin!?

It's a bit strange if you already removed the DB and get this :-/

You need Qt4 driver for SQLite databases.
In debian based systems like Kubuntu, you should install libqt4-sql-sqlite package.
