Hi

In the installation guide it says I should login as admin to my wordpress blog. Then go to Settings -> Write and enable XML-RPC for remote posting. The problem is that I don't find that setting. I'm using the latest version of wordpress. How does I enabled it then? Maybe it is enabled by default?

    It should be in every Wordpress install, and no, as far as I know it is never set to on by default.

    Click on Settings.
    Then Click on Writing.

    Half-way down the page you should see a heading called "Remote Publishing".

    The second item is XML-RPC. That is what you need to check.

    Hey, Tom thank you for helping me

    I found the setting on my wordpress blog. That is site on which I installed wordpress on. The installation guide recommend setting up a few of these blogs, just so then I thought it would be better to sign up for free wordpress blogs hosted by wordpress.com (no need to register domains). This is what I tryed (when I didn't see the xml-rpc option). But there I cannot see the remote posting option. All the options I see are:
    * Writing Settings
    * Press this
    * Post by Email
