After I published this post, I recalled something about PHP and WordPress a few months ago. Indeed, I <a href="http://www.nevillehobson.com/2007/02/10/php-issues-and-wordpress/" rel="nofollow">wrote about it</a> at the time! I've been working with DreamHost support as a guinea pig on this issue especially re why WLW won't configure itself for this blog. They've changed something else on the server, but with the result that I now can't post anything to the blog at the moment with any offline editor. Hopefully they'll fix that this weekend. So it's now pressing that I upgrade this blog to the latest WP version. That's in hand along with a refreshed design using a different theme. Up soon, I hope. Yes, see you Tues!

The WLW set up went fine and I've successfully posted to my blog. I haven't applied the fix, so either the WLW issue you had isn't connected to this XML-RPC issue, or the latest version of WP2.2 doesn't have the problem? I'll stop trying to be tech support now - I should stick to what I know really :) Looking forward to seeing/hearing you at DTNP2.0 on Tuesday cheers, sw Hi Neville,

In fact, the issue is <a href="http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4248" rel="nofollow">documented</a> on WordPress support and is a <a href="http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=41293" rel="nofollow">known bug</a>. The workaround mentioned in the WordPress ticket (same as the one I mention in this post) says it's for WP 2.2. The fix clearly works on earlier versions - I'm running 2.0.10 on this blog. Hope dinner was good ;)
