It might be done to control spam, but it means that I can’t post the issues I’m having until later tomorrow night when I’m home from work. I signed up and discovered that accounts are inactive until an admin approves the post. I tried to post a message in the forum explaining what was happening. None of the setting options I’ve tried have worked. I can not post either - I have crashed the program multiple times. I can not download posts from here using MacJournal: nebulous “an unknown communication error has occurred.” Great.

Can’t do it - at least not that I’ve been able to find. I might have one local journal that contains posts I might want on LiveJournal and WordPress.

It would be nice to be able to choose which blog to post an entry to. My configuration files are pretty messy because I’ve had to keep trying different settings. I went through everything to find information.Īnother pet peeve with this program: no option to be able to list all configured blogs and edit them. Depending upon which post you read, WordPress blogs should choose Moveable Type, Atom, or Blogger as the blog type.
#Macjournal manual manual#
A pretty manual is nice, but eye-candy doesn’t resolve issues.Īfter searching through Mariner’s support forums, I found a few isolated pieces of information. I want MEAT in the manual! Give me good procedures, an index, cross-references, and explanations of the more confusing dialogs (like the settings screens… okay, does user mean blog account or FTP account?). So what am I doing wrong?!įor me, this lack of information makes the user documentation useless and frustrating.

Other people on the Mariner Software support forums have said that they were able to get their WP blog to work with MJ without a problem. Unfortunately, if you are using WordPress, no concrete information is available in the documentation. This is great if you are using a blog hosted at LiveJournal. Basically, the user manual included with the software suggests letting MacJournal auto-detect the blog settings. I’ve read all over the net and have yet to find a comprehensive set of instructions for configuring a WP blog to work with MacJournal. I have spent approximately six hours trying to get this software to work with my WordPress blog. Sounded like a great way to have a local backup of the posts and be able to write drafts offline. According to the reviews I had read, MJ works with popular blogging software including WordPress. A friend of my tried it and love it, so I bought it. It’s highly recommended as desktop journaling and blogging software. Mariner Software, the publishers of MacJournal, have a great reputation.
