Then what should I enter as API endpoint if this is the URL of the subblog I want to post photos to:

http://blog.ghanatrot.be/blogs/blog4.php

assuming it use xmlrpc http://blog.ghanatrot.be/blogs/xmlsrv/xmlrpc.php

as an aside, isn't the /blogs/ a smidge redundant in your url? You can easily move your install up a folder ;)

Hi

I have this set up on my blog. I kind of followed this thread:

http://forums.b2evolution.net/viewtopic.php?t=4528

It is quite old now so a little confusing in places. Maybe I should write an updated version.

You will need to select 'BloggerAPI' as the type of blog you need. The endpoint is /xmlsrv/xmlrpc.php so in your case I guess this would be:

http://blog.ghanatrot.be/blogs/xmlsrv/xmlrpc.php

The one thing you have to be careful of is that the default flickr layout for the posts it creates includes css styles. By default b2evo refuses posts with these type of things in so I just created a very basic layout like this:

<title>{photo_title}</title>

<a href="{photo_url}" title="{photo_title}"><img src="{photo_src}"  alt="{photo_title}" /></a>
<br />
<p>
{description}
</p>

If you leave the styles in flickr will report an error but not tell you why.

Always posting at the same time as ¥åßßå but I always come in second :)

Concise wins ;)

Do you mean I can destroy directories:

doc
gettext

and all the files as index.de-DE.html
(for each language)

Question

It would be as I really want it but the installation made it like this.

The only files you need for b2evo to work are the files in the blogs folder.

Yes

It's pretty much as simple as ... delete the above stuff, then copy all files && folders in /blogs/ up a directory, then goto /conf/_basic_config.php and change the line that reads $baseurl = 'http://blog.ghanatrot.be/blogs/'; to read $baseurl = 'http://blog.ghanatrot.be/';

If that doesn't make sense, take a backup before starting ;)

Hi, it worked with MetaWeblogAPI.
There is an error with the selection "Blogger API enabled blog". I told it in the forum there.

Bugger ! And I thought my last reply was pretty concise :D

Not sure why it would have thrown an error with blogger API enabled blog as that is what I have mine set to and it works fine. Glad you got it working though

Me neither, I just struck lucky ;)

Hey sorry, but it was only the Flickr testing that worked.
They send a post which contains no image. When I try to send an image it fails.

I can't try out it with 'Blogger API enabled' as this gives an error message on Flickr.

What template are you using to post through to you blog? I had the same problem when I first tried and it was due to all the css styles in the template. See above for the template I use. Try that one and see if that solves the problem.
