WordPressDash Development Update
I found out today that chattablogs does allow posting via xml-rpc (which is great!), but unfortunately WordPressDash cannot post to it, despite MoveableType and WordPress using the same API.
In other development news, I’ve been working on providing support for posting to multiple categories(because that seems to be a pretty important feature request), but my code is bombing out after the first category is set. There are only 2 reasons this would happen:
- My code is off. Perhaps I’m clearing some variables or not successfully iterating through the full category array.
- Their code is off. Maybe the API will only allow 1 category to be set per post. That would really suck… If that is the case, I might have to get in touch with WordPress to fix this, or offer an altered xmlrpc.php file to complement the widget.

Well, what do you know. My code was off. Apparently, the xml object I was building allowed for an array of categories, which I was not taking advantage of. I now have it posting to multiple categories.

Hey, thanks for developing the WordPressDash widget. It’s really nice.
