Mobile Blogging With WordPress

ByEditor

Mobile networks are finally getting fast enough, and smartphones nimble enough to enable you to do some real stuff on the go. WordPress now has apps for the major players so you can have ready access to your blog away from your computer.

WordPress for Blackberry
The new WordPress app for Blackberry allows you to write posts, upload images, manage comments and more. You’ll need to enable the XML-RPC setting in the Writing submenu of Settings in your WP admin. This allows for remote publishing.

Also handy for mobile bloggers is a way to keep connected to your RSS feeds and Twitter. Viigo for Blackberry is pretty awesome – you can import your Google Reader subscriptions into the app, and Viigo also provides social sharing buttons (Twitter, Delicious, Facebook) for each article – a feature that Google Reader itself could stand to add. And for Twitterholics, UberTwitter is the best Twitter app I have come across as yet for Blackberry.

    Troubleshooting WordPress Issues

    Learn how to handle unexpected WordPress problems, find the source and get your site back online.

    When something goes wrong on your WordPress site, how do you react? Do you freak out, or have a mini panic attack? Don’t worry, that’s a fairly typical reaction from the normal WordPress user 😉 With this post I’d like to change the way you look at and react to WordPress problems 🙂

    With WordPress, as with many things in life, we learn a lot when things aren’t going smoothly; learning to deal with technical problems pushes us out of our comfort zone and forces us to develop new skills and a deeper understanding.

    Much of what I’ve learned in WordPress over the years has happened through things going wrong and me having to figure out how to fix it. Every time you face a problem and learn how to deal with it, your confidence is boosted and your problem-solving toolkit, and resilience, expands. The next time an issue crops up you are better equipped to handle it and you feel less panic.
