Breaking News… 21st Feb 2019

Open LiveWriter and Blogger are once again talking to one another

A blessed miracle!

Almost. Photographs won’t post.

This was better than last week when NOTHING would post.

  1. I got all excited then thinking I'd be able to post 'normally' again. But, no. It's still going to be a daily battle with the photos.

    Do you know if Google has acknowledged the problem? My searches on the subject are not proving fruitful.

    1. I received a reply from them, curtly telly me that Open LiveWriter wasn't their baby and so it was nothing to do with them.
      I pointed out that Open LiveWriter hadn't changed, so it MUST be a Google / Blogger change.
      I then asked them to talk to the Open LiveWriter team - I've not heard anything since.

    2. Today I found this statement against the latest update to the Bloggeroid App:
      "Removed possibility to add images, sadly Picasa API was disabled, and Photos API does not allow publishing images which will be embed in other web pages."

      In doing that, I also came across the Blogger Pro Free App, which I hadn't seen before, complete with reviews saying it still works with photos. Yay! I have regained the ability to post photos without having to do battle with the Blogger Dashboard!
