These instructions below are only necessary if Flock doesn't automatically configure your blog the first time around.
You can check your blog by following these steps:
1.Look at the HTML source of the front page of your blog
2.Find the line that looks like this:
<link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href="http://
3.Look at the rsd file itself. You will find in each line the attribute apiLink
that points to something like: http://
4.Make sure that file is there, with the correct rights. (that means at least 644, it must be readable by everyone).
For example, with a Wordpress blogs, this file is in the root of your blog. If your blog is http://www.example.com, then you xmlrpc file will usually be http://www.example.com/xmlrpc.php.
OR
If you're using Wordpress, and your blog is at http://mydomain.com, open http://mydomain.com/xmlrpc.php in your browser, and you should see a message like:
“XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only. “
This means that you have found the location of xmlrpc, and you would put http://mydomain.com/ as your blog location(Flock requires xmlrpc to be present and usable for self hosted blogs).
Note: xmlrpc.php is disabled in wordpress 2.6+. To enable it (and be able to use flock to post to this blog), change the setting in here:
