    Hi,

    i'm using the last version of GD star rating with wordpress 2.8.6.

    It's a really grat plug in, and i would like to conitnue using it but i'm confronted to a fatal issue :

    I can't use my microsoft live writer anymore.

    When i try to open my posts list from my blog in live writer i get this message error:

    La réponse à la méthode metaWeblog.getRecentPosts reçue du serveur de blogs n'est pas valide :

    Invalid response document returned from XmlRpc server

    (It is in french)

    I made some investigation and apparently gd star rating is in conflict with live wirter.
    When i desactivate the plugin, everything is fine.

    So my question is : is there anything i can do, to keep using with live writer?

    Thanks in advance

    I use Live Writer and I have no problems with GD Star Rating. I never had any similar complaint, and I am not sure what can be affecting this. If you can provide the error that is causing this or the XML received to see why is invalid.

    Hi,

    i'm really gratefull for for your fast reply.

    I'll do my best to help you... helping me :)

    Here the best description I can provide:

    When I try to open posts with live writer I get this message in a popup with a red cross on the left:

    La réponse à la méthode metaWeblog.getRecentPosts reçue du serveur de blogs n'est pas valide :

    Invalid response document returned from XmlRpc server

    Strangely this only append when i try to get the list of my web posts. Live writer can get my list of pages just fine.

    When I desactivate the plugin GD star rating, this issue doesn't append anymore.

    Hummm... wait!

    I just made a new test, and it's enven stranger:
    when I tell live writer to grab only 20 posts then it's working!

    So maybe gd star rating is causing an overuse of the xmlserver wich crach when asking for more than 20 posts.

    If you can find a solution, it would be perfect.

    If not, I could live with that. I can use your wonderfull plugin with almost all feature of live wirter.

    Thanks for your time.
    Yann

    For GD Star Rating 2.0 many things will be rewritten and I have planned to add XML-RPC support for reviews, since many people are using XML-RPC powered clients for WordPress blogs.

    And if I find some problems while changing the code of the current release I will include the fix in current stable 1.8 branch.
