# XML-RPC interface?

 * I’m looking for ‘the full URL of the XML-RPC interface for your blog, which probably
   ends in something like mt-xmlrpc.cgi’ to set up a daily blog posting from del.
   icio.us.
 * I have found: [http://…/WordPress/xmlrpc.php](http://…/WordPress/xmlrpc.php) 
   but that doesn’t seem to be doing the trick.
 * Some help, please!

 * Well – it’s not working – it should post my most recent del.icio.us bookmarks
   each day.
 * Del.icio.us asks for:
 *  * job_name is the name for your posting “thingy”, which can be anything
    * out_name
   is the login name you use for your blog * out_pass is the password you use for
   your blog * out_url is the full URL of the XML-RPC interface for your blog, which
   probably ends in something like mt-xmlrpc.cgi * out_time is the hour (from 0-
   23 in GMT) to post your links at every day * out_blog_id is your blog ID number(
   which is probably 1 if you have only one blog) * out_cat_id is optional: the 
   category ID number in your blog where you’d like to put these posts
 * Maybe I have the wrong blog number – how would I find my ‘blog number’

 * As I recall (and that would be a question for del.icio.us) you just make it up.
   Each blog you add to their thingy has to have a different out_blog_id.
 * Of all those values, there are only 3 that are critical to get right: out_name,
   out_pass, out_url.
 * Have you checked your web server’s error logs? Some hosts block xmlrpc.php access—
   does yours? Have you tested it with something simple like a [Weblog_Client](http://codex.wordpress.org/Weblog_Client)?

 * I have just get up ‘Deepest Sender’ as a weblog client and can post without any
   problems.

 * Handysolo, you mentioned that some hosts block xmlrpc.php access. Looks like 
   mine does. I love using my weblog client. Is there anything I can do about it?
