In reply to: ID= removed by urlinator?It’s from the sanitize_html_attributes() function in b2-include/b2functions.php. That function does global replacements, instead of trying to ensure that it only affects attributes on HTML tags.

In reply to: XML-RPC callsThe categories member of the content struct is an array. WordPress currently only supports one category per post, so you will need an array with just one element. The actual element itself should be the name of the category.
