Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: 1.5.12 and ectomasquerade, of course you are right — security is important.
I really recognize the big workload and time the devs and volunteers are putting in wordpress and I really, really appreciate their work. I don’t want to criticize the people behind wordpress – nobody is perfect as you pointed out.Try to see it from my point of view:
I wanted to test wordpress and see if it fits my needs. I download the latest release – not a beta release, not a nightly build – an official release.
I install it and try to use Ecto with it and I encounter not one but several bugs that should have been noticed by just trying to post an entry via xmlrpc.That was quite frustrating because otherwise I think WordPress is really a great piece of software 🙂
anyway, I tried the newest patch mentioned above:
The category-bug is fixed, but I still can’t upload images using ecto or marsedit (same problem as described by johnoz).Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: 1.5.12 and ectoThere are still problems with the xmlrpc-file.
I managed to work around the category problem described above by commenting the lines that contain the else-block responsible for the category-behaviour.However, I’m not able to add images using ecto or marsedit.
the file is uploaded correctly, but the data seems to get messed up during decoding. If I try to open the file stored on the server, my graphics-app (GraphicConverter) tells me, that the file is broken and that it does not recognize the file format.
The image is not displayed in browser apps as well (neither firefox nor safari).Don’t get me wrong, but if so much was changed in the rpc-api there should’ve been much more testing prior to releasing this buggy implementation…

In reply to: 1.5.12 and ectohi,
I can confirm that at least updating entries works fine with the patch (updating entries was broken before as well).
