Serendipity to msn spaces

Post by asp »

Apologies if this has been asked previously, I did search but it was fruitless.

I am looking for a way to post to msn spaces from serendipity. So that when a new entry is made a corresponding entry is made on msn spaces.

Is there a plugin for this? I searched, and there appears to be one for myspace/ live journal but not msn spaces.

Cheers!

Hi!

Does MSN Spaces have a XML-RPC or other Posting API? Last time I checked they didn't seem to, so posting would not really work without some sort of API :)

Best regards,

Hi Gavin,

Thanks for the reply, appears they do :)

I don't really know how to use xmlrpc, I guess I'll have to learn :)

They also support posting via email. I remember i wrote a quick and dirty hack for bblog that simply sent an email at the time of the entry.

Hi!

Hey, that'S good news! In fact the ljupdate s9y plugin already supports a target "s9y". This is a bit misleading though, as it simlply is the XML-RPC posting used. Just configure the server and username/password as indicated in the URL you gave and it should work?

Best regards,
Garvin
