How to use lekhonee-gnome for multiple blogs with the same wordpress account ?

Friday, June 11th, 2010 | Community, News | No Comments

I was looking into this feature request yesterday, good news is lekhonee-gnome already supports this. Lets say your wordpress username is foobar.

So, in the accounts in Preferences window you add the first account with your username and password and Wordpress as service. 
Then add another account with same username and password but service as other and type the full url of your 2nd blog following /xmlrpc.php (example: http://secondblog.wordpress.org/xmlrpc.php). 
Now you can access both the blogs from lekhonee-gnome

FAD PUNE 2010

Monday, May 31st, 2010 | Community, FOSS, Fedora, News, OLPC | 1 Comment

So this weekend we had FAD Pune 2010. Being organizer the main issue was to get inside the office before everyone else :)

Among the things done:
  • Packaged accessx ( with help from Sayamindu to patch it for Fedora)
  • Updated code in Pony so that it works with new flickrapi API (committed but not pushed yet)
  • Now we have cover images in Pathagar , the digital library system.
  • Helped people with packaging
Yesterday in the last hours almost everyone were busy with packaging and helping each other. Had fun with all other contributors for 2 days, now getting back to the normal routine. Photos will come up later this week. I also recorded Sayamindu’s talk on OLPC as a downstream of Fedora project, you can view it here (111MB).

lekhonee-gnome 0.9.1 is released

Thursday, April 29th, 2010 | Community, FOSS, News | 1 Comment

I am happy to announce the release of lekhonee-gnome 0.9.1 . You can download the source or check for koji builds for F12 or F13. New features are like:

  • Supports multiple Wordpress accounts
  • Tabbed UI for different modes
  • Now supports adding <br> tag using tool button
  • Preview mode (more details on this below)
  • Advertisement message is disabled for this release
  • Stopped segfault(s) in couple of corner cases
  • Supports <video> and <audio> tags in Visual and preview mode (you may have to write the details in HTML mode)
  • Can watch youtube videos in Preview mode (not an actual feature :p )

So the main two new features are multiple account handling and Preview mode. In the preview mode you can see how the post will look like in your blog with the theme you are having. To fetch the blog style please click on the small download style/theme button in the toolbar (this button will only come in the toolbar if you don’t have cached theme downloaded in your system), though you need internet connection for this mode to work.
