Introduction to Article Manager

Creating & Editing Articles Using Blog Tools

Article Manager also lets you edit your content offline using blog editing tools.

JUSTBLOGIT!

Articles can be automatically created via JustBlogIt! (http://blog.warmbrain.com/justblogit/).

JustBlogIt! is a Mozilla / Firefox extension to allow easy right-click posting to a weblog. From any website your new article is only a right-click away. A new window pops up with an article editing screen all ready for you. Whatever text you've selected on the webpage you were on is automatically pasted into the summary, as well as a link to that page. The title of the webpage is also pasted into the article's title.

You set up JustBlogIt! to access your site by selecting the "Custom" weblog type on the Options Screen, and then entering the following line in the the "Full custom blog post URL" textbox:
http://www.yoursite.com/index.php?module=article&edit=create&title=%TITLE%&summary=%TEXT%&url=%URL%

For security purposes, JustBlogIt! will not log in for you. You must log in to your site before you start using JustBlogIt!.


OTHER BLOGGING TOOLS

Article Manager uses the XML-RPC API specification to communicate with a broad array of offline blog editing tools. Blog entries may now be created via either the MetaWeblog API or Movable Type API.

Because of the limitations of the editing tools currently on the market, only 1-section articles can be created, retrieved or edited.

When setting up your offline blog editor to access your site, use the following string in the "page" field:
/sandbox/index.php?module=article&xmlrpc=1
