In this tutorial I'll show you how to set up the blog editor in the Flock browser for use with Joomla. This way, you have an even easier way of publishing articles to your Joomla! blog.
IMPORTANT: The Flock browser has been discontinued.
If you haven' already done so, please read this article on how to set up Joomla for use with Flock and other blog editors.
Click the account settings button in the widgets bar of Flock.
Then, choose the "Self-hosted blog" option to start the setup.
You'll be presented with this screen - enter the full URL to your blog.
Click "Next". Flock will now try to detect the settings for your blog.
After a while, you might see this screen:
Click "Next".
This is where you set up your connection. Use the MetaWeblog API.
The XML-RPC URL to your site is http://www.yoursite.com/xmlrpc/index.php
Click "Next"
Enter your Username and Password.
Click "Next"
Now you're ready to start blogging with Flock!
Comment Rules: Critical is fine, but if you're rude, I'll delete your stuff. Please do not put your URL in the comment text unless it's relevant to the post and please use your PERSONAL name, blogger name or initials and not your business name, as the latter comes off like spam. Have fun and thanks for adding to the conversation!
