For the longest time I’ve been trying to figure out how to use my beloved Semagic with a self-hosted WordPress site. Considering how much work I’ve put into it, I’m actually surprised by how easy it is. I love this client for use with LiveJournal and Dreamwidth, and I really didn’t want to have to give up using it for my site.
On the login screen of your Semagic, go to File -> Server settings.
Make sure to include the “www” or you’ll get an error message when you try to post. If your install is on “/blog” or something, where Path is, you want to put “/blog/xmlrpc.php.”
To post images in your posts and have them saved to your wordpress media library, go to Journal -> Pictures -> Select Server. Choose MetaWeblog Api.
Here’s where you can pick up a copy of Semagic: http://semagic.sourceforge.net/index.html.
