Blog API

The Blog API module allows your site's users to access and post to their blogs from external blogging clients. External blogging clients are available for a wide range of desktop operating systems, and generally provide a feature-rich graphical environment for creating and editing posts.

Ecto, a blogging client available for both Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows, can be used with Blog API. Blog API also supports Blogger API, MetaWeblog API, and most of the Movable Type API. Blogging clients and other services (e.g. Flickr's "post to blog") that support these APIs may also be compatible.

Select the content types available to external clients on the Blog API settings page. If supported and available, each content type will be displayed as a separate "blog" by the external client.
