First Post From My iPhone

This is my first post from my iPhone. It might have taken a long time, but I finally got around to fixing a long standing error in my WordPress theme that was causing errors with the XML-RPC service (an invalid URL was being generated). There were also some issues related to the WP Super Cache plugin (an exclusion needed to be added for xmlrpc.php).

WordPress for iPhone released

WordPress has released a client for the iPhone. Unfortunately for me, it doesn’t work. Whenever I attempt to add my blog to the client, it immediately proceeds to crash, returning me to my home screen. After repeated restarts of my phone and the application itself, I give up. It would appear that while this application works for everyone else, I’m out of luck when it comes to publishing posts on my blog from my iPhone.

On WordPress and staying up to date

Within the past day I’ve found that two blogs that I manage were hacked using known vulnerabilities in earlier versions of WordPress. Since many others have gone into detailed explanations, such as this, I won’t touch on that here.

What I will say is that is worthwhile to remain diligent when it comes to security upgrades/platform updates for blogging software. No one wants to help the spammers.
