Filling your info

Use the menu preferences (or press CMD+SEMICOLON, or press the round button next to the spining bar) and insert your username, password and xmlrpc engine... when you close de drawer, by pressing the round button, or activating cmd+; or the preferences menu, it updates your info.

I don't know my XML-RPC Engine...
Well, if you use blogger (which means you own a blogger account, it's free) just press "Use Blogger" button and it will fill the xmlrpc engine correctly. If you use another solution, like GrayMatter, or B2, please consult their documentation on Blogger API Interface.

Press the "Test BlogWorks" button on the preferences drawer, it will fill a demo account that you can use to try the program and see if it suits you.

A Blast from the clipboard
By pressing and holding the BlogWorkz icon in the dock you'll invoke a handfull menu with many features. One of them is post from clipboard. Just select in the weblogs popup your favorite blog, keep using other apps, when you want to post something, just send it to the clipboard, then select post from the clipboard from the dockmenu. It's straighforward, post to your blog without even switching to BlogWorkz. An example? imagine, you surfing the web with Apple Safari, found some quote you like, select it with the mouse, copy it, then without leaving Safari, invoke the dockmenu from BlogWorks and select post from clipboard, snap, it's posted.... never leave your apps again!

Stay Up to Date
