Does marsedit use xmlpc install#

The flat files are nothing special they have mail like headers for the categories and title, and then body which is just text with some HTML markup allowed. It has one to take a Wordpress XML file and convert it into a bunch of flat files (one for each post) that can be processed later by the build script. Postword is more or less a collection of Ruby scripts. I actually started the project back the last time I got hacked, and even used an early prototype for the blog on Hearts & Tactics. So, being an engineer, I decided to write my own, which I codenamed Postword. There were a couple of solutions that got close, but none that did all that I wanted. In other words, I wanted Wordpress without the Wordpress. Support some version of Wordpress themes, or at least make it easy to port them. Support the Wordpress site/link structure so that it wouldn’t break existing links into the site. It should be able to import all my Wordpress entries It should generate a static site, from flat text files. Little to no code running on the server, with a strong preference for none. Unfortunately I don’t go the Wordpress admin panel every day to check for updates, so I’m routinely out of date.Īll of which to say, I needed something other than Wordpress to get around my update delinquency. It’s not entirely Wordpress’s fault each time my version was out of date, despite Wordpress making updating to the latest version super easy.

No, what prompted this change was my Wordpress install getting hacked for a third time (to inject spam links, of course). Unlike everyone else though I’m not ditching it for performance reasons, because honestly, I don’t get enough traffic to bring down London bridge, which, according to a song I once heard is constantly falling down. At the risk of becoming part of something trendy (which my nerd contract expressly prohibits), I’ve finally ditched Wordpress in favor of static solution.
