You mention “MovableType API” in the list of your blog settings in your Writely account.
This isn’t MovableType. It’s WordPress.

The Writely.Com documentation states that WordPress users should pick MovableType API. I just did as I was told.

FYI – I tested the connection again after disabling all plugins on my blog. It didn’t work.
A friend of mine is having this same problem and we’re trying to chase down the solution.
For what it’s worth, we also tried switching over to the metaweblog api, and it still doesn’t work. All other settings are according to directions from writely.com.
Has wordpress changed the api to such an extent that it is now incompatible with writely? Or is there something we can change ourselves to make posting via writely work with wordpress?
Yeah I have my hosting provider check on this and it was that they had
a a mod_security rule that prohibits
“!(^application/x-www-form-urlencoded$|^multipart/form-data;)” at
HEADER(“Content-Type”)
Once they changed that, all is well.
You guys check with your host?
I couldn’t do it either. I am using bluehost. would the host matter?
I run WordPress on a godaddy server (Thanks samboll for the help, you rock!) but back to the comment at hand, I’m able to use the MovableType API on Writely and upload to WordPress without a problem.
So, this confirms that the latest version (which I have installed) supports the MovableType API/Writely mode of transference to your WordPress blog.

I can’t get it to work with bluehost either. I called them and they couldn’t help.
