 * Hi everybody!
    I’m experiencing some strange behavior with the XMLRPC connection(
   both with WP4.0 as well as 3.9.2). I have two external editors on my mac. One
   is “Marsedit” the other is “Blogo”. Whereas Marsedit manages to connect via XMLRPC
   without any problem the other, Blogo, returns an error “something went wrong 
   with the XML-RPC connection”. Now, their support has not yet found a solution
   and I’m just a user not knowing anything about PHP. I can, however, change some
   files if this would be necessary via FTP and such. Just not knowing what I’m 
   doing 😉
 * I’ve also already tested each and every plugin running, deactivated and reactivated
   each plugin to see if it worked then – no success.
 * Does anybody here have any suggestion what to do? My blog is rather old (www.
   macmaniacs.at) and so is it’s database. I’ve had some troubles with the database
   years ago but recently it worked really well.
 * Any suggestions more than welcome!
 * cheers,
    Holger
