  • Download copy of WordPress 2.6.1 if that’s the version of your WordPress. Unzip the file and you can find the xmlrpc.php file at the root and FTP upload to your installation

    Thank you!
    My WordPress is 2.2.1 would that work?

    Check out the WordPress Release Archive for your version.

    Moderator suggested that I should enable xmlrpc.php file in my Options–Writing Dashboard file. But there is no such option there for turning on xmlrpc.
    Someone else said that his file is missing so I asked the owner of the server where my blog is located to install it and he wrote me:
    “Your xmlrpc.php file is in the blog directory.
    Remote posting is disabled for security reasons since this is a major avenue attackers use to upload malicious files to the server .
    You will need to continue logging in as admin to post to your blog.”

    Does this mean that I cannot configure BlogDesk or Live Writer to prepare post off-line or is there some other way to go over his security blocade?

    To set up this I need my blog ID but wizard cannot find it.
