 * I am trying to repair problems with my Flickr and ScribeFire accounts and WordPress.
   I cannot post from either ScribeFire or Flickr to my blog because of the xmlrpc.
   php. I just installed wp-security scan, and changed my login from admin to a 
   more secure username. Is there a connection between the two accounts’ problems
   with xmlrpc.php and the username change? If so what do I do with xmlrpc.php?

 * Hunting for solution for xmlrpc.php issue too – cannot upload images via windows
   live writer probably the same thing. Hoping someone has addressed it but I’ve
   been searching for hours so far and found only unanswered pleas.

 * a related problem, resolved
    When linking into wordpress from flickr, flickr 
   returns an invalid username or password fail. Wordpress needs to have “remote
   publishing by xml-rpc” **enabled** on the dashboard/settings/write page **before**
   trying to make an incoming link! This is disabled by default, and not mentioned
   at the flickr end…
