Posting to Wordpress via C#

[Spondishy]

Hi,

I've been digging around the web but haven't found a really good
example of how to create a new post in a wordpress blog.

I've found metaWeblog.newPost discussed in a few places, but I'd like
more info (or a working example if possible). Especially with posting
into specific categories.

Thanks in advance.

WordPress is web based so you send the appropriate HTTP requests.

You can sniff a session between a browser and WordPress so see
what form parameters to send.

And remember to keep sessions state to remember login.

It's even easier than that. Wordpress supports the metaWeblog XML RPC
API, the details of which can be found here:

http://www.xmlrpc.com/metaWeblogApi

To the OP, in order to send these requests, you can use the
HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse classes.
