Lars Ingebrigtsen has an interesting post on his EWP his package for publishing blog posts to WordPress. I’m a long term Org2blog user and really like it but, sadly, my host provider, that I’ve been with for many years, no longer supports the necessary protocol.
I was, therefore, interested in Ingebrigtsen’s package. But as far as I can see, it doesn’t support Org mode which is a deal breaker for me. I write everything in Org and have no interest in learning another system. Ingebrigtsen says that the problem with most WordPress publishing apps is that they don’t make it easy to do things like add links, embed videos, and other such matters.
But, of course, Org makes all that easy. I write my blog posts in normal Org mode, convert them to HTML, and paste them into my WordPress portal. It’s not quite as seamless as Org2blog but it’s not too bad. Still, I’d love a system where I could just write in Org and press a button and post to WordPress like I used to be able to do with Org2blog.
If you’re not an Org devotee and want to use WordPress, take a look at Ingebrigtsen’s post. It may be just what you’re looking for.
