Managing your blog from an iPhone/iPod Touch

Before you begin, you need to turn on XML-RPC, which is a protocol for other programs to plug into your blog. Do this by going to http://ra.tapor.ualberta.ca/~dayofdh/{your blog name}/wp-admin/options-writing.php and checking the "XML-RPC" option.

Next, go to the App store and download the free "Wordpress" app.

In the app, select "Add another blog..." and fill in the following options:

Blog URL: ra.tapor.ualberta.ca/~dayofdh2011/{your blog name} User Name: {your user name} Password: {your password}

That's it!
