We have run into the same challenge. Our post shows up in WP 1.5 but never gets posted. Then we attempt to manually publish but we get a blank 404 page. Same challenge. We’ll be trying other things as well.
I’ve been testing out Blogjet over the past 30 days and haven’t run into this problem.
I’m able to post and publish and everything shows up as expected.
Hi,
This is a WordPress’s bug, which seems to be fixed for the nightly builds. I’m not sure when the next version of WordPress will be released, but it will definitely include the fix.
Best regards,

Well, I don’t know anything about WP, but I think it’s cool that you are working around the problems. A lot of people give up and do nothing. Great idea for a blog too.
So, they released WordPress 1.5.1. Does it fix the problem?
Regarding blogs that do better on search engines – any one (whether wordpress, b2evo etc) that has had mod_rewrite enabled will do better than one that hasn’t. It’s not too difficult to do… provided you’re on apache.
Interesting, I’ll have to visit again to hear your thoughts after using BlogJet with WordPress for an extended period of time.
You are right, I just paid for a Flickr “pro” account after using the free service for few months. It’s the way to go if you like posting pictures, i.e. store your pics in Flickr paste the code onto your posts, there you go. Don’t keep anything with your hosting company serversave the space for downloadable files for your fellas registered users. Beware that Flickr acknowledged a bug in posting from within Flickr to multiple blogs.
I’ve been using [Blogjet](http://www.blogjet.com) quite happily and successfully.
The 404 error could be because you may be trying to post/publish into a category that does not exist in your WordPress site.
After you connect Blogjet to the relevant site, be sure to |Reload| the categories which should show up the categories which exist in your WordPress, and tick the category or categories that you want to post to.
Hope this helps.
