Microsoft Word 2007 comes equipped with a feature that allows you to publish a .docx document as a post on your blog. The setup is quite simple and only requires a few short steps:
1. Open the .docx file that you want to publish as a post on your blog.
2. From the Office Menu Orb, select Publish -> Blog.
3. Select Publish from the Blog Post ribbon.
4. Click the Register an Account button.
5. Select you Blog Provider from the drop-down menu (in my case WordPress) and click Next.
6. Input your Blog Post URL and your blog User Name and Password then click OK.
The open document will now be published as a post on your blog and your blog account is setup for future use in Word 2007.
Microsoft Office 2007 allows you to publish a .docx document to a blog and WordPress is one of the supported blogging systems. However, while attempting to register my blog for publishing with Word 2007, I received the following error:
To resolve this error the XML-RPC option needs to be enabled on your blog. The setting can be found by browsing to Settings -> Writing and ticking the “Enable the WordPress, Movable Type, MetaWeblog and Blogger XML-RPC publishing protocols.” check box.
