blogilo cannot not connect to any blog site

[humufr]

It is impossilbe to connect to any blog with blogilo. This is reproductible all the time.

Try to add a blog (wordpress or blogspot) and there are always the same answer:

"check your internet connection"

Funny but a little bit annoying!

A bug in the KDE bugzilla has been open.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=283318

As it is this software is completely broken.

I forgot to tell that the problem exist in package from the ppa (kde 4.8.2 for 11.10) and also in the beta2 for 12.04

Follow the advice on this site:
http://nvnsolution.blogspot.in/2012/02/how-to-manually-configure-blogilo-blog.html

remove the existing account you may have used or tried with first. I eventually managed to get it working.

To Blogilo devs: the manual is SOMEWHAT outdated, the forum does not exist, neither the wiki
