Blackberry Playbook 2.1.2 update: add blogs? stats? read?

    Hi – I manage 3 WordPress.com blogs. The 1.6 version of the BB PB app allowed me to add all 3 blogs and gave me never-fail access. Updates between 1.6 and the current one returned XML and log-in errors, and I couldn’t use the app at all.

    I’ve recently updated my Playbook WordPress app to 2.1.2. It is better than the last version: no more XML errors and log-in failures … however …

    The current update will only allow me to access 1 of my 3 blogs – I couldn’t find an “add blog” option. Is it in the “settings” somewhere, only to be missed by my midlife vision?

    I’ve gone to “settings” and changed the name and password to each of my other blogs, but the only one that the app will recognize is the first one – it won’t allow me to change the blog I’m accessing.

    Is there a specific instruction for configuring the current update so that I can log in to each of the 3? I can’t do separate installations of the app for each of the blogs … (BTW, my iPhone WordPress application does work properly, and I can access all 3 through it.)

    Also … when I access the one blog that the app allows, the statistics report does not coincide with what I’m seeing when I log in via my Google Chrome browser on my laptop. Does the Playbook app access the same statistics information that my laptop accesses?

    I appreciate having WP.com for the blogging, and I’d like to use it a lot more … hope this can be figured out soon.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    There is a separate forum for the blackberry app at http://blackberry.forums.wordpress.org/

    For the iphone wordpress app, you need to inquire over at http://iphone.forums.wordpress.org/

    Actually, just figured out the problem anyway, thanks.

    Would you be kind enough to post how you resolved this issue into this thread? If so then we will have the answer the next time someone else has the same issue.

    Yes, but it’s embarrassing … I forgot that I can access certain options on the PB by swiping from the top frame down … when I did that, the missing “Add Account” option was available. It works properly now, thankfully.

    Nothing wrong with the BB PB WP app for me.

    My problem was a matter of not being sufficiently acquainted with how the PB works.
