  URL: equilibriumsands.wordpress.com
  Client: Semagic 1.7.8.1U
  Server Settings in Semagic:
  Server: wordpress.com
  Port: 80
  Path: /xmlrpc.php
  API: Metaweblog
  Encoding: UTF-8

  What works: Can log in and create post
  What doesn’t work: When trying to post, returns Error 401: “Sorry, you are not allowed to publish posts to this site.”
  (At least it’s polite?)

  What is wrong here? Everything is set up correctly according to the few sources I found for using Semagic with WordPress.

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

  You if need to contact Staff. Here’s the link http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/ After you use the searchbox at the bottom of the page there will be a section that says “Have you found the answer to your question?” You can choose either “Yes I found the answer to my question.” or “No I didn’t find the answer to my question and I would like to contact support for help.” The no option will reveal the contact form.

  You can also contact the semagic people. It might be that their editor does not yet support the latest version of wordpress (3.2) which is used here.
