Using MS Word to create the blog.
-
I have windows 10 Professional and I would like to use Word to create the blog and post. I am having difficulty getting word to find my blog in WordPress. I can copy and paste from MS Word to WordPress but I am under the impression I can post from MS Word. Can you help me with how to set that up?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi mwhessel, happy to help you out here!
To start writing a blog post in Word, follow these steps:
1. Go to File and then New.
2. Search for a template called Blog Post.
3. Word will prompt you to Register a blog account. Follow the steps to set up with WordPress.
4. Begin writing your post and adding media.Once you’ve finished writing your post, select Publish in the top left corner to send your post to WordPress.
And that’s it! Let me know if you run into any difficulty along the way.

Hi there, hope you don’t mind me adding to what staff-brock has already mentioned. Versions of MS Word 2007 and later can be connected via XML-RPC to upload posts directly to your WordPressdotcom site.
Here’s more on that.
