Tomboy to WordPress (ATOM)

If you are a Linux user like I am (Ubuntu is the distro I use), this brief tutorial may be of some help to you. In order to setup Tomboy so it publishes to your  WordPress BLOGS via ATOM do the following:

• Use Synaptic to install the Post note to your blog plugin
• restart Tomboy if it was running so that the plugin loads
• go to your WordPress BLOG
• Open Settings >>Writing and place a check (tick) mark next to the item labeled “Enable the Atom Publishing Protocol.”
• Open Tomboy go to Edit >> Preferences >> Add-Ins >> Tools >> Post note to your BLOG >> Preferences and use your WordPress, URL; your URL should look like http://<blog_url>/wp-app.php/posts

If this does not work you may need to update your .htaccess file.  Mine looks like the following:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
