Add Support for Future Posting

Closed this issue · 3 comments

Metaweblog supports posting a datetime object of the blog post itself. Support should be added to allow for this.

Would be great if you want to implement that and make a pull request.

When I implemented this I found it difficult to find good documentation about metaweblog api. I added config settings so I could dump the incoming xml post to disk to be able to see the contents and write code to parse it. There are a few example files in the testfiles folder. The new post xml in the samplefiles folder doesn't seem to have a date but maybe the posted content depends to some extent on the capabilities defined in the wlwmanifest.xml
If there is a way to light up more features in OLW that would be great.

Ha! I've been complaining about that for years! I think I have a working example from a previous project that I can borrow.

@joeaudette This is already supported in this project. I see what's happening now. Its in the SimpleContent project. This issue will be closed from cloudscribe.MetaWeblog and moved to cloudscribe.SimpleContent.
