Windows Live Writer is almost used by most of the bloggers as the application to compose and manage posts especially for Wordpress. The features which I like the most are adjusting the size of the images and the way we can structure the post. It also gives a preview of the post as it would look after its been posted along with the sidebar and header images.
It does this as Windows Live Writer downloads the current theme that is used in the blog and presents the content to match with it.
So how to update Windows Live Writer after making changes in the theme so that it would reflect the current theme along with changes?
If you want to update only the weblog Style or the theme, then go to View and Click Update Weblog Style. This will detect if there are any changes in the theme and update them.
Or if you have made any other changes like Password then you can update those information through Weblog -> Edit Weblog Settings.
By chance you are on wordpress. you may want to see wordpress 2.5 The interface is new and a lot more friendly. I have not used writer much, coz i am a mac!
any OS X alternatives?
@bruce, Yeah I have been using Wordpress 2.5 from the week it was released, but I find using Live Writer a whole lot more easier than using Wordpress. I guess there should be some other software like that in Mac
