We have been testing this from our HTC Wildfire bought a few months ago ( Thanks to HTC retail store in Sri Lanka - LankaCell Technologies (PVT) LTD. Address:7A, Charles Circle, Colombo 03  Hotline:0777 778779 )

WordPress on Android device has a wide range of features such as posts, upload photos, and view comments. When editing or creating a new post WordPress for Android allows to format text, set categories, add tags, and even save post as a draft.

For bloggers who run multiple accounts of WordPress, this application allows you to add and manage multiple accounts. Adding a new blog is very easy. You can add your selfhosted blog or a WordPress.com blog. It’s installed via an XML-RPC interface. Make sure you enable or activate XML-RPC under Settings > Writing > Remote Publishing.

When you first log in you are presented with a list of recent entries. Press on any entry will bring up the post options(preview, edit, view, comments) Up top there is a button for adding new entries and for refreshing the list.

Download the application from the Android marketplace and start Blogging as soon as an idea hits your head! no more waiting for a PC (Does this mean the time is close to bid good bye to computers? )

How to Fix WordPress “Plugin does not have a valid header” Error

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

Have you ever got this error while activating a WordPress plugin “Plugin does not have a valid header”. Don’t panic here is a very simple solution that tends to work most of the time.

- The reason why you get this error in WordPress?

The actual plugin files are off the main root files. For example say you downloaded & installed the plugin “Lightbox”, your plugin path and files should be

wp-content/plugins/lightbox

But in case of a “Plugin does not have a valid header” error your plugin path should be someward

wp-content/plugins/lightbox/files

The main files are off the root file as in the example here it’s in a folder called files, where the main files should be inside the lightbox folder not in a sub folder.

- Solution

Use a FTP or by using the Cpanel file manger “move” option, move the files into the main directory. In other way as soon as you open the folder “lightbox” you should find your WordPress plugin files.

Still confused reply to this blog post we’d be happy to assist you
