Hi Don,

I am using metaPost Professional Edition 1.1.11 on DNN 04.08.02 and Blog 03.04.00. My aim is to have all the images dropped in one only folder blog_images under the portal root. To achieve this I've set the blog provider like this:

Blog Provider
Provider Assembly:MetaPostProvider.DNNBlog
Provider Type: ITCrossing.metaPostBlogModuleProvider
Manifest Directory: /DesktopModules/itcMetaPost/manifests/
Manifest Filename: wlwblog.xml
Image Path: blog_images/[FlattenedFilePath]
Footer Template: ...

But what I experience when I add a post with some images is that a subfolder with the post's title is still created for each post (like blog_images/PostTitle_7DC2/imagename.jpg). An example is here. I wonder if I misunderstood something in the image path syntax.

Best regards,
Dario Rossa

Hi Don,

I am sorry, I wasn't able to reproduce the issue. I posted to the demo blog a test post, and it worked perfectly. You can see the result here. The problem then cannot be WLW: I will double check my settings on my installation and try once again. Now I am almost sure I did not correctly set something. Thank you very much for your prompt response!

Best regards,
Dario Rossa.

Hi Don,

I finally found out what I was wrong with. Windows Live Writer and metaPost work perfectly together only if there is not a stupid user like me who sets an ftp connection to upload images. I cannot imagine why I didn't remember that. I'm sorry for making you lose time with this, actually I realize metaPost is perfect. I wish you a good day,

Dario Rossa
