I’ve been noticing a rollout of the new shorter URL’s from YouTube, and I’ve also noticed that they don’t seem to work so well inside Windows Live Writer [v15 [15.4.3508.1109]]… For instance, when I go to YouTube and pull out a video, the URL looks like this…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fehTG17FKLA
And using that URL to insert an image works just fine. But the new short URL from YouTube; it no ‘worky’ as well… or at all.
It seems like an easy enough deal but what if you don’t want to do that? NOW what do you do? What options do you have…
Well here’s one way…
But there are others who would prefer for this not to happen so frequent, or would like to do this every minute— cause you can only do this by minute.
So with the new version, they changed up the GUI and removed options to some settings, but they weren’t removed from the registry.
Regardless of the blogging service [Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, WordPress, Etc.], Windows Live Writer doesn’t change that default font, BUT you can tell Windows Live Writer to use another font when your composing your blog post… essentially overriding the default FONT from the blog.
Windows Live Writer is a fantastic offline blogging tool with a WYSIWYG editor. It interfaces with just about any blog service [Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, WordPress, etc.] If you're a blogger you'll find this tool incredibly helpful- and it's refreshingly free from Microsoft.
Windows Live Writer is simple to use and yet some user still have issues with some of the simplest of functions; possibly because Windows Live Writer has no user manual.
But this is how to edit a published POST or PAGE
