An Avanade Blogging Community

As stated previously, Avabloggers supports the MetaBlog API – hence community server 1.1 and the MetaBlog snap-in that’s been installed.  I’m a BlogJet user, and while I believe it to be the best available blog post editor out there, it’s still a piece of dung.  It works fine when you give it exactly what it wants configuration wise and throw it no curveballs.  When you set it up and point it to your blog and you don’t configure it perfectly, don’t expect any meaningful error messages. This was especially painful with BlogJet 1.5 before it had official Community Server support.  Version 1.6 has a listing for Community Server, but the error handling it’s much better around the FTP support.  Here are the official steps for configuring BlogJet for Avabloggers along with FTP.
