[wp-xmlrpc] Best practise for validating a site connection

[Peter Westwood]

Hi All,

I wonder what you all think is the best way to validate that the url/username/password combo a user has entered in your app is good enough to continue with?

It seems different apps have different ideas.

Some seem to create drafts, some list users blogs, some publish posts!

I wonder if an extra API would be beneficial here - or an extended better version of blogger.getUsersBlogs which gave you info about the capabilities of the user with respect to a site?

Cheers
