Microsoft Word will allow you to place a blog post to Word Press is the blog server is configured to receive the blog post and if you have a valid username and password in order to make those posts.
On our Web server, the technology department has established this on three blog servers.
We will be in touch with each person to provide you with your appropriate username/password and blog location.
In order to make this connection happen, you will need the following:
- Username:
- Password:
- URL to blog site:
Once you have these items, perform the following to establish your blog posting account.
Note: You will only have to establish your account the first time you make a connection. From that point on, Word will store your username and password for you; however, it is a good idea to keep this information someplace in case your computer has to be reloaded.
- Open Word and select File/New
- Select New Blog Post
- Click on Mange Accounts

- Click Next
- Enter the URL to the blog site (provided by the technology department)

From this point on, anytime you wish to publish a new blog post, your account will be configured and you can just type your message, select a category, and click publish when you are done.
