How does blog configuration detection actually work?
  • Edit
    I have a blog that I'm trying to set up, and ME is not detecting whatever it needs to detect. Can anyone supply information on what precisely is being looked for, and if possible how to add it to a wordpress blog?

    The blog is here: http://www.photosforlife.ca/Blog/

    Hi Mike - by default WordPress blogs include in every blog page a line in the page source that tells how to autoconfigure. For an example, look at my blog:

    http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/

    You can view source and search on "EditURI" to see an example of the tag that should be there.

    On your blog it seems to be missing. I suspect this has something to do with the particular theme you are using, maybe it has somehow caused it to be omitted?

    You could switch themes to a standard default theme, then try to autoconfigure, then switch the theme back. I bet that will work.
