Thanks to Dougal Campbell, one of the WordPress developers, the latest version of WordPress is now fully compatible with ecto! Thanks, Douglas!
To get this working WordPress version, you will have to get it via CVS. The instructions are on the WordPress download page. Set your ecto account for WordPress to use the MovableType API.
Sorry, Dougal, I fixed it already. And thanks again, for fixing the code!
To use the CVS on a mac, try CVL. Here are instructions for using CVL with Drupal's CVS, which should help you get started.
I am glad to see progress. I just switched from MT to WP and ecto does not work for my anymore (WP 1.0.2), fails with different errors. I hope WP 1.2 or next ecto update will fix this.
I've been testing this out, etco doesn't work with 1.3-alpha-2 either. Is there support coming from ecto? I'd like to try it out.
WordPress fully supports ecto since WP version 1.2. If you cannot get ecto to work with your WP installation, post a message to the ecto support forum and explain exactly what you did and what your ecto settings are.
It is really hard to find instructions on using ecto with wordpress. I have some wordpress blogs and I cannot find a page which tells me what URL for the interface I need to put in in Ecto.
Can we have such a page? (Or at least one that shows up with you type "setting up ecto with wordpress" into google?)
The documentation is inside ecto as well as online. Here's the specific page with the wordpress endpoint:

Actually it's "Dougal", not "Douglas". Common mistake :)
And there are also nightly builds available, for those who don't want to hassle with CVS. Thanks for helping me get things debugged!
