I'm having a problem with the crossposter.

The crossposter has a few common problems.

  • Entry security is confusing when you edit entries. If the site you crosspost to has a higher default security than Dreamwidth, the crossposter will respect this. Editing the entry on Dreamwidth causes the crossposted entry to be edited as well, but changes its security to be the same as on Dreamwith. This could make crossposted Access Only or filtered entries on other sites public or unfiltered. We're working on a fix for this.
  • Incorrect password messages. Some browsers automatically fill in a password that you've used before. Your browser might be filling in your Dreamwidth password for your account on another site. This makes your crosspost fail and you'll get an incorrect password message. Make sure you type the password in yourself when you crosspost entries. If you prefer, you can save your password on the Other Sites section of the Account Settings page.
  • You have changed your username on the other site. If you rename your account on another site, you will need to update your crosspost settings.
