    106 <ul> 
    107     <li>Server: <code>http://example.com/</code> (some tools will just want the 'example.com' hostname part)</li> 
    108     <li>Path: <code>/me/xmlrpc.php</code></li> 
    109     <li>complete URL (just in case): <code>http://example.com/me/xmlrpc.php</code></li>

    111100<h1>Post via Email</h1> 
    112101<p>You can post from an email client! To set this up go to your &quot;Writing&quot; options screen and fill in the connection details for your secret POP3 account. Then you need to set up <code>wp-mail.php</code> to execute periodically to check the mailbox for new posts. You can do it with Cron-jobs, or if your host doesn't support it you can look into the various website-monitoring services, and make them check your <code>wp-mail.php</code> URL. </p>

    127     <li>WordPress now has a robust plugin API that makes extending the code easy. If you are a developer interested in utilizing this see the documentation in the wiki. In most all cases you shouldn't modify any of the core code.</li>

     119<h1>Share the Love</h1> 
     120<p>WordPress has no multi-million dollar marketing campaign or celebrity sponsors, but we do have something even better&#8212;you. If you enjoy WordPress please consider telling a friend, setting it up for someone less knowledgable than yourself, or writing the author of a media article that overlooks us.</p>
