I never really cared much for livejournal. I've always been a wordpress fan.

To be honest - I finally dropped the livejournal plugin about a month ago - and it was working fine then (though in your scenario it almost sounds like your webserver). Currently to get my content over to my livejournal I'm using ping.fm - ping.fm allowed me to minimize the plugins I was using for crossposting, so it does the work for 85-90% of what I used to do with just using one plugin.

To sign up for the service go to ping.fm - for the wordpress plugin that seems to work best with the service go here - http://www.soldoutactivist.com/pingpressfm

if you have further questions just drop a comment back here or email me at creeva (at) gmail.com - sometimes it may take me a day or so to respond - but I will as soon as I can.

I'm having some trouble getting this to work. When I change my username it reverts back after clicking to save. Further, if I try to publish from my blog to LJ I (using the Crosspost button) get this error:

Something went wrong – -32300 : transport error – could not open socket: 16773096

Any ideas?

I don't use the community string – so I'm not sure I can really help – I do know that the LJ crosspost plugin sometimes stops me from deleting posts on the WP side – but I haven't really dug into why.

Wish I could b more help.

I have been using this plugin successfully to crosspost to a livejournal journal, however, when I attempted to add an LJ community in later, I ran into issues.

I attempted to update the settings with the community name added and received an error saying past dated entries couldn't be posted, which would be okay, except that it removed ALL entries from the regular LJ journal as well. I attempted a test post afterward and the post posted only to the community, but I could not delete it from WP (-302 error preventing me from doing ANYTHING with the post), so I had to disable the plugin, delete the post, and then re-enable the plugin and had to remove the community name from the options in order to repost all the post to the LJ journal.

I would appreciate any insight you might have on how to resolve this issue.
