June 4th, 2007 I spotted Gary’s post about the next beta release of Windows Live Writer and thought I’d give it a try, since the other one worked well.
Upon launch, it detected all of my previous settings so I went to edit the settings for each of my blogs.
I clicked Weblog -> Edit Weblog Settings… -> Update Account Information -> Next >.
An dialog popped up stating that it had received a “(412) Precondition Failed” error.
After some investigation on Google, I discovered that the “Bad Behavior” plug-in was causing the problem.
On disabling this plug-in, Live Writer was able to update it’s settings properly.
So if you are using WordPress and have “Bad Behavior” enabled, disable it and your problems will go away…
This is exactly what I expected to find out after reading the title Conflict with Live Writer and WordPress. Thanks for informative article
