MSWord 2016 no longer allows MetaWebLog API.

During configuring a new blog, it shows up but does not allow anything to add - the fields are greyed out..so its not possible to configure it using the instructions in the EasyBlog documentation. Thought you guys might want to check this.

Let me know if you want a screen shot.
Hi Dan Cutts,

I've tried to do the remote publishing using microsoft word 2016, seems like it was working fine.

Hi Fadhli,
Yeah, no matter what I do if I pick "other" in MSWord16 Blog Accounts screens (see attached) I cannot add the necessary information. I did work around it, but, something is broken, and this is the second pc I've seen this on... I uploaded the file with screenshots and showing how I "fixed" it.

Thanks,
Dan

Hey Dan,

That was strange, because I tested a few windows PC, it seems work fine.

Currently I am not really sure why when you select "MetaWebLog" option, it will show greyed out.

And I also global search about this similar issue on Google, it seems like no this such of info from the Google.

By the way, thanks for sharing you find out work around using Registry Editor in Windows regarding this issue.
