There are several paths to get to the blog setup.

1. When you first start OpenLiveWriter, you are prompted to add an account:
2. Click File - Options - Accounts:
3. Click Home - Account List - Add blog account

First choose the blog type:

In this case Other Services

Click Next

Fill out the below box:

Web address is the webaddress of your blog. It is often http://username.typepad.com/ or can be your custom domain. It is usually the address of your blog's first page.

The userid is your login id for wordpress

The password is your password

If you check the remember your password checkbox, you will not have to enter your password again. Not a good idea on a shared computer.

Click next, and if you have entered in all the above correctly, Open Live Writer will set up your blog.

If you have multiple Typepad blogs, you will be able to select which one you want to set up

You will be asked if you want to download your theme, I suggest that you do.

You will also be asked for a blog nickname, with a suggestion, before finishing.

Click Finish and you are done.
