How-to: Blogging to your YACS CMS using posterous.com

How to send your blog posts to YACS CMS ( yetanothercommunitysystem.com ) from posterous.com:

1) Find a section you want to be able to post to. You can only choose one section.
2) Note its number. You can find out the number easily, as it will be:
http://yourwebsite.com/sections/view.php/###/blahblahblah

The ### - that is the number you want.

3) Edit http://yourwebsite.com/services/describe.php and change the BlogID
in the line for MetaWeblog to that ### number.

Example: If your section was 107 (http://yoursite.com/sections/view.php/107)
Instead of blogID="" it'll say "blogID="107"


4) Now you can set up your YACS website to work with posterous.com!

( If this works, the resulting page also should show up on http://free.naplesplus.us/sections/view.php/107 which is a YACS website which will be proof that this works)
