Unable to create post tags/categories about python-wordpress-xmlrpc

Sorry about that, the 2.0 release is missing the terms_names configuration. I hope to release an update this weekend that fixes this, but until then you'll have to explicitly use WordPressTerm objects in the post.terms list.

Thanks Max,

I'm trying to do it the way you suggested but still getting an error :

Here is the code:

from wordpress_xmlrpc import *
from wordpress_xmlrpc.methods.taxonomies import *
from wordpress_xmlrpc.methods.posts import *
from wordpress_xmlrpc.methods.users import *
from wordpress_xmlrpc.methods import *

client = Client('http://wordpress.local/xmlrpc.php','admin','pass')

post = WordPressPost()
post.title = 'Post with new tags'
post.content = '...'

tag = WordPressTerm()
tag.taxonomies = 'post_tag'
tag.name = 'My New Tag'
tag.id = client.call(taxonomies.NewTerm(tag))

Here is the error generated:
