I successfully posted a picture from Flickr to my WordPress blog directly from Flickr. The picture appeared on my blog nicely formatted. I then edited the posting containing the picture on WordPress and saved it.
If I look at the page now, the posting text is there but only a link to the picture (which works) on Flickr and not the actual picture itself.
Can someone tell me how to fix this? I want the picture to also appear and not just the Flckr link.
Thanks.
That's really weird. I looked at the raw HTML and the image is there. I manually copied the link and the link is correct.
I checked another blog that links to flickr images in the same way and it's working fine.
I have no idea.
I'm having similar problems on my self-hosted blog at the moment. I think Flickr must be having issues.
/me goes to look at Flickr...
It looks like the problem may be browser related (on Windows XP, at least). Internet Explorer renders the Flickr picture OK; Firefox only shows me the link.
The other weird thing is that while IE shows the image OK, the other images which I uploaded direcly into WordPress come across huge in IE; I've been told this might be related to the size of the actual files themselves.
No biggie.
Thank you all for your input.
