  I having trouble with my photo uploads. As the title suggests, the first image is fine but the subsequent photos don’t show up on the post. On top of that the captions I have in the subsequent images all merge into the one on the first. HELP!!! (please?)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  May I add that the problem can be seen in the latest post only.

  There’s two ways to insert photos: upload the lot from the “add media” button in your Post and insert them one by one into your Post, you have to insert each one separately, or use the Gallery tab in the Image Uploader to insert the entire lot into your Post as a “Gallery”. This will show thumbnail images and then your visitors can click on the thumbnail to see the larger image.

  Thanks for the reply. I upload from the “add media” button and have never had trouble until about a week ago. I haven’t done anything differently.

  I’ve just gone in to edit the post (again!). I uploaded the second image again. It looked fine on the preview but once I hit “Update Post” and go to view it, the problem persists.

  I’ve tried uploading the image again. This time, I placed it at the top of the post then dragged it down under the first image and it seems to have worked.

  I am obviously doing something wrong although nothing different to what I used to do when it all worked well. Would appreciate if someone could solve this one.

  Thanks!

  but once I hit “Update Post” and go to view it…

  Are you letting the Visual Editor window complete the Update Post/Save before you click on the Preview Post button?

  You need to make sure all of your pictures have unique names. Someone reported this a few days ago, and it turned out he was uploading many pictures with the same name.

  Thanks Raincoaster. Yep, they all have unique names.

  The instructions I have for uploading (or inserting) an image are for previous versions of WordPress. I need step-by-step instructions for WordPress 2.7 in terms of (1) Insertedit embedded media icon and (2) Media button on the dashboard. I’ve tried to get an image from a website and also upload one from my own hard-drive. Nothing’s working. Thanks.
