  Hi,

  I’m trying to get flickr linked to my blog, I’ve got tons of great photos on there already and I want to blog them!

  I’ve been having trouble off and on actually signing in to flikr and yahoo, although i’m a longstanding user and have only recently been having problems.

  I know this is a forum for help with wordpress, so if there is somewhere else I might be able to get help with this, I am happy to be redirected. i’ve scoured the yahoo homepage and maybe I’m being blind, but i cant find anything like a help button.

  It goes something like this:

  Go to Flickr (the homepage or my photostream)

  Click to sign in.

  Get redirected to yahoo sign in page.

  Enter my (correct) details.

  Click login.

  then EITHER: Page blanks out, says “done” in my status bar, URL says https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?, there is nothing to see on the actual page.

  OR: I am logged in to Yahoo home page, from where I navigate to Flickr from the Yahoo services list…. and find that I am not logged in! So I click log in, go to the yahoo sign in page, and…..off we go again.

  Has this happened to anyone else?

  Could there be something with my computer settings? (though it worked a couple of weeks ago no problems).

  Thanks for any help or suggestions you can make! this is wasting a lot of my time.

  Cheers,

  Alice
