can't expand thumbnails in posts
-
I uploaded .jpgs to two posts. The thumbnails don’t expand when I click on them. This was never a problem in the past.
Blog url: http://echoesofsobs.wordpress.com/The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The pictures are not linked to their corresponding files.

Scroll down to item 4 to see the picture of the box used for inserting an image. Note the red 5 where it says “link url.” Select “file” so your small image will then open as a full-sized picture.

Thank you.
New question: I chose to discourage search engines from indexing my blog, but I did not choose to make the blog private. So, the blog will still be open to the public if they type the URL in their address bar, right?
-
Yes, that is correct. So if you invite someone to read your blog, they can do so using the URL. They could even bookmark your blog or if you add a subscribe button, get emails whenever you post.

Thanks.
When you suggested I select “File” when uploading images, you meant the “File URL” button, correct? I did that and the images are clickable, but I’m still not getting full-sized images. The images are opening in another window but they’re staying the same size they are in the post.

Yes, but you have this:
http://echoesofsobs.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/img_00011.jpg?w=231This part is calling for an image 231px wide: ?w=231
Delete that and your pic will open full-sized. -
It worked! So, from now on, I’ll make sure I hit the “File URL” button and delete whatever is after the file extension. Thanks, again.

I’m not sure why that width definition was included: usually as you insert a picture it doesn’t do that. So yes, it’s worth noticing.
Also wp usually remembers the settings you used last time you inserted a picture so if you choose the link to be the file url once, next time it will already be selected. But sometimes wp “forgets” or you insert a photo in a different way…
any rate, I’m glad it’s working now!
