  How can I paste a photo or video into a comment reply? I tried to do this today on my blogs most recent post, but it only shows the link to the web site but not the added picture I tried to put in.

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

  Hi. As far as I know, you can’t put a picture in a comment reply, but you can put a YouTube video:

  The administrator of a blog can post images in comments on his own blog, in just the same way an image would be added to a post.

  If you are the admin, you can also edit your readers’ comments so that an image will appear.

  YouTube (and probably other) videos will appear in comments with an http:// link.

  I have seen others put pictures in the comment box of blogs not their own. I did get a pic into one of my own comment threads. But I felt like I didn’t know what I was doing. It doesnt seem to be mentioned in any tutorials that I could find.
  Thanks for the help both of you. I’ll watch that embed video tutorial.

  @1tess OMG tess, I just clicked your name for curiosity… WOW I LOVE your blog! I have been teaching myself Japanese cooking. What good fortune for me to find you.

  Those are not WordPress.COM blogs, though.
