  For some reason the photos I select to include in my blog will not insert. Everything is fine when I select a photo, put in my caption, size the photo, but when I hit insert only a string of words and symbols appear. I’ve never had any issues with this before. Help. Nancy

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

  We need a directly link to a page or post where this is happening.

  I’m not sure what you need. I haven’t posted the blog yet. The title is Reality Ranching May 2014. Is this what you need? Nancy

  I need the actual link, starting with http, of the published blog post in order to take a look.

  Also, are you uploading the photo or using the insert from URL method of putting it in a post.

  Hi there,
  To insert photos while writing your post you need to click on “Add media”, Upload your photos, and then select the pictures you want to insert in your post.
  I hope this could help and let us know. If not, then contact WordPress.

  Stylishafairs,
  Yes I do all that you said and have never had trouble before. Now instead of putting my photo in my blog I just get a string of words and symbols. Thanks though, Nancy

  Raincoaster,
  I am uploading my photos. Not comfortable with putting my link out there. Thanks though, Nancy
