  Hi there,

  Perhaps I’m misunderstanding your request. The Pinterest sharing button that is underneath all of your posts will share your individual posts to Pinterest. When users click on the Pinterest post, they will be pointed to your site. Is this what you’re looking for? If not, please explain a bit more!

  I click on my pinterest button to upload my post onto my Pinterest page… and it used to work. However, now it just displays all my images, so only the image is uploaded and when someone on Pinterest clicks on the image, they are no longer sent over to my blog, driving customers to my blog. They only view the image.
  I don’t understand why it changed … how can I change it back?

  Hi there,

  I apologize in the delay. It seems like the Pinterest buttons are working correctly on my side. When I click the “Pin It” button, I’m asked to choose an image to pin to Pinterest. Then, once I select the image, I’m taken to a share page where I can choose what pinboard to pin the post to. After that, the pin is uploaded to Pinterest with a link back to your page. I’ve created a gallery of screenshots to showcase the flow:

  The last image shown here is an example pin on Pinterest:

  

  The link on that pin points back to your site as shown by the URL. Is this what you’re referring to?
