    Is it possible to make wordpress display pictures inside comments? I’ve tried uploading pics to my “/images” directory and then linking to them by putting a standard <img> tag in my comment, but it just displays the tag, not the pic. Is it possible to get WP to recognize the HTML tag when it’s simply written into a comment?

    Ideally, I would like to allow visitors to upload small pics and include them in their comments, but I’m trying to tackle this one issue at a time. That should give you some context. Nevertheless, if you happen to have any great ideas for how to design a simple little pop-up upload window that would automatically link the uploaded pics with the comment being posted, that would be good too… but that’s still a little ways off for the momment. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

  • To what Marc said — I’ve got a site where registering is NOT open to anyone, so I don’t think it would be abused by spammers in this case. My site has some 20+ trusted users. Like Slowfinger, I would like them to be able to reply with a picture in their comment.

    I’m not even so concerned about uploading… Even just letting them post a pic from their own website/server/shutterfly would be fine. It’s just this trick of allowing IMG SRC to be used in comments, that I need.

    Is the wp-hacks method still useful under WP2.0.3?
