    When linking into wordpress from flickr, flickr returns an invalid username or password fail.
    Wordpress needs to have “remote publishing by xml-rpc” enabled on the dashboard/settings/write page before trying to make an incoming link! This is disabled by default, and not mentioned at the flickr end…

    When I post from flicker I only see the plain code posted with tags etc. No normal picture :/

    I am have that issue… when I try to post this is what I get:

    I’m having the same problem… how did you resolve this????

    After many weeks of searching I found a solution that works for me. I found this plug in that fixes the issue:

    Turns out that WordPress and libxml2 aren’t playing well together: the blame seems to be on libxml2
