Saves a lot of time

This has a short learning curve. I read through the reviews before installing and saw some people had problems, but mine works fine. There are a few things that may be tripping people up.

1. When you click on the PhotoDropper icon (next to the Media button), it takes you to an overlay. My icon didn’t work at first, and so I deactivated some plugins to see what was causing the hangup, it seems it was a plugin of mine that produced an i-frame. It was one I wasn’t using, so I deactivated it and PhotoDropper worked fine.
2. After clicking the icon, you enter your search term and it fills with Flickr images.
3. Select a picture by clicking on it, then click the “Insert into post” on the left-hand side.

If the picture just says “saving” and doesn’t seem to do anything, X out of the overlay and go to your Media library. The picture will be there. This happened to me the first couple of times I inserted an image.

4. I have always used “sort by interestingness” – it retrieves the best pictures from Flickr.
5. As with all images, you are ultimately responsible for licenses and attributions, and that’s why the plugin gives you the option to “view on flickr.”
