    After finally getting the OAuth to work & post a test image post a couple weeks ago, but now it won’t post an image. A standard post will publish, but I get the following when trying to post an image:

    Crossposting to Tumblr failed. Remote service said:
Response code: 400
Response message: Bad Request
Debug output:

  }

    }
  }
}

    Tumblr Crosspostr does not use WordPress’s “Featured Image” for crossposting to Tumblr. As it says in the plugin description:

    The first image, video embed, etcetera that Tumblr Crosspostr detects will be used as the primary media for the Tumblr post type.

    In other words, your post must include at least one <img src="…" alt="" /> HTML element for Tumblr Crosspostr to find.

    For what it’s worth, as of Tumblr Crosspostr version 0.7.19, if there is no <img> in the post body, but there is a Featured Image selected for the post, Tumblr Crosspostr will fall back to using the featured image for crossposting photos in Photo posts.

    Hello, I am using a php code to get the featured image too. As you said Meitar, an img is included in the post, but it won’t get crossposted to the Tumblr. Have any idea?

    There is not enough information in that comment to begin to guess what you are experiencing, much less what is actually not working as expected. Please read “How to write a good bug report” and post again with more detail.

    Hello – I’m having a similar issue…
    I’m pulling posts from Facebook via RSS Multi Importer – then creating posts from them here: https://www.thefrontpagedesignblog.com/category/facebook/

    If you notice the post’s don’t have <img> tags in the content, but they do have featured images as set by the RSS importer

    If you take a peek at my tumblr:
    https://frontpagetumble.tumblr.com/

    you can see none of the featured images have been used for some reason…

    Any idea what could be going on? Or is there a way to just auto include the featured image?

    Thanks!!
