I have struggled with inserting pictures before, and Ralph helped me, and it worked until two days ago. Suddenly, my formula didn’t work. Two days ago I had to contact the support desk. Here are four simple steps which are a combination of what I already knew and the new steps she gave me.
Steps:
- Upload your picture to your WP media file.
- Click to edit the picture.
- Click to copy the link in the box on the right hand side.
- Paste the link inside the into your comment box instead of the word link. I have only had it work in the Edit mode of Comment tab, rather than in archives.
Here is a sample.

And voilá!
What is in that box? Could it be Manny? There will be an update on Manny’s travel’s to Spain on Thursday!
Next question: Hi Marsha, I’m wondering if I missed a memo or did I do another stupid thing. I’m referring to why I’m not getting any emails when people post a like on my blog. I get notifications which I don’t have a clue how to use. I do get emails from people who leave comments, but a lot of them leave comments in notifications and not on my email.
Dear Friend, It’s good to use your notifications. Most of my comments come there.
Steps:
- I click the little orange button in the top right hand side of the top bar. That brings down all the notifications.
- Then I click view archives. That way when you reply, your reply doesn’t disappear as it does sometimes if you leave out that step. I always reply from my notifications archives and not my email.
- You can also go to your dashboard and click on the comment icon.
- Press reply or edit, and you can reply without worrying that after you write a long note that you can’t hit the reply button, or you jiggle, and your comment disappears. That has happened to me. GRRRRR
I actually am getting comments from all over now – Facebook, Notifications, Discus, Email, Twitter. I hope I’m not missing anyone! I appreciate comments no matter how they come in. 🙂 Have a great week everyone!

Hi Amy,
I don’t do edits often because I answer from my archives rather than from the comment tab in the dashboard. You can’t edit these little boxes on the Notifications site. 🙂

Oh dear, I’m hopeless with anything new, but I’ve often wondered how people put pics in with comments. Thanks for the tips. I may be too blonde to follow them though. 😀

You may try to be blond, but for you it is a total act! I was blond before I was blond. My best friend’s husband said to me when I had dark brown hair, “You sure don’t look blond, but you ARE!” At that point, I emptied my glass of cold water on his head. That was shocking to everyone for lots of reasons, two of which were that he was a deputy sheriff, and I was the pastor’s wife. 🙂

For the second, when replying to comments on your wp blog, check the “Notify me of follow-up…” and you’ll get the emails showing new comments and what they are replying to.

Yes, and you’ll have tons of emails, but that is a great way to go. I used to do that with some blogs, too, but when someone gets 100s of comments, your email box fills up so fast that GRRRRR. You know, it’s just overwhelming! 🙂 Good to see you Guap. 🙂
