Flickr Finally intergrates into the Blog

Well after much searching of the internet for solutions to why Flickr wouldn’t integrate with my WordPress blog and trying just about every solution in the book :

Tried moving my blog into the root of my website = Didn’t Work

Tried adding some extra scripting to the xmlrpc.php file = Didnt Work

Tried creating a .htaccess file that would allow the xmlrpc.php file to be seen by Flickr = Didnt work

Contacted my Hosting company asking why the xmlrpc.php file was access denied = Didnt know

Contacted my hosting company again asked same question – Still didn’t know why

Contacted my hosting company yet again and finally got them to admit they didn’t allow the script to be run as earlier versions could be exploited = So still no joy

Finally decided to rename the xlmrpc.php file to another name and point flickr at this file and guess what = It worked

3 days of searching and ringing my Hosting company and I can now finally post from Flickr to WordPress hurrahhhhh 🙂
