    Hi thanks for a great plugin.

    I’m having a couple of issues. When I publish a post with an image, it shows up as an external image link on the Tumblr post. If there a way around this?

    The feature image doesn’t show up at all.

    When I delete a post in WordPress it doesn’t delete it from Tumblr.

    Thanks for any help

    Right above the button you pressed to ask this question, a line of text reads:

    Did you include a link to your site, so that others can see the problem?

    Thanks Meitar

    The website is: https://www.ahic.org.uk/blog/

    I’ve just been asked to help out with this site, I didn’t build it so I don’t know much about the template.

    The test posts I created have been deleted but I can easily add another to show the issue.

    Thanks again

    On a technical level, if there’s no problem to see, there’s nothing to debug. Consider reading “How to write a good bug report” to learn how to provide a helpful description of issues.

    Also, on a political/personal level, whoa, WTF kind of site is that? Christian missionaries from Britain in Africa? Sounds like skeezy settler-colonialist exploitation to me. Bluntly, I’m pretty unmotivated to help anyone helping a site like that.

    Thanks for responding Meitar

    I now understand the external image link is a Tumblr issue and nothing to do with your great plugin so I will mark this topic as closed.

    This probably isn’t the best forum to discuss personal opinions but your statement deserves a response. Personally I’m not religious but I do try and respect other peoples faiths.

    Thank you for your concern about colonialism in Africa.
    As you will see from their website, the founder, who was brought up in Sierra Leone, shares your concerns.

    From the home page:
    “Africa has had a bad deal, slave trade, colonisation, caught between the cold war and blatant racism in high places. Yet Africans are strong, intelligent and overcomers despite the hand they have been dealt.”

    The organisation help some of the poorest people in the world deal with economic and health issues. Providing health care for people with Ebola and aids and giving start up money to small business. It’s about Africans helping Africans.

    Oh and thanks for amending your original post.

    Anything with a Christian cross on it is suspect in my book. ??
