Not sure about this but this is a trial upload of photos ... from Flickr ... here goes:

Hmmm ... not sure I have the hang of this.
Back to the drawing board me thinks.

That takes me to your album, but I can't see the share bit.

You need to go into the picture using the bent arrow at the bottom right.

This gives you something like this.
<a data-flickr-embed="true" href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/109558009@N08/50962957017/in/dateposted-public/"; title="20210215_085337"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50962957017_102774d2c6_c.jpg"; width="600" height="800" alt="20210215_085337"></a><script async src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js"; charset="utf-8"></script>

The bit after src= is the file name

Delete the rest and be left with the file name

Highlight that and click on the image icon and voila!

Hope that helps.

Hmmm ... I am not getting anything like that code - all I end up on is a box that has a Facebook, Tumbler, Twitter, Pinterest and then I get a code that now looks like this:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/192185270@N02/shares/023961

But that is because I have made this a public view file now.
I am linking from Camera Roll - should I be trying something else?

Cheers

Well I can see the photos, but flickr is asking for cookies consent etc. I found the easiest route for me at least was to set up a Blog and link photos from that. Works everytime.

This is the blog article Steve: https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/8522091892096565373/5260998967903198376
But I have no idea how I now post photos here from it  :'(

When you get that box up - across the top it has 3 options "Share Embed BBcode" use BBcode to get correct code
