Wordpress Image Post question

Hi - I am desperate for help at this point! I have spent months and months trying to get my membership site to work and I am losing subscribers all the time. At the moment I have now scrapped everything and started from scratch.

The site is a royalty free image site.

I have researched and collected several hundred sites that offer free images for commercial use.

I am trying to add those images to my site in the most time-effective manner possible. I have tried lots of plugins etc. but just can't get it to work and be of value to my subscribers.

I just need to show images from the sites and allow the user click n them and go straight to the site the image came from... full attribution and no sneaky tricks.. it's all upfront that I don't own the source - I am just facilitating the source.

All help much appreciated and anyone who gives suggestions can have a free membership if they like.

Thanks
Dave

  • Sounds like you might need a "scraper" type plug-in. Although many people might say it's not ethical or nice. I see a couple on wordpress.org searching under plug-ins. Sure you could google it as well.

    Just a thought.


  • Just hotlink manually in each post. takes less than a minute
  • If they have hotlink disable then that wont be possible.
  • Sounds like you need a programmer. If you are losing subscribers, you have no time to waste.

    Go to odesk or elance, post a job, hire someone with a good reputation/rating and get it done within a few days.

    If you like them, you will probably find many more things you'll want them to do for you after this problem is fixed.
