Anybody interested in writing a bit of paid code so that I can moblog directly from flickr to a drupal blog? Works with wordpress and the other popular blog software, but not yet with drupal. The challenge is on... who can make drupal moblog?

This has always worked in Drupal, since we support all the blogging APIs.

1. Turn on blogapi, set it to MovableType or MetaWeblog API
2. Set up as blog in Flickr...select MetaWeblogAPI, use yourdrupalsite.com/xmlrpc.php
3. Done

Hello, I followed your instructions and I keep getting a message username and password do not work. I am using my drupal user name and password to set up a MetaWeblogAPI enabled blog on flickr with the link to my drupal site http://www.mysite.org/xmlrpc.php. Any ideas for a potentional mambo converter?

Forget it... I am definetly a newbie. All I had to do was check the box in Settings-Modules-blogapi. Then it worked fine. This is really cool combined with a flickr account. Perfect for me.

I've set up Flickr to send directly to my Drupal bog. It works fine, except I only get the text and a link to the photo. I'd like to have the photos appear on my site.

Is this possible?

Thanks!

^ It sounds like the Input Format isn't set to Full HTML. Hopefully, you've figured this out by now, 3 years later... haha

I'm having an issue too. It's not posting the blog and I keep getting a message that says "The test post to PBmedia: image failed. Maybe your username and password were wrong?" The login info is right. I've re typed it like 15 times. I even created a non-Admin user, and am having the same problem...
