   I have downloaded and installed the Flickr Auto Poster plugin. I noticed that the documentation states that the plugin checks for new images every five minutes. If an image is found, when does it get posted? In the same five minute window?

   I ask because immediately after getting the plugin installed I uploaded a photo to Flickr. It's been over an hour now and that image has still not been posted.

   @danapalooza Hello. Can you show me your settings? I will check what happen. It must post pictures immediately if it found it.

   @danapalooza Or maybe you not set your time zone in wordpress settings.

   Good call. I changed my time zone settings.

   If that works, how far back into my photostream will the plugin go?

   At first time it trying to get all photos. Then from the last upload date.
   Check your posts at admin's page. If you have unpublished posts with future dates, you need to remove it. Then reactivate plugin, and fill all settings again. That can be if the time zone was not set up before plugin's first run.

   Thanks for all of your help so far.

   I double-checked my time zone and It is correct but I went ahead and deactivated and then reactivated the plugin. I reentered all of my info. We'll see what happens.

    So, by "username" do you mean the name in the URL structure of my photos...

    http://www.flickr.com/photos/danapalooza/

    ...or my Yahoo username...

    danapalooza@ymail.com?

    Or is it my screen name, which is simply "Daniel Markham"?

    Thanks.

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin as well. Still no luck.

    I'm going to contact my host as well.

    I contacted my host. There is nothing running on my site that is creating any errors. I gave them the URL to your plugin and they stated that it was not obvious to them how it worked. So nothing to report on that end.

    For what it's worth, I seem to be having the same problem and have tried the suggestions. If I have time will try to do a bit of debugging.

    OK. I've updated and reactivated the plugin and will report back on weather it is working or not.

    Thanks!
