 * Hello:
    I have this url after selecting an image called images:** [http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/images.jpg](http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/images.jpg)**
   but I always get the following message: “please enter a valid URL” when I click
   the save changes button
 * I don’t know exactly what I’m doing wrong.
 * Can you give me some advice to solve this problem? I am stagnated.
 * Thank you.

 * Hi,
 * Sorry for inconvenience but plugin checks a valid url format and does not treat
   [http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/images.jpg](http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/images.jpg)
   as valid.
 * I check this just to prevent users not to enter any junk value and its repercussion
   is that it applies to localhost too.
 * I’m sure you must be testing it before going on live and believe me it would 
   work fine on hosted domain. I can though plan to include code fix which would
   allow localhost atleast.
 * Regards,
    Nitesh

 * I have the same problem, though I’m already live and using a subscriber account
   to test it.
 * What du I do?
