    Looks like is.gd works as well.

    Thanks for responding…it looks like WordPress shortening works. I tried bit.ly with and without an account/api and it doesn’t shorten either way. I also tried this on a less configured (more plain vanilla blog) and no bit.ly shortening either.

    Any advice?

    I just tried it with Chrome, and the problem persists.

    I can actually come back after a few hours, put up a post with a twitter link, that does embed correctly, and then try again a few hours later and it does not, with no changes to the blog settings.

    Pasting the embed code from twitter.com works fine, so I can use that in the meantime.

    Any other ideas as to what’s going on?

    I’m on Dreamhost with Cloudflare by the way. I put things in developer mode to turn off caching to see if that made a difference, it didn’t.

    Thanks for all the help – I am finding though that sometimes the embeds work, sometimes they don’t.

    Putting an [embed] tag in front just turns the text into a hyperlink.

    Is anyone else having this problem?

    I’ve turned off all plugins and gone to the stock theme and it’s still happening – some posts the embed takes some it doesn’t. Is this a Twitter api problem?

    I can confirm this problem too, starting with WordPress 2.9 or 2.9.1 (the update happened relatively quickly).

    Uploading image via FTP – > No problem, image looks fine
    Uploading via WordPress Flash or Browswer uploader -> Corruption
    Uploading via Ecto (XMLRPC client) -> Corruption

    The corruption I see is identical to that reported above. Also on Dreamhost if this makes a difference.

    Thanks for any assistance. I will use FTP while this is worked out.
