[chrisaldrich] [Rose] I know that [kimberlyhirsh] did it a few months back, but I don't remember hearing that she had any issues. [manton] obviously may have some experience with having done it a few times as well.

[manton] I think the issue is when the WordPress post HTML doesn't have any reference to the photo. Usually if you're adding photos in WordPress, the export will also include an `img` tag, etc. But using the Post Kinds plugin the photo posts just have the text for the post, so Micro.blog doesn't know where the photo is.

[chrisaldrich] Where's it hiding GWG?
#
[chrisaldrich] Of course I'm only going anywhere every 2-3 weeks, so I might have to play around with phony data for a bit, or label each room of the house...
#
[chrisaldrich] Is it released or in the github repo?
#
GWG [chrisaldrich]: In the develop branch in GitHub.

[manton] [Rose] I'm looking over another WordPress export, and I do see image data in "attachment" items outside the actual blog posts, with a post_id reference. Does your export have that? If so, I can probably update Micro.blog to support it.

#
[Rose] I don't know! I'll take a look in a minute.
#
GWG [manton]: I might need to make some modifications on the Post Kinds side. They are on my list regardless to improve photo posting.
#
[Rose] [manton] It is in the file! But not inside the item. I replied to the support ticket from yesterday with the excerpt and the whole file for you.
#
[manton] [Rose] Great, thanks! I'll look into it. That seems straightforward to add support for.
#
[Rose] Sure! Enjoy your Sunday though 🙂
#
[manton] Thanks, you too!

[chrisaldrich] I think I'm going to start tinkering away on this today to see how layering on the IndieWeb pieces works out.
