Quite new to Lightroom, so I may well be doing something completely stupid here, but I do not appear to be able to add any photos to Flickr - at least, not to the photostream. I successfully managed it once, since then - nothing. Any ideas? Just to add a bit to that - I CAN add new photos, providing I create a new photoset. If I just try and add them to the stream, nothing doing.

I've always found it a bit clunky, and never really mastered it.

From memory, you can drag and drop individual photos to the flickr photostream from the library index page, and then you have to click publish to actually upload.

That's exactly it... If you double click on the flickr logo you can alter the settings for the pics you upload

That's the bit that has stopped working! It worked once - literally, once. Since then, nadda. I tried deleting the photo's in the photostream collection earlier to see if that would help, only it just deleted them off flickr LOL, d'oh.

Delete the 'publish service' by right clicking on the Flickr tab then set it back up again. Occasionally Lightroom throws a wobbler and mucks everything up.

I didn't get on with the built in publish service, I found Jeffrey's Flickr Plugin to be much better.
