Pinning photos to Pinterest

prospero

I want to pin some of my photos from my site to Pinterest but I can't do this. I have right click disabled so have tried to paste the url of the picture into Pinterest.

However, the picture that is shown has the url of site's main picture and not the specific picture url. The specific picture url gets pasted in but then Pinterest can only read the first bit, not the whole url.

Thanks in advance for help

Have you tried the browser specific plug ins? This one is the one I use for Chrome, and I am easily able to pin all my photos from SmugMug into my Pinterest

I hope this helps!

Thanks for replying. I use Firefox. Is there a plugin for this? What's it called?

Thanks in advance

Here you go! This one should work for your Firefox Browser

Please let me know if you have any questions!

Why can't we use Pinterst's native dialogue boxes to post? I've been considering some mass Pinterst posting, but this would be a problem as I don't want to be tied down to a specific browser.

I just tried to use the firefox plug in linked above, but my SM photos don't show up on Pinterest. Any advice?

Do you have an example of this running on a SM gallery? I'd like to see it in action.

Smurfy,

The plug in I linked to will allow you to pin your photo to Pinterest FROM your SmugMug account. When in your SmugMug, simply click the button in the Bookmark Bar to pin the photo you are currently viewing in your SmugMug site.

Check out the screenshot.
