Hi, I was wondering, is there a way to share media between two blogs? I.e. I have blog A and B… the image is already in Blog A, but if I was working on Blog B, I can’t access that image and have to re-upload it to Blog B in order to have it show up under the list of media I have uploaded. Ideally, I’d like to be able to access the media that have been uploaded in Blog A while working on Blog B.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You can, by opening the two dashboards in two browser windows or tabs.

And please paste the URL of your blog when asking questions here, or link your username to your blog (as explained in the Sticky 8 Things to Know before Posting). We usually need that to give a relevant answer.

Must be missing a step here. There is not a shared Media Library between the two blogs, so…?

@Jennifer: My reply refers to OP’s last phrase – to accessing, not sharing, of course.

I just hotlink. It’s easy, once you have figured out how to grab the URL. You just use the Media uploader and use Add from URL. It doesn’t actually upload the item to that blog, it just hotlinks it.

No items found.
