I recently installed the FLIR plugin for Wordpress. It wasnt very smooth sailing for me, as the text refused to get converted to an image. I read through the installation guide over and over to check if I was missing something, but in vain.

Oh for those who dont know what FLIR is, please read what the author Cory Mawhorter has to say.

You can read the installation guide here.

According to Dan, the author of the plugin, the plugin should work on Wordpress 2.5 or higher, but it didnt work on my site when I had Wordpress 2.5.1. I had to upgrade to 2.6.5 to get FLIR plugin to work on this site.

The rest should be pretty much simple if you follow the installation guide.

Thanks Cory & Dan for this wonderful plugin.
