How to keep a new line character in an IFTTT recipe

if-this-then-that

I am using IFTTT.com to watch my Flickr photostream and make a WordPress post. The IFTTT recipe uses:

{{FlickrUrl}}<br>
{{Description}}<br>
<a href="{{FlickrUrlShort}}">via Flickr</a>

The <br> after the {{FlickrUrl}} is not being parsed. I end up with 'br' on the end of the photo URL and the link doesn't work.

For example

http://www.flickr.com/photos/brantwinter/8853319926

is being added to the blog as:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/brantwinter/8853319926br

The br is breaking the URL string

Any help would be appreciated.

So the awesome guys at IFTTT sorted this out for me:

[embed]{{FlickrUrl}}[/embed]<br>
{{Description}}

The [embed] tags were the answer !
