Re: an7_flickr

Hi John,

Thanks for your reply, I don’t have a personal API but I see now that I need to edit the installed plug-in rather than the original file, sorry about the confusion.

I’d also like to automatically display a set of recent thumbnails (pulled from Flickr) that then link to the actual Flickr photostream, is this possible or would I be better to use some of Flickr’s ‘sharing’ code? Finally, is it possible to have more than one user?

Thank you for all your help.

Re: an7_flickr

You may need to edit the code, but you should be able to insert Flickr links instead of overlays. It’s been awhile since I worked with this plugin! (it still erroneously inserts %20 instead of spaces… gotta get that fixed sometime…)

No support for multiple users, though that’s something someone could add, I suppose.

I’d recommend getting your own API – it’s not at all hard, and prevents your being affected by any errors with the default (since Flickr sometimes expires or revokes them, if you have control over your own API, it’s easier to deal with).

Re: an7_flickr

No problem, thanks for that info John – I’ll apply for an API and take it from there.

Re: an7_flickr

i dont get it…cant get it to work

if i install everything by default, and put in my own API key in the js_flick.php file, it loads all the images neatly under the write tab, BUT, it’s iaian7’s photostream…with my API key

when I change my flickr username in the plugin settings in anything else than ‘iaian7’, nothing loads??

anybody got an idea why my pics (or others) dont load??

Re: an7_flickr

oops nevermind, it works

It’s not the username like you have in the flickr url, but your actual screen name, which may contain spaces and capitals

thx for another cool plugin Iaian7!

Re: an7_flickr

Is this Plugin still active? Can I download the js_flickr.php file anywhere?
