the plugin has been funcitoning perfectly on our blog since October, then over the weekend (when we last tried using flickrpress) it has stopped working. It says that our API key is invalid, however, when checking our flickr account the key has not changed. I also tried an alternative one and the settings page tells us it is invalid. What could be the reason for this?

thanks

I read somewhere that they can expire in 1 hour if not renewed or handled to do so.

I’m really not sure what is happeing. I’ve tried uninstalling the plugin and re-installing to see if I mucked up the code.

This is my shortcode…

[flickrpress type="photostream" api_key="4c544351f1d3cecba3553b5210d8fdb8" account="lupusqueensland" view="squares" count="10"]

But now I’m getting this error:

wordpress/wp-content/plugins/flickrpress/includes/interface.php:84 (flickrpress_load_items()): Couldn’t get account: Invalid auth token Flickr is currently unavailable.

Tried 2 different app keys now and also different accounts.

I’ve no idea why it just stopped working.

I’m trying to get the shortcode to work inside my footer, everything works on regular pages including slimbox (lightbox like jquery plugin), however the shortcode does nothing in footer besides display the shortcode text.

Thanks

• What setup are you after?
• What is going wrong?
• If there are any, what errors do you see?
• What have you tried?
• What version of Wordpress are you using?

1. I’m not actually sure you can – this comes straight from Flickr. Maybe there’s an option at Flickr? It would be possible to downsize images, but that’s probably not what you had in mind. I”m not sure, I’m afraid
2. The easiest way to do this is via CSS – style the .flickrpress-container .flickr_item_view_squares img elements. Something like: .your-sidebar-classname .flickrpress-container .flickr_item_view_squares img { width: 90px; }, I think. That won’t size up beyond 75px, the size of the squares thumbnail type. If there’s enough request, I could implement more control into the plugin itself.

Great, I’m very pleased you like it! No, I’m afraid there’s not currently a way to show private images; I’ve added it to my to-do list, though, so I’ll work it in when I get time.

Cheers, Michael

Hmm, are you definitely entering the key correctly? It should be the string beside “Key” (not “Secret”) on the http://flickr.com/services/api/keys page. There is no particular configuration needed on the Flickr side, it should just work!

Tried all the permutations listed in these comments, but still can’t get my photo’s to show. Help please!

I have two questions, if I may…

1). How do I change the size of the image loaded on the screen when using lightbox = true

2). How do I make the thumbnail sizes different for the widget vs. page application. (Say I want 150 x 150 images on a page, but only want 90 x 90 images in the sidebar).

Thanks again for making the best flickr plugin out there.

Safe travels.

I really like your plugin, but I seem to be doing something wrong. I can only get the RSS feed option to work. I have a flickr API key and I have tried all the different variations on my email address, flicker ID/username in the widget settings. Are there specific options that need to be set on the flickr API key side. In flickr I see options on the key for visibility and authentication flow, do I need to set these up? Sorry, if this is more of a flickr API key question.

Thanks, Thad
