Hi,
thank you for your help. Please have a look at my last post (Update 2), there I've wrote that I solved the problem in the way that I must use my screenname not my acountname in the modul configuration. But I've noticed that the gallery modul is to slow for my usefulness and because of that I will use the "another gallery modul".

But even perhaps thank you for your help.

spawnferkel,

Thanks for posting it was supposed to be your screenname and not your account name. I was having this problem and it was driving me mad. This one thing fixed it.

Perhaps it could be clearer in the actual module?

Hi, I'm using this great module and would like to change the layout of the output. First I want change the position of the Nav-Images from the bottom to the right, like it is made on the first site shown as example in this thread. Second I would like to see on first site of the output a table with more than 1 photo in some rows and columns. Where can I make these changes? In view.php? I think so, but the file ist big, what do I have to change?

Can anyone help or are somwhere example templates to download? That would be perfect! Thanks for help.

Hi, thanks for this great module.

Anyway I would like to ask you if it is possibile to use it for a flickr group instead of a flickr user, could you do that?

Thanks.

Hi there!

I've been trying for days to get this module to work, but what ever I do, I get the following message:

"Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /www/110mb.com/m/s/a/l/o/e/n/_/msaloen/htdocs/modules/flickrgallery/view.php on line 150

Warning: The photosetname provided does not exist for this username. Please correct the groupname."

...even though I have double checked both my username and setname.

Any ideas on how I can solve this problem? I'd really, really appreciate it!

Ps: Here's the link: http://msaloen.110mb.com/pages/photo.php.

I've just installed v1.40 RC2 - which my first try of this excellent idea. I got an API, no problems and I have a Flickr "pro" (paid) account with many sets.

I filled in the API Key and user id, plus a Set name in the Flickr module page, but I get the following message:

Warning: The photosetname provided does not exist for this username. Please correct the groupname.

Now I know that the user name and set name are both correct. I ran the Execute Rebuild command with no errors. What is the problem? And what is "groupname"?

This promises to be a super cool module, so I really hope I can get it to work, with your kind help

Thnx.

Like many others, i had some problems using this module.
After a bit of testing with the phpFlickr php-wrapper (see http://www.phpflickr.com) which is used in this module, i found out that you must not use your id, nor your screen name (flickr.com/photos/<yourname>), but your user name.

After taken this (to me less obvious) hurdle i still didn't get any sets.
Then I found out that you have not only have to set your flickr permissions to public, but also to set the flickr safety filter to "safe" instead of "moderate" or "restricted".

Hope this helps some of you struggling out there!
Greetz,
Bueno

I just upgraded from WB 2.7.0 to 2.8.0.
I had flickr gallery v 1.1 installed and it didn't work properly. The images weren't showing up.
I downloaded v 1.4RC2 and things look much better.
At first, there was a huge gap from the top of the page to where the first image gallery started.
I fixed this, by changing the CSS for .flickr_set from "clear: both;" to "float: left;"

The one problem I notice is that when I hit save, I get the message

"Although the Flickr Groupname field is not required I recommand you to fill this field."

I don't see Groupname anywhere in the settings.

[bikerider]

I still don't get it...
Still got the "Warning: The photosetname provided does not exist for this username. Please correct the groupname." problem.

My settings on 1.4RC2:
API: 80ea12aaedae79461f6 0e2...
Benutzer ID: Name shown on top in flickr when I'm logged in (eg. maschenstrukturen)
Bilderset: eg. 72157623869145348

I think this should be perfectly correct...? Why do I still get this error? The only thing that could be wrong is the Benutzer ID - where do I get the correct one?

thank you for your help...! 

[bueno]

I think by "Bilderset" you mean the photo set name.
My guess is that this set name has to be the string name of the photoset, not the id you mention.
This module assumes that the photos to be shown are in a set.
So for instance, if you've uploaded photos of cows, but did not place them in a particular set, they won't be shown.
You have to create a set called e.g. "cows"  and fill in "cows" in the WB-field called "set name".

HTH,
Bueno

[bikerider]

great, that's it - was a bit too easy...

again for all:

Flickr API Schlüssel eingeben:  7bbf701abd90cc9c238 c817xxxxxx   
Flickr Benutzer ID eingeben: URL: http://www.flickr.com/photos/maschenstrukturen... -> maschenstrukturen
Flickr Bilderset Namen eingeben: Treppengeländer Privat - and not the Set-ID

Thank you!
 

[bueno]

I'm afraid that's not entirely true.

Flickr Benutzer ID eingeben: URL: http://www.flickr.com/photos/maschenstrukturen... -> maschenstrukturen

In your case it doesn't matter, but if your user name consists of 2 parts, eg John Doe, it's not correct.
The url might be http://www.flickr.com/photos/johndoe, but the user name is probably "john doe"
See my earlier post on this page.

Have fun using this module!

[bikerider]

i will - thank you! 

[bueno]

I've encountered a strange problem: I'm trying to show a photoset of 900 pictures, but the module only shows 500 pictures.
viewing the set on the flickr-website does not have this problem.
I tried to rebuild the cache, but this brought my shared webserver down .
Anyone any ideas?

[ixnay]

This sounds excellent. I have installed it and theoretically linked to a set on my new Flickr account but it does not connect:

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator to inform of the time the error occurred and of anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

I have looked at this and this is all I could get:

Any ideas? I would love this to work.
