Topic: Flickr Images Not Found

Hi,
I have (what I thought) successfully installed and setup the plugin on my WordPress site.
I am running WP 3.0.1 and my gallery.xml's are being created just fine.
In fact the simpleviewer gallery worked the first time I created the gallery, but now all I get is the 'Flickr Images Not Found' error message.
I have my Flicker photos set to Public. I know the username is correct, because if I modify it to something incorrect, it brings back 'Flickr User Not Found'

I have tagged all the photos I want to appear (only 36) in my blog post, and use that tag in the gallery setup in WP.
However, no photos appear only  the 'Flickr Images Not Found'

HELP please!!
Thanks
Alex

Re: Flickr Images Not Found

New tags might take a while to show up in Flickr searches.  Try again in a few hours.
In the meantime, you could try removing the flickrTags line to see if all your Flickr images are displayed.
As an alternative solution, you might like to try using flickrSetId instead.

Thanks Steve.
But is that option only available in the Pro version?

Also - why does SimpleViewer not display the images in the order they are in Flickr?

Re: Flickr Images Not Found

Yes, sorry.  I should have made that clear.  flickrSetId is available in SimpleViewer Pro only.

With regard to the image order, perhaps these FAQs will help.

Re: Flickr Images Not Found

Thanks for the links. I had already organised them in the correct order, and they indeed appear in correct orded on the Flickr 'Set' page for those photos. Yet, simple viewer will still not display in that order?!!! Is there something else I need to set? Thanks again.

No. As per FAQ - General #5 (link above), the images should be sorted by date posted (unless using flickrSort option in SimpleViewer Pro).
