Flickr photoset not will not link

Postby jmurray1024 » 18 Jun 2012, 14:08

I have two questions.

First, I noticed that if I have public and private pictures in the same photoset and if I use privacy filter 5. Can not view public pictures. Is this OK to use more then one privacy filter like sample below? Giving access to Public, Friends and Private pictures.
[gallery type='flickr' user_id='xxx' view='photosets' photoset_id='xxx' tag_mode='any' sort='date-posted-desc' privacy_filter='125']

Second, I have at lest one person who has successfully linked their account with my Flickr and can see all the private pictures I have posted except for one photoset. I have check to make sure the pictures are set to safe, created a new set and new name. Any idea why he can't see this set?

For your first question, paste out three different shortcodes, one with privacy_filter = 1, the next with 2 and the third with 5. This is more a limitation of Flickr's API than anything else.

I don't know about the photoset. Is that person able to go onto Flickr directly and see the missing set?

OK I will try that, thought it was working the other way.

I will ask him.

They won't be able to all my private stuff will they?

Well, if it works with "125" then I will have learned something new. Let me know and I can update my documentation.

The plugin shows what Flickr lets you see. So if this person has access to some of your photos (Friends, Friends & Family etc), then he can see them via Flickr directly as well as via the plugin.

Just for clarification. If I give access to Private pictures, can they see everything including friends and family?

I believe it works with 125, I can setup a few pictures for testing if you like.

If I want to start over and set pictures as friends and only give access to these. What is the best approach? Disable app in both Wordpress and Flickr and then start over or is there and easier way?

Yup, that's the idea.

Great! So, in the context of your previous question, let's say someone has access to your private photos. Now, you specify "125", so this person actually gets to see everything under 1, 2 and 5. But a person with access level "1" can only see the public photos.

You don't have to disable anything. Whatever you change in Flickr, the next time someone reloads / revisits your WP site, the new photos show up.
