Gallery Of Group Photos For Marta
This gallery was concerned with displaying a Flickr group’s photos with the inclusion of a link back to the original photo on Flickr, however the flickr link was not appearing even though she had set flickr_link=”on”. On investigation, it was apparent Slickr Flickr was ignoring the flickr_link setting.
It turned out that the quotation marks around the ‘on’ were not the standard vertical double quotation marks ASCII character 34 (") but slighting slanting opening quotes ASCII character 8220 (“). Simply replacing “on“ by "on" solved the problem
Gallery For Andrea
This post was to demonstrate the use of a narrow gallery with photos on each row.

Hey Russel,
I think it is a do_shortcode() problem… when I insert it on the page content, its ok…
Another question: is there a way to show a “next photos”, or “next page” on the gallery?
I want to show just 5 photos, but I would like to let the user navigates for the next photos…
Thanks again!!!
Cristiano

Hi Cristiano,
In the slickr-flickr command delete the quotes around the tag, then type then again. You probably have mismatching or smart quotes rather than regular ones.
IF the quotes are dodgy than WordPress will send Slickr Flickr the command without the tag and hence photos from your entire photostream are fetched.

Russell

Hi there,
Thanks for you great plugin.
I have a problem with the gallery: I need to show diferent small galleries in the same page, using tags… so, I’m using this [slickr-flickr tag="diadebrasil2012"] code, with the specific tag for each gallery, but it just cach the same photos, as ignoring the tags…
What could be happening?
Thanks!!

Hi Jason,
That’s the problem with WordPress is that you type normal quotes and they get rendered as opening and closing quotes when they are cut and pasted. If you let me know which page you copied them from, I will go back and edit the quotes

Thank you, I was missing the “search” parameter, but that still doens’t seem to have changed anything, untill I noticed the ” I copied from your post was a little strange .. changed that to normal ” and all is good. Thanks!

Hi Jason,
The issue is a typo or a syntax error in your slickr-flickr command – so Slickr Flickr just delivers the latest photos from your photostream
It should be slickr-flickr search=”sets” set=”yoursetid”
Make sure you are using standard double quotes around the parameters.

slickr flickr seems to be ignoring the set id
I have two different gallaries based on flickr sets, but not only do they show the same immages it isn’t either set I specified.
I cleared cache and still the smae issue? Any suggestions?

Hi Kumar,
This will most likely be down to your WordPress theme CSS overriding the Slickr Flickr CSS settings
see http://www.slickrflickr.com/support/how-to-remove-list-icons-from-the-gallery/ as an example where theme css was the issue.
If your case the theme will probably be adding margins or padding around list elements or will be forcing the “display” CSS element to be “block” when Slickr Flickr needs it to be “inline-block”

Hi Andrea
I have displayed the gallery at http://www.slickrflickr.com/1077/slickr-flickr-1-13-flickr-user-galleries/ and it looks okay with 20 photos displayed two per row.
I removed the items=”2″ as I presume you want more than just the first two photos.
However if you do only want only two photos in the gallery you do not need to specify photos_per_row, just specify items=”2″.
The reason the two photos appear one below the other on your site is down to your “Parabiz” theme which specifies the CSS style “clear:both” for list elements ul li and ol li in the file http://www.ambientefestival.it/af10/wp-content/themes/parabiz/style.css. This instruction means that lists will always appear vertically rather than horizontally.
You can fix this by editing the Slickr Flickr plugin and selecting the CSS file slickr-flickr.css and editing line 21 to include the CSS style “clear:none” as follows:
[css]
.slickr-flickr-gallery ul li { display: inline; background: none; float:left; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; text-align: center; clear:none; }
[/css]
I will add this fix to the next release
Regards
Russell

Hi Andrea,
