Hot to get access to a private Flickr photo/gallery

marcobattaglia 27 Jan 2010 09:17

How may I use the Flickr module in order to get access to my private photos or to my private group in Flickr? Is there the possibility to have the same module to work with Picasa Web Album?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

This isn't possible with the module because flickr private photos and groups are just that - private. There is no way to add authentication to access them from a wikidot or another external site. The same applies to Picasa. You can only directly embed public Picasa web or Picasa flash photos.

What you could do is iframe the flickr site so you are accessing it via the wikidot site:

[[iframe http://www.flickr.com/ frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="100%" height="600px" scrolling="yes" frameborder="no"]]

I believe there is a way to access private Flickr images but I've never tried it. See http://www.wikidot.com/doc:wiki-syntax#toc26
