The video below walks you through the process step by step

Here are the instructions to create a Flickr gallery that features another photographer’s work.

It will demonstrate three new features of the Slickr-Flickr WordPress Plugin

  • attribution – credit the photographer
  • flickr_link=”on” – link back to the photo on Flickr
  • descriptions=”on” – show descriptions of the photo in the captions

The steps are

  1. Find a tagged photo you like
  2. Check out what other photos the photographer has with that tag
  3. Note their FlickrID and the URL of their profile page
  4. Edit your Post
  5. In the content of the post add the slickr-flickr shortcode with
    type=”gallery” id=”their FlickrID” flickr_link=”on” descriptions=”on” and attribution=” Photos bythe URL of their profile
  6. Save
  7. View the results

In the is example the code is

[code]
slickr-flickr id="25643797@N03" attribution="Photos by <a href=’http://www.flickr.com/people/koolpix_nature/’>KoolPix / Jay D</a>" tag="plant" type="gallery" flickr_link="on" descriptions="on"
[/code]

The results looks like this:

    Alex, You could try a couple of things

    1. Use a backtick a.k.a grave character (`) in place of the apostrophe
    2. Use the HTML code for the apostrophe, & # 3 9;( ')

    Remove the spaces which I added here just for the code to render visible

    Whenever I switch back to “Visual” display from “Text”, then Publish, the apostrophes used in the attribution link keep getting changed to regular quotes, which causes the code to fail and not show the attribution link at all. I keep having to switch back to “Text” view, fix it, then Publish again. But one more change while in “Visual” view and WP will change it right back. Is there a better way to do this?

    Hi RockGeek,

    I need some context here vfpname = Visual FoxPro? You need to elaborate on what you are trying to achieve as it is not making much sense to me right now

    This is pretty much to what I need”

    I have tagged each photo with “vfpname: Forename Surname” – is there an easy way to grab the “Forename Surname” part of I use vfpname as an identifier?

    Phantastic, thanks a lot!
    I would like to do an “artist featuring” at my blog, so this is the absolute best way and plugin for me, to do this.

    Hi,

    isn’t it possible, just to show the photos of somebody without any tag?

    Thanks.
