Hi Ryan,
Try to download and reinstall using the latest development build at http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/wordpress-flickr-manager.zip, let me know if this fixes your issue.
Also, please lodge all support requests in the support site, it helps me track all the open issues. Thanks
I’ll give that a try tonight. Thanks for the quick response. I’ll post in the support area from now on.
Great Trent, this fix my issues
Plugin now works smoothly and it’s very useful.
Thanks a lot for your work and assistance.

Hello Trent,
after applying the automatic update to 3.0.1, this appears now in my page:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /homepages/6/d290594990/htdocs/framas-photos/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-flickr-manager/FlickrManager.php on line 457
Is there a way to get back to version 3.0.0. wich worked flawlessly ?
Take care.
Francois.
Hello Trent,
I installed the most recent version of the plugin on my clients site and it appears to be working now. However, I have a question. When inserting an image into a post in the “Visual” editor in WordPress, the image is displayed as a shortcode like…
[flickr id="5666213234" thumbnail="thumbnail" overlay="true" size="large" group="" align="left"]My client mentioned that when using your plugin in the past, when inserting an image via your plugin the image would be displayed in the visual viewer just as it would when inserting an image via WordPress itself. Can you tell me if this is in fact the case? Is there a setting I need to change so that when adding an image via the Flickr Manager plugin it will display the actual image rather that the shortcode in the visual editor?
Somewhat related to this is that my client said that previously they were able to manually resize the photos by dragging in the visual editor (just as you can when using WordPress’s default functionality). Is this also something that is still doable with your plugin?
Thank you again in advance!

I am not getting anything to show up in the browse panel, my pro flickr account just expired and there fore the “200 fotos” only.
Would this affect the browse panel?
In the media panel, if I don’t select a size for the viewer size, nothing appears to happen. Looking in Chrome’s javascript console, I see an error “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method ‘replace’ of undefined” on this line:
doc.find(“input:radio[name='overlaySize']:checked”).val().replace(‘ ‘,’_')
It might be worth either checking a default option or providing some sort of notification that an option was not selected.
Also, I had a bunch of shortcodes from the old version that used pid=”xxxxx” instead of id=”xxxxx”. I had to dump my posts table and do a find and replace and import to fix it. If that’s an old enough change it’s probably not worth accounting for, but something I wanted to mention.
I love the plugin and the new features look awesome! Thanks so much!
The overlay size should be defaulting to medium, and will be fixed in the next service release.
The shortcode system was entirely revamped and I completely forgot that I was using pid instead of id, I’ll add a check for this for the people who aren’t quite so tech savvy.
Thanks Jason
I liked being able to see a visual of the photo in order to resize it to whatever size I wanted. Hope this is changed back in future updates.
since i updated to flickr manager 3.1, i cant show a gallery in the standard text widget like this.
[flickrset id="72157626506767005" thumbnail="square"]
when i was using 2.3 it was working well.
is there a list of all parameters like “thumbnail” online?
thanks for your help,
martin

What can be added into the album in the background effects and a single photo browser, a browser independent Effect settings it?
Hi Just checking to see if you could resolve an issue.
When trying to insert an album, clicking the Insert Into Post button does not close the control panel. If I close it manually by clicking on the X, I can see the flickerset has been inserted in the post.
The other issue is that the lightbox effect is not working either. When clicking on the images, I am brought to the actual image, rather than the lightbox “kicking in”.
Using the following;
Version 3.0.1
WP version 3.1
Thanks for your time.
Hi?When I enlarge the time prompted “this photo is currently unavailable”?
Please help have a look how the matter?

Thanks for the update, about to upgrade now
I just tried to do an install now from the download on this page and when I tried to authenticate it I got this message:
“Oops! The API key or signature is invalid. An external application has requested your login credentials and permission to perform certain actions on your behalf, but has failed to include all the required data. “
okay as a follow up, I reset the api to default and then tried to authenticate and it passes the first page but then i got “Oops! That’s no longer a valid “frob”
I just updated to 3.0.01 (advertised in the plugins in WP admin) and I, too, am gettting the “Invalid argument supplied for foreach()” error. In fact, as I write this, I see that error at the top of this very page on your blog. Something’s not right.
Great plugin! I only wish to get a version that is either compatible with jQuery Colorbox, or if there were an option to link (href) directly to the small/medium/large image on Flickr from the “Image Viewer” settings. That way it could integrate with just about any lightbox out there.
