flickr rss trouble

Permalink
Hi there,

Just wondering if I was the only one having trouble displaying the images from flickr using the flickr block.

Everything looks ok, but just won't display it at all.

Did you get this to work or are you still stuck?

Still not working.

Managed to upload pictures to my server and get them displayed that way though.

Strange that he flickr thing won't work. Probably something I'm doing wrong :)

Make sure that you are using the url for the feed link. If you click on the rss symbol at the bottom of a photo set, you can get that address.

Also, I have noticed that some sets will not work. I am not a flickr user, but I think that maybe this is because a set is private.

I suspect the reason it doesn't work is because (as I just discovered after doing some debugging) the script is running out of memory.

My defult memory limit (ini_get('memory_limit')) was 32M, which I upped to 64M and then it works.

I am adding the URL that I receive after pressing the RSS feed icon at the bottom of my Flickr set:
http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photoset.gne?set=7215762689287...

But I am getting an error that says I've entered an invalid URL. Am I missing something obvious?
