Thank you Brian, that is a lot better!

Yeah, the forum does not know the difference between code for it to use vs something you are posting for illustration. That is why you have to use the code block to force the forum to leave your code untouched.

The key difference I see is that the South Date code uses a setID to select the photos and the Miami Dade one uses a keyword. If you look closely in the code, you can see that. I am thinking you either did not select the method to filter/identify your photos properly in the FlickrIt website or you do not have a setId for the Miami Dade photos. Did you create a group for your photos on the Flickr website to indicate the ones to actually show? I believe the set id is the random string that shows in your browser address bar for the group. (The terminology that Flickr uses is a little bit different than what the Flickrit plugin uses.)

Again though, the key is to get the method you are using to filter/select the photos to match what Flickrit is set to use. If you get it correct you should see the slideshow on the FlickrIt website. That is your sign that it is correct.

(The filtering/selection method is the part I had the most trouble with, also.)

I tried again.... Maybe is my computer!

I tried again.... Maybe is my computer!

I got rid of the album, and was so careful downloading pictures. I repeated over a dozen times. I don't know if the problem is in Flicr or Flickrit! .... I will rest for a week........then try again. Aida.

GOOD NEWS! IT WORKED, this time I placed the embedded code and followed Steve's Instructions, I placed it where I wanted it to appear, looked por a good place in home page. I am very happy that I was able to do it. Aida.

I asked Flickrit for help, and got an answer today, I WISH I understood what I had done wrong, but I don't. here is the note I got:

Hi Crusan,

You appear to have an error in your generated code, you are trying to look for a keyword=72157653846403534, I believe that you want the album with that identification?

I have corrected it below.

<div style='position: relative; padding-bottom: 76%; height: 0; overflow: hidden;'><iframe id='iframe' src='//flickrit.com/slideshowholder.php?height=75&size=big&setId=72157653846403534&credit=1&trans=1&theme=1&thumbnails=0&transition=0&layoutType=responsive&sort=0' scrolling='no' frameborder='0'style='width:100%; height:100%; position: absolute; top:0; left:0;' ></iframe></div>


Best Regards,

Flickrit Team

I manage 2 Websites for my Toastmaster clubs, I can't post a slide show.. and can't understand why, I have tried over a dozen times! I have been able to post first slide show in one of the sites (South Dade South Dade Club 2463 ), but the second one, impossible.(Miami Advanced Miami Advanced Club 2798) PLEASE TELL ME WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? Aida Crusan.

South Dade Embedded Code (THIS ONE WORKS)

<div style="height: 0px; overflow: hidden; padding-bottom: 66%; position: relative;"><iframe frameborder="0" id="iframe" scrolling="no" src="flickrit.com/slideshowholder.php?height=...esponsive&sort=0" style="left: 0px; top: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;">

I figured out what was different from his version to mine, but I don't understand, what do I do to get the embedded code with the wrong words before the set # .... I tested with another set of pictures, and I still got the same words that the support person changed so I copied his words and pasted his words on them, and it WORKED!!

The words before the #. are: big&setId= instead of big&keyword=

If this can be of help to someone, it has been worth what I have been gone through! I think I have lost a couple o pounds! (Thank God I needed it)

Here is what you did not do that caused the problem... Look at the following captured from the Flickrit website.



You can see that the default for this setting is the keyword selection. You have to change it to set/album selection for it to work with a Flickr album. This drop-down is what changes the wording in the embedding code from keyword to setid. If you look carefully at the embedding code when you change this drop-down, you will see what I mean.

It took me a while to figure out that I needed to remember to change this to the setId selection. I think this is probably the most confusing part of using this slideshow widget.
