Problem with Flickr link

same here. the url i'm trying to paste is: http://www.flickr.com/photos/milchbarcreative/sets/72157623908858228/

I enabled custom URL and Flickr in the EMF Config, with no luck. Am i missing something or is this feature corrupt? Would be nice to see this working for this great module.

Flickr is no longer supported in the main Emfield module. Please use the latest 2.x version of emfield and Media_Flickr and report back if you're still having a problem. I'm pushing this to the Media_Flickr queue, where this now belongs.

Yeah I can confirm this is not working. I've got the latest dev version of Emfield installed and when I add my Flickr Photoset URL to the embedded media field, the field shows on my node when I save it, but the images do not show up in the slideshow.

Any suggestions?

how does on use the flotsam files? do they go in emfield module or alone?

Subscribing. I'm currently leaning toward the separate Flickr module, but I'd love to be able to use Embedded Media instead.

Thanks!

Ok. I had similar issues with Flickr. This is what I did to get around the issues:

Configuration:
--------------------
(1) After you install the Embedded Media Field and Media: Flickr modules, go to your admin configuration (http://[www.yoursite.com]/admin/content/emfield) and set the "Flickr API" values under Images or Videos tab > "Flickr configuration". Note: You need to create your Flickr API key and secret from your account on Flickr.

(2) Now when you create your Content Type and add the "Embedded Image" and/or "Embedded Video" field(s), you will need to fill out additional settings. In the "Providers Supported" fieldset area, check the "Custom URL" and "Flickr". Save the field settings.

Content Creation:
----------------
(3) If you want a single image from Flickr, then use the "Embedded Image" CCK field.
Example Flickr URL: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thusthought/5156938698/in/set-7215762522081...

(4) If you want to use a set from Flickr, then use the "Embedded Video" CCK field.
Example Flickr URL: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thusthought/sets/72157625220814125/show/

This worked for me! I hope this helps!

Note to Embedded Media Field maintainers: It would have been very helpful to have this type of step-by-step sequence in your help/release notes or on the module's configuration pages' help text itself. Initially, I got confused by the "Embedded Image" CCK field as that denoted it could be used for Flickr individual photos as well as sets (since sets are not videos). However, Flickr sets are handled by "Embedded Video" CCK field. It would be very helpful to give a different error message when someone tries to put in URL for sets on the "Embedded Image" field, such as "Use Embedded Video for Flickr sets" or "The valid URL formats are [url formats]". "Embedded Video" is a bit of a misnomer ... it should probably be "Embedded Video/Slideshow" for better clarity.

Thanks.

thanks, @UiNui, i posted those helpful instructions to the project page and the read me!
