BB Code Enhancements - Flickr Set Slideshow - bbcode

I was very frustrated in my search for an easy bbcode hack for Flickr. I tried the basic iframe but Flickr put a stop to that in a half second.

I'd love to find a way to just copy the entire url and quickly paste it in between the tags, but I've had no such luck in my search across the series of tubes we call the interwebs. If anybody has a solution I would love to have it.

In the meantime, this method is working out pretty decently. Rather than grabbing the whole url of the Flickr Set, you/your members will need to copy the set id, the last numbers in the url.

This is my second mod, the first is my picasaweb hack, posted @15 minutes ago so I hope I'm giving you adequate information.

Title: Flickr Slideshow

Tag: flickr

Replacement:
HTML Code:

PHP Code:

<iframe align="center" src="http://www.flickr.com/slideShow/index.gne?group_id={param}&user_id={param}&set_id={param}&text={param}" frameBorder="0" width="600" height="600" scrolling="no"></iframe> 


Example: [flickr]72157620997452434[/flickr]

Description: Embeds a Flickr Set Slideshow into your post

Use {option}: No

Button Image: (upload my attached "flickr.gif" if you like)

Remove Tag If Empty: Yes

Disable BB Code Within This BB Code: No

Disable Smilies Within This BB Code: No

Disable Word Wrapping Within This BB Code: No

I have a tutorial video for my members and a sample slideshow if you'd like to take a look:

As I said on my picasaweb mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=243366)
...I'll have to say NO on the support at this time, I'm still a noob and not that great at problem solving, I'm hoping the community can chime in with any issues.

Thanks.

I have replaced the code with your code above.. And am using

PHP Code:

{flickr]username/99999999[/flickr] 


With my own username/set ID number cut and pasted from the flickr URL

And thats clearly not working..

Well, if that's a cut and paste, I've found your problem! {flickr] Should be [ not {

Did you follow the instructions at the beginning of the thread? You create the BBCode exactly as the OP specified, but you insert the code I provided above.

I replaced the OP code with your code..

If its insert is it before or after the initial code ??

No thats just a typo.

Also of annoyance even if working, and I realize this isnt the coders fault but flickrs, is it now exposes the persons flickr handle linking real life flickr account to forum profiles. The flickr user name becomes visible in any quoted post.

On my forum people like anonymity and this could lead to stalking and real world issues.
