Hi there. I actually love the Shiny theme. It works great for me too. I ran into the same problem with the archives page. Cymber: (or anyone who knows) how exactly did you get the archives to work? Did you change the permalink structure? and if so… to what??

Hi there. I downloaded your Flickr plugin tonight but am having a few problems. I can only get images to show up in the preview area when adding the optional description field. Also, the overlays don’t appear to be working for me.

I have all the files inside of a folder called flickr_feeder within the plugins folder. I’ve confirmed that the cache folder is writeable.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Cymber - Unfortunately, Shiny is just a mess and it does stuff like this without a very specific setup. If you visit DPBlogs.com you’ll see that we set up our permalinks to work using /tags/ as and option in the URL. Try something similar and I think it will work for you.

Hi, I dl’d and installed the Shiny theme. I have encountered only one problem. When I click on ‘The Archives’ in the Menu, it tries to load a page ending in /tag/

I don’t have a file in the theme directory with that name, so it just loads a 500 Internal Server Error.

Is there something I need to do to get that page setup? Thanks!

fixed it, i basically had to edit the home.php template and add the echo line to output the flickr feed.

Jason - are you getting photos showing up in the preview area on the options page?

Does the flickr feed badge work with version .2? And is there any modificatios that need to be added to the template to get the plugin to work, cause i dont see any of the photos showing up on my site.

Lavender - It’s because I hard-coded the URL, assuming a particular permalink structure. That’s definitely a significant bug. I’ll look into building a URL based on the blog’s specified permalink structure.
