  I tried to change my RSS feed from my personal Flickr account to a public Group I created. Nothing is showing up, not even a link to my Flickr accounts. I went to the “feed” and pasted the RSS in the wordpress widget but I am not getting any pics or links.

  How do I figure out what the problem is? Flickr site is way confusing to find help

  I’m not having any problems with the one Flickr widget I use. When I hover over the more pictures link on your Flickr widget, it shows me the url of your blog.

  If you haven’t seen this illustrated tutorial, it might help:

  ellaella,

  I used to have the pictures from Flickr in the side bar widget. Can’t get them to come back. If you click on the “more pictures”, it doesn’t do anything. Before, the user was redirected to my public flickr account. I’ll check out your link.

  I’m having the same problem… I have an RSS Feed for a set of photos that I want displayed since the new photos I have on Flickr aren’t related to my blog. When I put the new RSS Feed into the Flickr Widget, it displays the names of the photos but no photos. Any ideas?

  Please feel free to contact support. Be sure to provide your Flickr ID so that we can ensure you are using the proper RSS feed URL.

  If you restrict the widget to show only photos from a single flickr feed it will show the names of the image files, rather than thumbnails of the photos themselves. I think this might be the problem for some people posting here. More info at:
