Flickr Badge
A Flickr bade is a pagelet that displays public photos from Flickr.
Editing
To edit a Flickr Badge, you use the Selection Inspector. In addition to those listed below, there are some general pagelet attributes that can be set.
Also, don't forget that you can click the green Editing Marker (
) to insert some additional text into the pagelet.
Flickr URL code
Enter the account ID code of a Flickr account (generally your own) in the form "#########@###" to display only public photos from that account. If you don't specify an ID, the badge will display public photos from all accounts.
You can generally find your ID by looking at the URL of your "You" page or individual photo pages.
If you need help determining your Flickr ID:
- Log in to your Flickr account.
- Click the "You" link at the top of the page.
- Copy the URL of the page from the address bar.
- Go to http://idgettr.com/
- Paste the address you copied into the box, and click the "Find" button.
- Copy the ID given to you by the site and paste it into Sandvox.
Photos tagged
The photos in the badge are limited to those that match all the tags entered here. Leave this field empty to use all public photos, regardless of tag. You can specify multiple tags by separating them with commas. e.g.
apple, sandvox
You might use this feature to display only photos relevant to the content of your site or a particular page.
