## Description

Flickr is a great solution for managing your photos, but it can be a bit tough to
show those photos on your site.

This plugin provides an easy method to display your Flickr sets & photos on your
site. You can put custom CSS in your theme’s stylesheet to redefine the look and
feel of your galleries.

You can also choose to not display ‘private’ photos on your site, or to not show
certain albums.

## Installation

 1. Upload plugin to your wordpress installation plugin directory
 2. Activate plugin through the `Plugins` menu in WordPress
 3. Look at the configuration screen (found under `Settings` in the WordPress menu)
 4. Choose which page to use for showing photos, and enter your Flickr API key.

## FAQ

  Can I choose not to display certain albums?

Sure – there’s a settings page which lists all of your albums. You can tick which
ones you want to hide.

  Can I choose not to display certain photos?

Sure – just mark the photo as ‘private’ in your Flickr account, and tick the “Hide
private photos” setting your WordPress admin area.

  Why am I getting 404 errors?

Maybe you haven’t set up “pretty permalinks” yet. If you’re still using the default
permalink structure (site.com/?p=3) then you’re going to have some problems.

  How do I apply my own CSS rules?

The plugin contains a file called “skeleton.css”. Copy/paste the contents of this
to your theme’s custom CSS file, and over-ride any style rules you like.
