Like with single photo, the required ID from a set can be extracted from the URL corresponding to the set:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/universal_playground/sets/72157627383502935/
Where 72157627383502935 is the ID number of the set. The expression to display a set requires the set attribute. For instance, [flickr set=72157627383502935] results in:
In contrast to photo's, sets can only be displayed using the square sized thumbnail. However, the slide show can still be selected by the corresponding attribute.
Version 3.5 and later feature the option to display one photo on your website which links to a set in the image viewer. All the options for displaying single photos (controlling size, alignment, vspace and hspace) are available for the photo being displayed on the website in this combination of attributes. For example [flickr set=72157627383502935 photo=display size=small] will use the primary set image result as the image displayed on the website:
Next to using the primary image you can use a photo ID to define the image displayed on the website. For example, [flickr set=72157627383502935 photo=6076523842 align=center size=small] will result in a diferent photo displayed on the website linking to the same set:
Notice that the slideshows from both photos start at the beginning of the slideshow. You can change this to have the slideshow start from the photo displayed on the website by changing a plugin setting.
Note: The image displayed on the website has to be part of the selection displayed in the image viewer.
The default amount of photos displayed on your website can be set in the admin interface of Joomla. However, the plugin also alows you to set the maximum amount of photos to display in each expression. Simply add limit=xxx (where xxx is replaxed by the maximum amount of photos you want to display). For example [flickr set=72157627383502935 limit=2] will display the first two photos of the photoset displayed above:
Furthermore, we can select a range of photos by adding the section argument. For instance, to display the second 2 photos from the set displayed above, the expression is [flickr set=72157627383502935 limit=2 section=2]:
Since version 3.5 the plugin features a download function for the original format of the photo. This option (disabled by default for copyright reasons) can be enabled or disabled in the plugin settins or on a per expression basis using the download attribute. Please visit this page for an example.
Note: This option is only available when the original photo format is available on the for the plugin. In most cases this means that the plugin requires to be linked to a flickr pro accaunt, that the plugin is authenticated with that authenticated and that the photos are from the linked account.
Please respect copyright, especially with this feature!
