This is a widget to display items from Flickr in the sidebar or within pages and posts. This widget supports:

  • Flickr RSS feeds
  • Photostream
  • Filtering by tag
  • One or more photosets
  • Favorites
  • Displaying random items

Other features:

  • Choose from three different thumbnail types
  • Lightbox/Thickbox are supported
  • Data is cached locally to lower server load
  • Secure Flickr API used, to eliminate the risk of damage to your server, unlike some other Flickr widgets
  • Flickrpress is a multi-widget, so you can use more than one instance (e.g., one in your sidebar, one in your footer)
  • Use as a shortcode to insert into posts and pages -- multiple instances supported in the one entry

Flickrpress uses the excellent phpFlickr library.
