This is a more-or-less minor relese. Besides an Arabic translation it’s now possible to view non-albums, but in this version only when viewing an album directly. It will not work when viewing all albums (not yet). Just use the tag like this (the token is generated by picasaweb, so you have to look there):
[picasaView album='ALBUMNAME' authkey='AUTHTOKEN']

Hi,
I have two questions:
-1- I am not clear at all having read your instructions and reviewed all the comments why when I do a simple [picasaView] the vignettes for all the albums in my Publicly available Picasa only display vertically one at a time.
See: http://www.au-trescols.net/01/galeries/picasa-view/
How does one display them on the page in, for example, a 4×4 grid and with paging – exactly as occurs when displaying a single album? Perhaps a full concrete example of this on your site would be useful as this question appears to have been made several times.
-2- I have v.1.14 of your plugin and have tried the display of a “non-public’ album. (I am using WP 3.01 in multisite mode with Safari Mac).
If I copy the URL of one album i.e. http://picasaweb.google.com/trescols/SharonStone?authkey=Gv1sRgCP_wgYaLhaUG
- which does work after I have logged out of my Google account -
and I put the following in my content box:
[picasaView album='SharonStone' authkey='Gv1sRgCP_wgYaLhaUG']
invariably I get the error message:
<>
I have also tried using the main authkey that is indicated in my Picasa account settings; same error.
I note that in a Picasa album’s settings there are three options: Public, All users having the URL and Private. The above SharonStone example has been tried using both the last two options: always the same error message.
I would greatly value your advice on these two points.
Thanking you in advance
Regards
Martin

Nevermind I figure it out. I am using multi site WordPress and forgot to set the settings on subsite. Is there anyway to organize the gallery in columns?

Hi.
Simple question. Where do I get the “User Id” I should put in the Picasaview settings?
Thanks for your help.

This is the error message I get when viewing the post.
“picasaView plugin: there are no albums available for this user in picasaweb.”
This is why I asked the question about the settings. I thought it might be an incorrect username. For the Server URL i put “http://picasaweb.google.com”.
