Am here now since it's the bug forum.

Still doesn't work for me, removed my authentication and re-added it, went to Flickr and changed the permissions so that third-party API keyholders could access the account, logged out everywhere, cleared cookies, cleared cache, logged back in to both nin.com and Flickr, still nothing shows up in the galleries (Manchester and Worcester). Also tried a different browser (IE) and that doesn't work either.

This is the story of my life.

I might work on this later but if someone has a suggestion, please advise.

Edit: well OF COURSE now that I wrote that it might be working. Can see the pictures from Manchester. Will check Worcester.

Edit again: so the pictures are showing up but just fyi, I don't show up under All Contributors. So far just you and/or swimfin.

I'm on WinXP currently using Firefox 2.0.0.18.

Some kind of bug is making your show up sporadically as a contributor, although your photos seem to work fine. We'll look into it.

 

11/15/08 8:26 PM

I haven't seen me show up at all yet; the "contributor" part I mean, not the pictures. Those seem to be working fine now. Thanks very much for checking into things.

Which JMJ tag do you think is better since hyphens won't work: justin meldaljohnsen or justin meldal johnsen? I'd guess they should all be the same, right?

If I have trouble with Heineken leechers again, it'll be all your fault.

Just use justin meldaljohnsen for now - hyphens will soon work in tags.

 

11/15/08 9:15 PM

Thanks - I did find another bug: when commenting, the person's profile pic show up next to the comment and at first it comes out all compressed weird or something but then it fixed itself. Not sure if that is how it's supposed to be or not. I think I had to hit F5 a couple of times and then it looked normal.

Aside from not showing up under View All Contributors, it seems to be working fine for me. Thanks again.

Edit: also the times of the comment are showing up as Pacific Time. Maybe that's intentional.

Sorry to keep posting but you did say to report bugs!

is the "tag" working for the gallery available for NIN's show in Caracas-Venezuela? is the only one i see that is not called "flickr tag" but "tag"

i followed the instructions given but my pics from the show are not posted...
please, help sad smiley

a comment to a photo was automatically cut down to 255 (256 maybe? =)) symbols, without any warning. No way to edit/fix/delete the comment. Have a look here: [beta.media.nin.com]

My picture isn't showing up in the photoshop section. Since no one else has uploaded any pictures themre, I'm gonna assume it's a bug and not my fault. I've tried revoking access to my account and allowing it anew, tried changing the tags... Can someone upload a photoshop there and see if they have the same issue?

I'm talking about here in case anyone's wondering.

 

11/16/08 7:20 AM

Looks like someone else was able to post to the Photoshop gallery. Did you add the tag ninpsh4ty8z69 to your image on Flickr?

It should say "Flickr tag," I'm not sure why it just says "tag" on that show. It's the same thing though. So on Flickr, add the tag nin8sf5o9rnr8 to your Caracas photos.

Yes, I tagged the image ninpsh4ty8z69. I suppose it's possible that I've got some setting which might be preventing the site from grabbing stuff out of my account. I might try to upload a picture to a different gallery to see if I have issues there, then delete it.

NM! Saw you replied in the other thread

i found a problem in de-tagging photos on flickr, seems once a photo is added to a nin.com gallery it won't disappear when the tag gets deleted on flickr. for example, i added one picture to the photoshop gallery but decided i won't keep it there. deleted the tag on flickr like 2 hours ago, and it's still there.

the picture in question: [beta.media.nin.com]

Nothing working for photos for me, I did all troubleshooting, even reconfirmed flickr on my contacts four times.
Tags were tested over, and over, checked nin.com was showing under extensions, unlocked all permissions, loaded images into five galleries, waited over hour, and nothing, nada!

operating system windows XP

Tried both FF, and IE.

Minor error, sometimes when I click "view full size", it goes to the photo's flickr page. Most photos direct to the full size properly.

Same problem here. All has been looked at, everything's well done, but nothing shows in the Montreal gallery. I'm using Mozilla firefox 2.0.0.11 on Win XP and I'm about to scream.

 

11/16/08 5:40 PM

I have tried pretty much everything and I am still unable to see my photos. I have uploaded them and I only used the given tag for the 09.02 Red Rocks show (Flickr tag: nindpc1hrfe2z) see pic below. I also checked my permissions on Flickr and they are fine. I have also removed and re-authenticated myFlickr account with nin.com. Can anyone help?

Mozilla Firefox Version 3.0.4
Windows XP Professional (thumbs down)

So basically for most of the people here, I think that:

1. The flickr account is correctly joined to your NIN account

2. Your photos and stuff have been uploaded in Flickr

3. Your photos and stuff have been tagged with the correct tag of the gallery you wanna add your stuff in

4. Your picture options are set so that everybody can see it, all flickr users can comment AND tag them

5. You enabled the third party APP so they can access your pictures

6. It still doesn't work and your pictures won't show and you spent hours working on that and now want to bite the head off the next living thing that crosses your way?

Am I correct??
Then I think we all have the same problem, and that's probably a minor thing to fix. Still, we need help.

The below was posted by Rob at 6:33 here:

Our devs are looking into the specific cases mentioned here of Flickr accounts not working with nin.com. There may be issues with our system, or there may be strange conditions of certain Flickr accounts that cause it not to work, which we don't know about yet. We'll get it figured out one way or another, that's the joy of beta.

You may want to check the link above from time to time, since bugs and fixes are being discussed there as well...

I have my Flickr account set to NOT allow others to tag them and they are still showing up here.

Everyone definitely check the third-party API setting. That is in "Privacy and Permissions" not in the "Extending Flickr" tab. I thought the default was *to* allow it but Flickr may have changed that. I originally had mine set to not allow and when I changed it the pics started showing up here. I wish Flickr allowed people to specify which third parties were allowed to access but as far as I know, they don't at this time; it's all or nothing.

Rob: a suggestion for the picture galleries: it would be nice to have a small entry box for the content creator to put a description in, similar to what is done on Flickr but it wouldn't have to be unlimited length as the Flickr box is. I suppose this could just be done by leaving a comment but a description box would be nice anyway. Also a way to either preview one's comments or edit them since as far as I can tell the character limit is still at 256 and that requires copy/paste into a WP program to check the count.

I believe that's in the works. From Rob's post:

Q: What features are you working on for the site?
A: By the time the site launches live, we're hoping to incorporate the following features:
- Ability to add descriptions
- Integrated help/how-tos
- Photo and video modules on user profiles
- Each member will have a personal gallery attached to their profiles, where they can post personal photos (i.e. of themselves and their cat)
- View counts
- Ability to rate comments up/down, and sort comments by rating (a la Digg/YouTube)
- Ability to add favorites
- Ability to contribute media that you yourself did not create (i.e. music videos, interviews, old press photos, etc)
- Feeds for content/comments/tags/etc
- More cool shit that will make your head explode

And I just saw what I wanted too, favorites, woo hoo!

the_fragile: did you do anything or did it just start working?

 

11/16/08 6:55 PM

Saw the_fragile's posts and fuligin's and got my hopes up again. I even tried (within flickr) making the content tag-able by others, which didn't seem like a good idea... Still no luck. Looked into the API issue mentioned by maryelle, and that doesn't seem to be causing the problem.

But my tagged images still aren't showing up in the galleries...
