 * It doesn’t work. I get the message:
    “Notice: Undefined index: importflickrshortcode
   in /home/www/wp-content/plugins/flickr-shortcode-importer/flickr-shortcode-importer.
   php on line 123”. The import doesn’t work.

 * Stefan,
 * Can you please try version 1.4.0?
 * Despite the notice, are you sure you’re not able to move forward?
 * The notice is only a notice, not an error, but I’ll look into adding an isset
   to prevent such a notice.

 * I’ve added the isset to SVN. It’ll be available in 20-30 minutes from WP.
 * Can you please provide more information on how the plugin isn’t working for you?
 * During my own imports, a post with one [flickr] entry could take a minute. Then
   posts with many [flickr] entries, several Flickr-source’d A/IMG tags and a 30
   or so [flickset] of photos took over 10-minutes to import.
 * During that time, it’ll look like nothing is happening.
 * I recommend setting the limit in options to 1 and then testing your installation.
   That sure makes for easier recovery in case something goes wrong.

 * Hi Michael!
 * Thank you for your answers and for your work!
    Now I tried the latest version
   1.4.2 but it still doesn’t work. Is it right, that I only have to insert “[flickr
   id=”1234567890″]” or “[flickrset id=”1234567890″]” into the post/side and than
   use the button “Import Flickr Shortcode”? Sorry, my english and my HTML-knowledge
   are not very good 🙁
 * When I try it on this way, I get this error-message:
 * All done! 0 [flickr(set)](s) were successfully processed in 3 seconds and there
   were 1 failure(s). To try importing the failed [flickr]s again, click here.
    
   Please be patient while the [flickr(set)] shortcodes are processed. This can 
   take a while, up to 2 minutes per individual Flickr media item. Do not navigate
   away from this page until this script is done or the import will not be completed.
   You will be notified via this page when the import is completed. Estimated time
   required to import is 2 minutes. 100% Debugging Information Total [flickr(set)]

   var c = arguments, g, h, i, j, k; b && (k = b, b = 0); for (g = 0, h = c.length;
   g < h; g++) { i = c[g], j = f.type(i), j === “array” ? e.done.apply(e, i) : j
   === “function” && a.push(i); } k && e.resolveWith(k[0], k[1]); } return this;}
 * Have a nice day!

 * Stefan,
 * That’s an interesting way to look at using this plugin. I’d been using to import
   hundreds of [flickr] shortcodes that had already been embeded in content over
   the past few years.
 * The plugin is expecting the full [flickr] shortcode like [flickr id=”5348222727″
   thumbnail=”small” overlay=”false” size=”large” group=”” align=”none”].
 * You get this code by using the WordPress plugin WordPress Flickr Manager to select
   and embed the [flickr] shortcode.
 * Have you tried that to see if a proper [flickr] shortcode works for the import?
 * If it still fails, could you please send me the actual [flickr] you’re using 
   or even the post content for me to test with.
 * I’m wondering if people need to have their own Flickr API in order to use this.
   That’s possible as I haven’t tried cross account pulling.

 * Stefan,
 * I just pushed up release 1.4.3 which allows you to create and use your own Flickr
   API key. I’m not sure if that is the trouble or not, but it’s one more thing 
   to help me with in testing if this is working for you or not.

 * Stefan,
 * I’ve had some updates on the Flickr Shortcode Importer that resolves a few different
   cases of imports not working. Seems that Flickr has more URLs than I was aware
   of.
 * Anyways, please try the latest 1.7.0 version and let me know how it goes.
 * Michael
