# "User ID" error

 * Have tried several times to generate the correct shortcode for this public album:
 * [https://plus.google.com/photos/+ChristianKassoff/albums/5985114183441677121?cfem=1&sort=4](https://plus.google.com/photos/+ChristianKassoff/albums/5985114183441677121?cfem=1&sort=4)
 * Here’s the code the generator generates:
 * [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”+ChristianKassoff”
   ualb=”5985114183441677121″ imgl=”picasa” style=”vertical” size=”640″ num=”4″ 
   align=”center” max=”100″]
 * And here’s the error:
    Sorry: – Please recheck your ID(s). – If you are showing
   a private album, check that the “Retrieve Photos From” option is set to “User’s
   Private Album” and that the Authorization Key is correct.
 * I have tried variations on the User ID and the Album ID, to no avail.
 * Can you please steer me in the right direction? Thanks.

 * Hello, maybe this is a late answer but maybe still helps.
 * Look you can’t use your google+ url as the user ID, you have to use your user
   ID number.
 * The instructions are here: [http://thealpinepress.com/alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus/#finding-ids](http://thealpinepress.com/alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus/#finding-ids)

 * so whoever chose to opt for using google provided new “+Googleplususer” method
   can’t use this plugin to share pictures anymore? I have opted for this personalized
   url and I can’t see any number for my userid anymore in any of the picture url
   🙁
