WordPress HELP!!

This group is for neophytes to WordPress who are trying to use it as a Bbd alternative and have questions that “everyone knows” the answers to already. Except those who don’t. Quick answers to specific questions is what I envision here, so we can set up our courses without spending hours trying to find out a simple answer. Of course, we NEED EXPERTS in the group to actually answer the questions. All experts and neophytes please join this group!!

Help with Quick Flickr Widget plugin?

  • Posted by Anne Leonard on August 11, 2011 at 2:39 pm

    hi,
    I need a plugin that will grab an RSS feed from flickr and picked Quick Flickr Widget, and am stumped by the very first line of the install instructions:
    1. Upload archive contents to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory

    How do I do this and where do I start? I’ve looked in the WordPress support forums but I’m still not sure where to find the “directory inside of wp-content.”

    Many thanks!

    thanks!

    Hi Anne –

    I just tested out Quick Flickr Widget on my blog in the bottom of the right sidebar:

    http://nottrivial.commons.gc.cuny.edu/

    I didn’t see the instruction you’re describing when after activating the plugin. But these were the steps I took and some screen captures attached.

    1. Activate plugin.
    2. Grab the Quick Flickr Widget, and drag it to a sidebar.
    3. Add the Flickr Screen name or RSS feed (I used the screen name).

    Hope this helps, and if it doesn’t, can you send a screencap?

    Best,

    Michael
