Unlisted Albums (5 posts)

    This is almost the exact plugin that I need. I can view public albums no problem, but is it possible to view unlisted albums through this plugin? If not, could you give me some clues on how I might hack up the code to include them. I know that somewhere I would have to plug in the authkey for each album, but I'm not sure where to begin. Or better yet, do you plan to add this support in the future.

    thanks

    Hmm, I've never used that feature before. I'll look at the Picasa API reference if there is a way to get unlisted albums.

    For now, I'm simply reading the XML file that they provide and display all the albums that are in the file. If an album is not displayed on your website, it means it's not in the XML file from Picasa.

    That being said, I will have a look at this and will let you know whether or not it is possible in the future.

    Alright, I checked the Picasa API documentation and yes it can be done. Since I've killed pretty much every bug that people have sent me, it's going to be at the top of my TODO list.

    After reading more seriously the Picasa Data API, it is too much trouble to handle the whole Google Authentification process. I would have to make kPicasa log in and obtain an auth key every single time the page would be loaded. Seems like too much trouble for now. I'll keep this on my list with a lower priority.
