 * Hi there,
 * I am using the Flickr API Plugin on my wordpress site with joy to make simple
   API calls. Now Flickr informed all API users they have to switch to https, as
   http requests won’t be supported any longer.
 * Does the plugin already use https-calls or do you plan to implement it before
   the plugin stops working at the end of June?
 * Many thanks
    Markus

 * Thanks for this tip-off mleis_de – helped me work out why my pictures had disappeared.
 * No, this plugin does not use the https calls and looks to have been ignored lately.
 * I only had to change flickr.php line 603:
    `$url = "http://api.flickr.com/services/
   rest/";` to `$url = "https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/";`
 * …and images appeared again.
 * Might be worth a try.
