Title: HTTPS API Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # HTTPS API * [vespino](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vespino/) * (@vespino) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/) * I just got a mail from Flickr saying the API will be be only accessible via HTTPS from the 27th of june. Will the plugin be updated before that date? * New API keys will be issued for HTTPS access only: as of 6 May 2014 First blackout test window: 3 June 2014, 10:00-12:00 Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) Second blackout test window: 17 June 2014, 18:00-20:00 (PDT) Non-SSL API deprecated: 27 June 2014, 10:00 (PDT) * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/flickr-gallery/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/flickr-gallery/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 22 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/page/2/?output_format=md) * [gflaig](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gflaig/) * (@gflaig) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893107) * I changed every instance of “[http://flickr.com”](http://flickr.com”); that occured with the flickr-gallery.php script into “[https://flickr.com”](https://flickr.com”); hoping ill continue working. * It still seems to be running. I hope that I dont miss the announce blackout phase, so I can test if it continues working. * [jill_hughes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jill_hughes/) * (@jill_hughes) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893118) * I have tried to contact the developer, but not had a reply as yet. * Has anyone managed to get their flickr gallery working since the changes? * [gflaig](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gflaig/) * (@gflaig) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893119) * my (only systematic) modifications finally did NOT work. * Will try to analyze this further. I do use this plugin in 3 different blogs * If anybody else has an idea, I d be glad to test. * [michaelw_dc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michaelw_dc/) * (@michaelw_dc) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893120) * I updated all instances of [http://api.flickr.com](http://api.flickr.com) to [https://api.flickr.com](https://api.flickr.com) within the file: phpFlickr.php. * It appears to be working for me without further modification. * [jill_hughes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jill_hughes/) * (@jill_hughes) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893121) * I’ve changed all instances of http to https i the phpFlickr.php file too, but still not working 🙁 * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893122) * If you require assistance then, as per the [Forum Welcome](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Where_To_Post), please post your own topic instead of tagging onto someone else’s topic. * Thread Starter [vespino](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vespino/) * (@vespino) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893123) * Ehm, this is my post. I’m replying to the previous “solution” which also doesn’t work for me. * [jill_hughes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jill_hughes/) * (@jill_hughes) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893124) * Probably referring to me – just thought as it was the same problem, better than making lots of similar posts. But I will start a new one now. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893125) * These forums have [guidelines](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome). Please read them. As you will see, one of these guidelines – entitled [Where to Post](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Where_To_Post)– specifically states: * > Unless you are using the same version of WordPress on the same physical server > hosted by the same hosts with the same plugins, theme & configurations as the > original poster, **do not** post in someone else’s thread. **Start your own > topic**. * Please abide by this. * [jill_hughes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jill_hughes/) * (@jill_hughes) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893126) * Thank you for the clarification esmi, and I apologise for posting here. However, I cannot see where the original poster has stated the versions and thought it useful to all to post in the same place about the same issue. However, I have now posted my own thread and will not post here about the issue I am having. * [webmistress666](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webmistress666/) * (@webmistress666) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893127) * Finally (mostly) got this working by doing the following: * Edit lines 26, 27, and 28 of phpFlickr.php to be https:// instead of [http://](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/?output_format=md). * Also edit line 205 to be https:// * Get new API key and secret by going to the flickr site and doing that whole ridiculous song and freaking dance (I hate Yahoo so much right now, words would not encompass my absolute fury). * Deactivate the plugin and reactivate. * Photos now show, although I can’t generate an auth token because Flickr gives a callback error. Whatever. Good e-freaking-nough. * Thread Starter [vespino](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vespino/) * (@vespino) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893128) * Thanks for your efforts, but non of this is working for me. I have changed to“ Simple Flickr Set”. * [geralddavison](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geralddavison/) * (@geralddavison) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893129) * I got this to work tonight. * I edited the phpFlickr.php script. * I amended all the calls to flickr, either beginning [http://api.flickr.com/…](http://api.flickr.com/…);.. or [http://www.flickr.com/services/auth/…](http://www.flickr.com/services/auth/…);.. * to begin https:// * I did nothing else. No new API key (I don’t use this app to display non public content) and I didn’t have to deactivate and re-activate. * It just worked. * [gflaig](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gflaig/) * (@gflaig) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893130) * this would involve lines 26, 27, 28 for direct references to `http://api.flickr. com/..` and 205 for a programmatically created request and 361 , 363 for `http:// farm...` as well as 604 for `http://www.flickr.` * all others are comments * I did this with and without 361 , 363 I even did it for the comments * did NEVER work * any way of uploading your version somewhere, to compare ? * [DanielTulp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danieltulp/) * (@danieltulp) * [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/#post-4893132) * I also replaced all http:// calls with https:// in phpFlickr.php and flickr-gallery. php (not sure the latter is necessary) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 22 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘HTTPS API’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/flickr-gallery.svg) * [Flickr Gallery](https://wordpress.org/plugins/flickr-gallery/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/flickr-gallery/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flickr-gallery/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flickr-gallery/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flickr-gallery/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flickr-gallery/reviews/) * 22 replies * 14 participants * Last reply from: [LG WPOrg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leticiagolubov/) * Last activity: [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-api/page/2/#post-4893151) * Status: not resolved
