Hi Andres Preuss,

I've tested and installed the latest version of EasyBlog 5.0.14 in your site. It seems like it is working fine now.
Can you give it a try and let us know whether does the issue still persist ?

Hi Andres Preuss,

Sorry for late reply to this,

I have applied some fix in this file -> JoomlaFolder\components\com_easyblog\themes\wireframe\mediamanager\filegroup.php

If the private picture is still not exist, can you point us how to access with your private photo from your Flickr account?

Hi Andres,

I have modified on this file -> JoomlaFolder/administrator/components/com_easyblog/includes/oauth/adapters/flickr/client.php and follow Flickr API key get the private image.

privacy_filter (Optional)
Return photos only matching a certain privacy level. This only applies when making an authenticated call to view a photoset you own. Valid values are:
1 public photos
2 private photos visible to friends
3 private photos visible to family
4 private photos visible to friends & family
5 completely private photos


Can you give it a check now, it should show private photo also. Hope this help.

Hi Andres Preuss,

I'm really sorry that delayed of this reply,

I've help you updated this file JoomlaFolder/administrator/components/com_easyblog/includes/oauth/adapters/flickr/client.php

// LINE 161 - 168
$options = array('method' => 'flickr.people.getPhotos',
'format' => 'json',
'nojsoncallback' => 1,
'user_id' => 'me',
'privacy_filter' => 1,
'per_page' => 500,
'extras' => 'date_upload,original_format,media,description,license'
);

// Replace with

$options = array('method' => 'flickr.people.getPhotos',
'format' => 'json',
'nojsoncallback' => 1,
'user_id' => 'me',
'per_page' => 500,
'extras' => 'date_upload,original_format,media,description,license'
);


Removed the `privacy_filter` API so that it will retrieve all of your photo from Flickr. Hope this help.

Hey Andres,

Yes, what I provided the hack at above before, is not include Easyblog core file, that was only hack it for you.

In other word you have to update the file every time for next update.

Hello Andres,

There is no point in listing private pictures on your media manager because you can never embed that image into your blog post. It will never be seen by users.

When you embed an image from Flickr on EasyBlog, it only gets the direct image source link from Flickr. If your photo is private, Flickr wouldn't render anything.
