Topic: Picasa photos in wordpress using ithemes html module?

I understand that the wordpress plugin does not yet work with picasa. I am using ithemes builder as a wordpress theme. One of the options that is has is an easy way to make page layouts using solely html. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsggFrD2jEc (2:39)

Does it seem possible that I could make a juicebox picasa gallery within a wordpress site, perhaps utilizing this html module that ithemes offers as you see in the video?

Does this information give something of a workaround? http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/how … wordpress/

Re: Picasa photos in wordpress using ithemes html module?

I understand that the wordpress plugin does not yet work with picasa.

With WP-Juicebox (the dedicated Juicebox plugin for WordPress), it is possible to use a Picasa Web Album as the source of images.
In the gallery settings window, select 'Picasa Web Album' as the 'Image Source' and type in your 'Picasa User Id' and 'Picasa Album Name'.

An alternative method of embedding a Juicebox gallery in a WordPress page or post (no matter what the source of images is) would be to:
Create your Juicebox gallery on your computer with JuiceboxBuilder-Pro.
Upload the entire gallery folder to your web server using an FTP program such as Filezilla.
Embed the gallery in your WordPress page or post using the baseUrl embedding method documented here.
