Topic: Set ID not working with new Flickr API

I had previously made a bunch of galleries only using the Set ID of different sets from Flickr, and if I open an existing one and save it with the new JB 1.4.2 it is fine, but if I start a NEW Gallery, and simple add a Flickr Set ID, it says "Flickr Images Not Found" when I click Load Images. The User ID works fine, and Tags work fine, but I'm hitting a brick wall with Sets. I really need this feature to work. It is already a paint to go back and re-save/upload every gallery.

Please let me know if it's something I'm doing wrong.

Re: Set ID not working with new Flickr API

I am able to create a new gallery using JuiceboxBuilder-Pro v1.4.2, enter a test Flickr Set ID of my own and the images display OK as expected when I click 'Load Images'.
According to Flickr's own help forum, they seem to be having a few problems at the moment (although I do not see any relating direct to Flickr Sets and the API) so the problem may be with Flickr themselves.

Please post the Set ID that you are using and I will try it for myself and post back with my results.
In the meantime, you could try using this test Set ID of my own to see if this works for you (it currently works for me): 72157629353156737.

Re: Set ID not working with new Flickr API

Your Set ID is not working for me. How can I completely uninstall JB Pro and re-install? Maybe there are library files conflicting somewhere? What are your thoughts?

Re: Set ID not working with new Flickr API

It must be something on my end. Here is a SET ID of mine that won't work on my end:

7215764520492674472157645204926744

Since yours won't work either, I have to imagine it is something local. I just bought and downloaded the new version of JB Pro today. I took my old JB application and threw it in the trash.

I also have an old version of SV Pro, but I can't imagine that is affecting this install at all.

Re: Set ID not working with new Flickr API

OK, I figured it out by posting this! When I'm pasting in the copied Set ID from the Flickr URL field, it is double pasting it like this:


7215764520492674472157645204926744

when it should just be: 72157645204926744

Since it pastes just fine into any other application, I have to conclude that you have a bug when pasting (maybe just into Set ID, maybe in more fields) into JB PRO Set ID that is causing double input from the paste.

Hope this helps you guys for an update!

Re: Set ID not working with new Flickr API

Thank you for reporting this problem. It has already been reported in this forum thread.

The double-paste issue seems to happen:
(1) Only on Mac (not on PC).
(2) Only when pasting via keyboard (not via mouse context menu).
(3) Only under Adobe AIR v14.0 (not previous versions).

I have notified the developers of this problem but it looks like there is, indeed, a problem with pasting via keyboard in Adobe AIR v14.0. Please see these links for further details:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1495749
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?eve … id=3775354

In the meantime, workarounds would be to either:
(1) Paste the text via mouse context menu.
(2) Type the text into the input field.
(3) Paste the text via keyboard and manually delete the duplicate entry.
(4) Revert to a previous version of Adobe AIR (not necessary if using #1, #2 or #3 above). Previous versions of Adobe AIR can be downloaded from this web page.
