What is my Flickr screen name?

You can find your screen name on your Flickr account/settings page, http://www.flickr.com/account, under ‚Your screen name‘.

How do I get an API key

The following Youtube video explains how to get an API key for the Flickr Set Slideshows plugin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lq1XRx6dsDU

Some of my Flickr photosets are not appearing in my set list. Why?

Only the sets that are public can be used by this plugin. Private sets (which is any set that contains at least one private picture) will not be returned by Flickr to be publicly displayed as a slideshow.
Make sure that all the sets you want to show in your website are public. If the problem persists, please get in touch (see below).

Where do I go to report bugs and for complaints, moans, suggestions or to sing your praises?
