Drupal 8 Release

There is a dev release out now for Drupal 8.

The Flickr module embeds media hosted on Flickr.com in many possible ways on your site.

In a node, block or field.
As single photos, albums or slideshows.
Supports both Colorbox and Lightbox.
Album titles and photo captions contain the information available on Flickr, optionally also including author, location and date details.
Grab Flickr media also dynamically from the node author's Flickr account and/or based on node taxonomy terms, a date field or a geofield/location. Also searching all public available Flickr photos.

Keep It Simple & Straightforward

Why install and configure a bunch of modules for image management and geo tagging? The Flickr module makes life easier, both for you (site builder) and your client (site editor). Use Flickr.com to upload / organize photos and this module to embed them on your site. Flickr is already the trusted source for millions of embedded photos on the web.

Plus:

Use less resources on your server.
Enhance site performance, loading content contemporarily from your server and Flickr's.
Avoid copyright issues. There is no copy. Embedded images are not on your server.
Many images are available under CC License. Fill a site quick with high quality photos.

Main Features

Embedded Flickr photos (and videos) can be displayed as
- a single image
- an album of thumbnails
- a slideshow
in
All with configurable captions and in many sizes.
Open embedded Flickr photos in Colorbox (recommended), Lightbox or alike with a configurable image size.
Embedded Flickr photos will never be wider than the region they are in (responsive by default).
Applying the 'enlarge' or 'zoom' style makes images look good on Hi-Res displays (retina) while using the higher resolution images also on normal screens by enlarging them on mouseover (hover). Clicking will still open an image in Colorbox/Lightbox.
An automatic configurable caption under the embedded images with the Flickr title, date taken (time ago), where (location, reverse geocoding from exif data) and by who (Real Name or Flickr username). Clicking the location opens a map in a new tab that shows all user's pictures on that specific location.
Shows the longer Flickr description on hover if it exists.
Show user/group photo streams or photosets (Flickr albums) as a responsive slideshow that allows visitors also to toggle to full-screen mode.
Filter on Flickr tags. These can be taken dynamically from a node's taxonomy terms, making a block with Flickr photos context sensitive. It changes depending on the page the block is shown on. In combination with the node author this allows users to have their relevant photos being displayed alongside a post automatically. Also a date and/or geofield can be used as context.
Grab public CC licensed Flickr photos by tags simply omitting to specify a user ID or setting it to 'public'. Also dynamically based on node terms, a date and/or geofield. Optionally change the license restrictions in the settings.
Filter on media type, for example to exclude videos.

Installation / upgrading / configuration

Help wanted

More than 75 people were actively involved in the development. It is thanks to their feedback the module is practically bug free and stuffed with useful features.

Become a tester (>40) by reporting bugs or ideas for improvements.
Become a committer (>35) by solving solving a Novice issue.
Become a co-maintainer (8) by solving one Ninja or some Expert issues.
Join a translation team after which you can add Flickr translation strings for your language (another method).
#2321467: Translation strings provides a list of just 10 text strings that cover all the visitor facing text in photo captions and album titles. For most cases the administration interface (e.g. configuration pages) can be left in English.
Manual code reviews are appreciated. Could code be more efficient, shorter, simpler?

Cross browser tested

Rendering of the images and captions generated by this module has been tried on many different browsers thanks to BrowserStack.
