Description Carlos Echenique 2017-08-25 06:15:18 UTC
Flickr plugin opens the browser and I momentarily see the URL requesting authentication, but then Flickr just goes to the home page instead of asking me for permission to allow the plugin to authenticate.

This problem is fixed in current implemntation (next 5.7.0). 

The pre-release installer is not yet recompiled with this fix, in case of you want to test.

Comment 5 Martin Senftleben 2019-04-17 05:17:18 UTC
Alright, I have a similar bug just reported, and now see that it seems to be different. I am using version 5.9 of kipi-plugins and version 6.0.0 of digikam, so according to this bug report the problem should be fixed, but it isn't or rather it has reappeared. In my case the export/export to flickr tool doesn't open a browser (which it never did!), and it doesn't request authentication at all. It just doesn't connect to flickr at all, it seems. So either this one has to be set to REOPENED, or I have to reopen the other bug report again...???

DigiKam-6.0.0 no longer uses Kipi-plugins. The Flickr tool in the Kipi-plugins is no longer developed. DigiKam-6.0.0 use an internal Flickr tool. With digiKam-6.1.0 a new plugin interface (DPlugins) is introduced. Flickr works out of digiKam-6.0.0. Flickr from another program that uses the Kipi-plugins will not work.

I just tested the Flickr tool again. Add new access-> Browser opens-> enter credentials-> allow digiKam rights-> Flickr Tool is logged in. Uploading images works.
