March 13th, 2010 · View Comments · Uncategorized

You can add a Flickr Slideshow to your WordPress Blog using this single line of code. All you need to do this is a Flickr account, the tag you want to use and you’re done. That’s it. Here’s how to create the slideshow.

Adding a Flickr Slideshow to your WordPress Blog

To do this:

1. Go to your Flickr Photostream, e.g. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ivanwalsh/

2. Click Tags, for example, http://www.flickr.com/photos/ivanwalsh/tags/

3. Select the tag you want, e.g. Cordoba http://www.flickr.com/photos/ivanwalsh/tags/cordoba/

4. Change the tag in this line of code to your tag

<iframe align=center src=http://www.flickr.com/slideShow/index.gne?user_id=10883933@N07&#038;tags=cordoba frameBorder=0 width=500 scrolling=no height=500></iframe>

5. Change the width and height if you want.

6. Paste the iframe to your blog! That’s it.
