    Hi,
    I'm using this widget in http://www.xerraires.net, and in vilaseka.apalankada.net (the last one is a test site). I can't see the flickr photos in xerraires.net but i can see it in vilaseka.apalankada.net.
    I've tried to disable all plugins but no luck. Can anybody give me a hand on this?
    Thanks in advance.
    PS:I have WPMU 2.6.2 on both sites.

    Can you give us some specifics please? Like the url of the feed you're trying to use, any reports in the error logs, etc. Also when you bring up the widget, is the url that you entered still in there or is it giving you the error about not finding a proper feed?

    Scratch that. I see images at the vilaseka.apalankada.net url. The rss pull was probably a mispull and it finally grabbed it correctly this time around.

    Hi tdjcbe,
    I'm using the same rss on both sites. My apache's error log don't show anything related to this. One shows images and the other not.
    I will post here any info you need, just tell me what you need.
    Thanks a lot :)

    If you compare the source files of both sites, the first one is stripping the image URLs.

    <img alt='Esmorzar Xerraire' title='Esmorzar Xerraire' src='' border='0'>

    Why? I dunno yet, but that might help narrow it down.

    And that's one freaky looking goat.

    I apreciate so much your help. I'm still lost, don't know where to look or what to do. I've compared de code between the 2 site's files just to be sure i'm using the same plugin, and.. same plugin on both sites.
    I'm glad you like the goat , that's a funny test pic. XD

    Are both domains on the same server?

    Hi andrea_r,
    Xerraires.net is hosted at hostinet.com and vilaseka.apalankada.net is hosted at my home computer. I usually test the plugins at home before i upload it to xerraires.net, that's a test site.
    I have to say this widget was working like a charm at xerraires.net a few time ago. Maybe before 2.6 update, sorry i don't remember.

    - What's the difference between this and Donncha's flickr widget? ANy new features?

    - It would be a better idea to use wp_register_widget_control and wp_register_sidebar_widget as they allow you to add in a description for the widget. Else you get people asking "What's a flickr?" all the time.
