Wordpress Flickr Manager changes for 2.9

I recently started a new blog for my photos, which I’m starting to advertise for sale through Etsy (links to follow once I have some more things in place ) and I added the Wordpress Flickr Manager plugin so that I can easily pull in pictures from my Flickr account into the blog. However, it didn’t work with Wordpress 2.9

So, I made a couple of changes to some files and it seems to be working now – so, if anyone is having the same problems, here’s a list of the files that I changed:

• wordpress-flickr-manager/js/wfm-lightbox.php
• wordpress-flickr-manager/js/media-panel.php
• wordpress-flickr-manager/js/wfm-hs.php

In each of those files, remove any ‘@’ characters that are in the files, for example:

this: wfmJS(‘a[@rel*=flickr-mgr]‘).each(function() {
becomes: wfmJS(‘a[rel*=flickr-mgr]‘).each(function() {

Once you have made the changes, the plugin should work fine.
