Great plugin! I also have feature request for 1.1. The posibility to insert one image without classes or other styling. Just one pure image

Keep up the good work!

Brilliant! I would love to be able to include the videos on my picasa album too.

Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback.

Just released version 1.1 which adds the missing image sizes of 288,320 and 400. Note that these are only supported in uncropped formats.

Thickbox support is now working properly - Thanks Darkmatter for reporting the bug.

it’s the best plugin about picasa,thanks!

[...] Picasa image express [...]

Do you have a thickbox plugin installed?

Picasa Image Express only adds the HTML (class=’thickbox” on an A tag) required to trigger a Thickbox - it doesn’t include the actual Thickbox code as part of the plugin.

Here is a Thickbox plugin which I can confirm does work:

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/thickbox/

Yes, I had the thickbox installed… but I’ll try again with the one you linked to here. I guess you’ll hear more from me if it wont work

pretty pleeeease

Sorry for the double post. Just rated it 5-stars on the Plugin repository!

Great tool, although I am finding a small issue.

I prefer fairly large thumbnails, about 500px wide. When I set the thumbnail size in the settings to 512 and insert an image no thumbnail shows up in the post. If I set the thumbnail size when inserting the image, the largest size available in the drop down is 160px.

What am I missing?

thanks for the plugin

Best Picasa plugin !!

If doesn’t work in your blog, try add Lightbox2 plugin.

Thanks a lot!

I made a support for Highslide in this plugin. If somebody is interested, contact me sowhatҨkakas.lv

This is a fantastic plugin — just what I was looking for! But I am unable to select multiple photos in either Safari or Camino on a Mac with Flash 10. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Just wanted to say multiple select is now working for me — not sure what the issue was at first. Many thanks again for a great plugin - just the right tool for the job!

Wow. This plugin is pretty awesome and just what I need. I’m trying to optimise mu blog by hosting most of it’s images in good old picasa, and this little plug makes adding single images to posts about as easy as I could imagine! Very good stuff.

I end up deleting a lot of the code it generates, like the class=”" it adds to each image etc, and the max image width restriction attribute I often strip out. Little things like that are a small price to pay for such awesome functionality though!

I’d love the ability to configure it to just insert an image but no classes, width and height or maxwidth restrictions set though

Anyway, thanks Psytoy!

Settings for Picasa Image Express is not allowing me to change Picasa User from psytoy78. I change the name to my Picasa User name, the press Save Changes at the bottom of the settings page. The screen then changes to display
Are you sure you want to do this?
Please try again.
And the tab title (Firefox3.01) shows WordPress Failure Notice.

I have tried to use this plugin but the pop up displays nothing, no matter which picasa account i set up? Any ideas?

Want to say thanks very much for your work on this plugin. I had no luck with the bogdan.ro plugin so I was relieved to see that this was just what I needed.

Part way through I realized that I’d be really happy if the process was entirely automated, where the php checked Picasaweb and listed all albums in a sidebar. Clicking on the preview image would bring you to a secondary page that listed all the thumbs (and opened via Lightbox). This would be extremely useful as I would just have my photos on a sidebar and never have to make a separate blog post if I added a new album.

But hey that may pie in the sky. Kudos for what’s already been done!

Okay - I finally overcame the problem in internationalizing (before being able to localize) your plugin, Scrawl.

I’ve taken the liberty of slightly modding your plugin, just to accommodate other translations, as well as adding a Spanish translation of it - as with other WordPress plugins, it follows the locale set in the wp-config.php file (if it’s set to es_ES it’ll show up in Spanish; else, the English version.) And given the slight modifications involved, I’ve taken the liberty of bumping the version by a minor point to 1.1.1 and clarifying / documenting the minor change in the readme.txt.

Feel free to download that slightly hacked plugin over here - and please feel free also to incorporate whatever change in your official release.

Hi all,

Just a quick note to say development on this plugin isn’t dead. I intend to release version 2 sometime this week.

Notable features include:

Better integration with Wordpress’s image properties panel (captions, alignment, etc), Highslide support, Additional gallery alignment options, Cleaner HTML with less redundant tags, Multilanguage ready.

I have also finally fixed the bug relating to thumbnails larger than 400 not inserting properly.

Truth be told, not much will have changed on the surface of the plugin. Underneath the hood however is a different story. Hell is trying to decipher what on earth TinyMCE does to inserted HTML. You can’t imagine the frustration trying to work out what post-formatting of HTML it does when switching between WYSIWYG and source view. Hence the giant jump to version 2. It makes it all seem worth the effort.

If you wish to contribute a translation in your language, contact me at scrawl AT psytoy.net.

Other than that, watch this space

It works great on Wordpress 2.7
Amazing work there, plugin managment its really awesome and works like a charm.

Thanks PsyToy =)

Divs not displaying on the same line in WP 2.7. I am using a modified theme so this could be the problem but i don’t see why. Currently looking at your CSS to see if there is a fix but I have tried a few things and nothing.

I also tried out this plugin, but even if I enter the right URL to my Picasa-Account, i get the following error:

“Unable to laod albums
Please double check the Picasa user name. Additionally, check your have albums are setup as publicly available”

In the plugin option i configured http://picasaweb.google.com/Duerrbi
In a browser i can reach this URL, but in Wordpress Post-Editor.

great plugin, i love it so much

Thanks for this plugin!
BUT: Inserting images does not work in Firefox but fine in Safari (using mac at least). The INSERT IMAGE button in the flash window does not work.

Great plugin!

It would be great if the image captions also changed in my blog automatically when I changed/updated them in my Picasa webalbum. Is this a feature that could be implemented? (or is it perhaps already avalilable, but I just haven´t figured it out yet?)

Cheers!

Hi buddy,

Been using your plugin for some time now. Really like it. I do however, have some problems with viewing galleries in IE7+8. For som reason, when one inserts a single image on a page or post, everything works, both in ie6+7+8, Chrome and Firefox. But if you insert multiple images, it doesn’t work in IE! No images are shown, although it works fine, if viewed with chrome or ff!

Anyway thought you should know. And let me know if you have a solution

/Michael

[...] 自从IE8正式发布了之后我也更新了，其实我是用Firefox的，IE只是用来上BTChina下种子而已。今天忽然发现之前发的有图片的页面在IE8上显示不出图片，看了源码，里面有图片的链接，是CSS的原因。这些图片是用Picasa Image Express这个插件添加的，看来原因就是这个插件了。 [...]

I‘m using IE8 8.0.6001.18702.
When i changed the code [if lt ie 8] to [if IE 8] in picasa-image-express.php , the CSS for IE8 works, it shows pictures in vertical line not horizontal, but i’ve set it in horizontal. It’s same while using the test version.

Could you please mention when the update for 2.8 compatibility will be ready?
It’s a very useful plugin for my blog

Hi,

I am testing Picasa and WordPress at the moment and this is a really great plugin.
But I have one question:
Who do I have to select a size for the option “large image size”?
If I select “800″, the parameter “?imgmax=800″ is appended to the link.
If I delete this parameter within the link, the picture is shown with original size (this is what I prefer, because my images in Picasa are larger than 800px).
So it is possible to disable the option (e.g. like the parameter “-1″ for margins)?

Hi Alain,

Picasa does allow you to direct link to images of sizes 912, 1024, 1152, 1280, 1440 and 1600 but if you try to embed them into a webpage, it will fail. It’s a limitation put in by Picasa. Might be able to do something for version 2.1.

[pie] appears when you insert a gallery of images. The tag is only visible during editing. [pie left] will left align the gallery, [pie right] will align it right, etc.

I included this tag to make it easier to insert text before and after a gallery. It also works as a visual cue when editing a post so you know where a gallery starts and ends.

Some people might want to insert a bunch of images into a post but not have them formatted using Picasa Image Express’s gallery styles. In this case, all they have to do is delete the [pie] tags.

Awesome plugin - thanks. It would be great to have the option to insert a text link (instead of a thumbnail), that expands or connects to the Picasa photo. Sometimes I want to have an all-text page, but have an image appear in a lightbox when the user clicks on a phrase.
