It worked. Thanks lilmaouz!

From this Flickr Group:
http://www.flickr.com/groups/1882400@N23/

Using this Gigya Code:
[gigya src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=109615" allowFullScreen="true" flashvars="offsite=true&lang=fr-fr&page_show_url=%2Fgroups%2F1882400%40N23%2Fpool%2Fshow%2F&page_show_back_url=%2Fgroups%2F1882400%40N23%2Fpool%2F&group_id=1882400@N23&jump_to=&start_index=" width="500"]

The slideshow now looks like this:

If you've enabled autoembed under your Media settings, you can simply paste the URL of the slideshow on its own line and unlinked in your post. Like this:

Hi! Try this one http://www.flickr.com//groups/1874051@N21/pool/show/?embed=1

Hi! I've successfully embedded Flickr Set Slideshows using the gigya code below:

[gigya src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=71649" width="500" flashvars="offsite=true&lang=en-us&page_show_url=/photos/thechancepassenger/sets/72157628631846317/show/&page_show_back_url=/photos/thechancepassenger/sets/72157628631846317/&set_id=72157628631846317&jump_to=" allowFullScreen="true" ]

All I have to do each time is change the Set ID to display different sets of photos. However, I want to do this with Flickr Groups instead in order to work around the 200-photo limit of Flickr.

Been trying to play around with the above code in order to embed a slidewho of this group: http://www.flickr.com/groups/1874051@N21/, but with no luck. All I get is a blackbox with this code:
[gigya src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=71649" width="500" flashvars="offsite=true&lang=en-us&page_show_url=/photos/thechancepassenger/groups/1874051@N21/show/&page_show_back_url=/photos/thechancepassenger/groups/1874051@N21/&group_id=1874051@N21&jump_to=" allowFullScreen="true" ]

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

@tt: Thanks (I didn't even know what a debt clock is)!

@jischinger: Thanks to timethief, here's a couple of items for you to paste in a text widget:
[gigya src="http://oddhammer.com/tutorials/debt_clock/US_debt_clock_small.swf" quality="high" width="230" height="40" ]
[gigya src="http://oddhammer.com/tutorials/debt_clock/US_debt_clock_dynamic.swf" quality="high" width="340" height="155" flashVars="topString=ADD TEXT HERE&bottomString=ADD TEXT HERE" ]
Dimensions can be changed.

@Panos
I recognize that jischinger has not replied but want to share the link to Flash widgets for the US Debt Clock that I found with you. It's here http://oddhammer.com/tutorials/debt_clock/

@jischinger: Please link to widgets you have found and I'll show you how to install them (if they're flash).

Flash is a serious security issue for a multi-user platform like wordpress.COM since bad flash introduced by a blogger could possibly bring down the entire system (ask Facebook, etc. about that as they have all been victims of bad flash/javascript).

And there is a lot of badly written flash and javascript out there that opens security holes on any site it is used on whether on purpose or by mistake.

A lot of people can write script, but far fewer can writing secure script.

roof or not, over your head or not,
it is up to you to find a plain html counter
or a flash counter.
Plain html code will work on wp.com. 'n' Panos can help if you have a plain flash code.

You could just link to something like what you want?

There is even a category on his blog called "gigya" where he covers some of the solutions he has come up with.

But while it doesn't look like much, it IS fancy. That's what we're telling you. We can't do more than give you the instructions. Go to http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/ and find the posts he's done about widgets. Those are the best instructions there are.

^ that was all over my head

Find one that works with flash and then you can use the gigya code Panos has been writing about to add it to your blog.

That code works only with flash. If your code uses iframe or scripts or other forbidden code, then it won't work.

jischinger — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 01:43:19 +0000

i want to put it in the wiget so I need a code to slip it into the text option and yes I want it to update auto - doesn't matter if it is ongoing every min is fine

I get the impression this is not allowed tho

I already gave a link to the blog where he's posted the embed codes.

thesacredpath on "widget - debt clock"

thesacredpath — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 01:38:22 +0000

To have one that is continually updating, it would require either flash or javascript, and those are not allowed on wordpress.COM for security reasons.

If it is flash, there is the possibility that the gigya shortcode would allow one to be placed on your blog. Panos is the undisputed king of gigya. Hopefully he will visit this thread and take a look at it and see if it can be done.

Animated? You didn't say anything about that.

Are you talking about YOUR debt? just use one of the countdown widgets or progress meters. If you're talking bout the national debt, you'll go insane trying to keep it up to date, but presumably if you have the accurate numbers, you can do it.

jischinger on "widget - debt clock"

jischinger — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 01:23:28 +0000

maybe I'm missing it - I don't see an animated debt clock

raincoaster on "widget - debt clock"

Yes, they do. ONLY things that work at WordPress.com are in that thread.

jischinger on "widget - debt clock"

jischinger — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 01:17:18 +0000

thanks but none of them work in the widgets text on wp.com

Many of them do. Panos has a series of posts about it on http://wpbtips.wordpress.com and there are many, many widget codes here:

thesacredpath — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 22:31:37 +0000

Look around at the sites that have them. Look for plain HTML code, nothing with "iframe" or "script" or "embed" in it.

jischinger on "widget - debt clock"

jischinger — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 21:58:21 +0000
