Error With Image Gallery

I was adding an image gallery to my app so users could post photos. I am using the BT server right now to set it up. I setup an image gallery and linked it to the image up loader. After I take a photo with the uploader it will not show in the image gallery. I am getting this error There was a problem parsing some configuration data. Please make sure that it is well-formed. I followed the directions. Any ideas or comments. Thanks TONY

So did I initially. That functionality caused me to back down from the server and use 1.5 for a current project. This is a great forum thread that provided tremendous guidance to me and explained a lot about working with Flickr: http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=62DFF9258E137E3E591E716&command=isSearching&currentPage=1&topicTitle=photo%20gallery&createdBy=&repliedBy=&minViews=-1&maxViews=-1&minReplies=-1&maxReplies=-1&forumCategory= Cheryl

Are you developing the app for iOS or android? I don't think android supports image uploading, but I can assure you that iOS does. I have two apps in the app store with fully functioning image gallery/image uploaders.

This is another great forum thread covering the topic. If you get a chance, download Sepala's Red Residential app referenced in the thread. Provides a wonderful example of what he did with these features in his app. http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?fid=25CB2D9EF82DA0B6A3BD6FC&tid=25CB2D9EF82DA0B6A3BD6FC Cheryl

In your control panel - when you click the image upload menu there will be a big description of how to use it...towards the bottom of these instructions will be a link that says "copy this link and paste it into your advanced config data" or something like that. Clicking this link brings up a new window with a bunch of random code - copy the web address of this page and paste it as the "data URL " under the advanced settings of the actual image gallery. Hopefully this isn't too confusing :)

Yeah I actually had a problem with the exact same error message. I realized I was pasting the wrong link into the data URL. Are you sure you're pasting the right link?

With the flicker account did you have to do anything else? I am running into a problem with the parse error again!

Thank you......... I didn't see instruction /.pdf file (README.Txt) included with this download for details about how to compile this app's source- code and run it on simulator.......My issue was.....I should have downloaded a .zip archive containing an Xcode project and multiple folders........
