    I was wondering if there was a way to make it so that when the image is clicked on, it doesn’t take you to a blank page. Instead, just like in Facebook, it stays within the page and creates a gallery to scroll through.

    Is that possible to do?

    Very nice, I really appreciate the easy of setup and execution. Impressive, for yourself and to all my visitors. Kudos.

    First of all, Thanks for brilliant wp-plugin!
    Just one thing… In one of the albums I have uploaded to facebook I have 46 pics, but on my homepage it somehow turns out to be 66 (20 of the pics are shown twice). Is there anything I can do to solve this?

    Since the recent facebook upgrades, I have not been able to add new albums, or re-cache existing albums. Any ideas?

    Having trouble with the new plugin not showing the albums in the management section once I have imported…
    Worked fine on previous versions.

    Thanks for the plugin, It’s great. Just one problem (it seems others may have also had). Fotobook imports the albums from Facebook on installation but after adding new photo’s I get an error in the managment section that says

    Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘FacebookRestClientException’ with message ‘Session key invalid or no longer valid’

    Can you help with this or advise as to what the problem is, (I have tried removing the plugin and re-adding it)

    just a comment… when somebody click on the Name’s Comment on this page, takes you to their website, but in the same browser… if you can do that open in a new browser, will be better, that way people can still read the rest of the comments, and they are not leaving your web.

    looks quit stable, will it be possible to open the vision for ordering the pictures; you click on a photo, then you have the possibility to order a quantity, use a delivery address, post & packing costs, include paypal for upfront payment

    great job

    Hi I’m using the fotobook and it is great..
    I also added the random pictures in my sidebar, I encountered one ‘error/malfunction’(though not sure if it’s specifically my problem).

    Very often, the thumbnails lead me to another picture then shown on the thumbnail. And it seems that they take me to the same wrong picture everytime: like photo 127 of album 5.
    Is there something I can do about this?

    very nice work! one of the best looking – integrated plugins I have seen. I hope you plan on making more! I also would really like if you could make this work with group photos. Also, do you plan on making plugins to pull and push posts?

    It’s very cool of you to make all this useful plugin. Do you have IT background? From what I see on the blog, you’re more in to a music guy :D

    Go to the Fotobook settings panel and read and there’s information about setting up a Cron script to automatically import albums.

    This seems like an amazing plugin, to bad it only works with facebook (being that I dont use facebook) maybe one day this plugin can expand to be used with other sites.

    Hey! We’re using Fotobook to show our pictures from our marriage on our wedding-website ;-)
    Can you tell me which lighbox plugin do you use. I tried so many but no one works :-(
    thanks!

  24. Paul on August 9th, 2009

    Now it works. Lightbox plus is compatible ;-)
    I’ve donated 15 USD right now. Great work!

    Would be really perfect when you exclude somethin like a language.php for easier translating.

    Best wishes from Vienna, Austria

    Fotobook stopped working after updating to Wordpress 2.8.4. I get the error message “Fotobook encountered an error while retrieving your photos. [Error #453]”

    Is there a solution? Thanks!

    OMG this plugin is amazing!! I’ve got it on mine and a hair/makeup site which is photo intensive, but not needing something like a photo CMS. Anyone looking for a lightbox plugin, check out the one I’m using on my site. It’s WP FancyZoom. I like it because it allows the visitor to scroll through all photos without having to continue clicking on each one. Plus, it looks like a Mac thing, and I dig that. http://granades.com/wp-fancyzoom-wordpress-plugin/

    This plugin is great and does exactly what I need it to EXCEPT… I need it to pull the pictures from my “Fan Page” instead of my “profile page”. The plugin would need to somehow check for any “pages” besides the profile page and if there are, ask which page to import the albums from. I would be more than willing to pay $$ if you can make this minor tweak for me.
