The Flickr Module

    With the Flickr module, you can easily add a Flickr photostream to your Content & Apps View.

    Adding a Flickr Module to a Oracle Social Marketing Content & Apps View

    All modules are added to a View in the same way with our drag-and-drop interface. To get more information on this, see the Building a View: Adding Modules and Content to Views in Content & Apps help article.

    Once you have added a module and given it a name, the module will open for you to edit it or add content. Back on the View layout, you'll see a callout bubble next to your module - click the triangle for controls for your module. This callout will not appear on your published View and your new module will not appear on your Facebook Tab until you click Publish.

    Adding a Flickr Photostream to a Flickr Module

    When you drag-and-drop a Flickr module onto a View, it will automatically open to the edit page for that module. To add photos to a module you've already created:

    1. Next to your Flickr module you’ll see a callout bubble. Click the green triangle next to the title to show your options.
    2. Click Edit Module. You will be taken to the Edit Flickr section.
    3. Enter your Flickr user ID in the text field provided. Your Flickr ID will be in a format similar to: "12037949632@N01". If you don't know your Flickr ID, you can look it up at www.idgettr.com
    4. Click Update.

    Your module will now appear on your View with a photo from the Flickr photostream displayed. Users can use the arrows on either side of the image to scroll through the photostream.

    Customizing a Flickr Module

    All customization happens in the brand CSS page.

    All modules take up 100% of the containers they are in, so you can resize them to whatever size you need with CSS.
