Google photos - is still supported?

Post by urso_branco »

Google Picasa is no longer avalible, so I can't make new public album. So, my question is..... Is it still possible to use Phoca Gallery with Google Photos?

Hi,see similar posts in this forum. It is possible to display Google Picasa/Google+/Google Photos albums with help of Phoca Gallery. See demo:

https://www.phoca.cz/demo/picasa-album

The only limit is, you can display only public albums and Google for now has no tool to make the albums public.

There is even possible to use Imgur as external server in Phoca Gallery.

So, there is no possible to use Phoca Gallery for new users, becouse You can't set new folder as public? Am I right?

Maybe You can make something simmilar like in Ozio Gallery? They use Google API to authorize user.

Hi, I have implemented the imgur service, because Google API still changes and some specific API features which worked stopped to work, and so it keeps coming back - either the service or the API will change. Not sure but if I took a look at it last time, there was some option through some paid service, etc. For now I don't have the up-to-date info as this still changes :-(
