This method does not work
there is something to offer?

Hello Jan!

First of all i have to say thank you for your great phoca gallery app!

The workaround from Sven Bluege doesn't work since 12th February 2017. Google has updated his API's at this time. The changelog, important instructions and additional software can you find here: https://developers.google.com/picasa-we ... leasenotes

Sven Bluege (Event Gallery) and Alessandro Rossi (Ozio Gallery) have embedded the new Google rules to connect their latest app versions with google photos.

They major key is: Everyone have to create his OWN Google client ID to connect the App (Phoca Gallery) with Google Photos. Here are the instructions how to create this own API. The following Text comes from Ozio Gallery:

**************************
Instructions

To create for free a Google client ID and client secret, create a Google API Console project,set up an OAuth client ID, and register your JavaScript origins:

Go to the Google API Console.
From the project drop-down, select an existing project,or create a new one by selecting Create a new project.
In the sidebar under "API Manager", select Credentials, then select the OAuth consent screen tab.
Choose an Email Address, specify a Product Name, and press Save.
In the Credentials tab, select the New credentials drop-down list, and choose OAuth client ID.
Under Application type, select Web application.
Register the origins from which your app is allowed to access the Google APIs, as follows. An origin is a unique combination of protocol, hostname, and port.
In the Authorized JavaScript origins field, enter the origin for your app. You can enter multiple origins to allow for your app to run on different protocols, domains, or subdomains. You cannot use wildcards. In the example below, the second URL could be a production URL.

http://localhost:8080
https://myproductionurl.example.com

The Authorized redirect URI field does not require a value. Redirect URIs are not used with JavaScript APIs.
Press the Create button.
From the resulting OAuth client dialog box, copy the Client ID and Client Secret. The Client ID and Secret lets your app access enabled Google APIs.

Hey Jan!
I think in this way your phantastic Phoca Gallery could be run with Googled Photos in future Times.

Hi, thank you very much for the guide, I will take a look at it for some of the next version.

Thank you very much.

Would be nice to add Google Photo support as Picasa is not working anymore.
Thanks!

Hi, not sure if you have read other posts in this forum, there is no problem with Google Photo support, see:
https://www.phoca.cz/phocacart - the images are displayed with help of Phoca Gallery (Phoca Photo) plugin and they display the images from Google Photos.

The problem is, there is no way to make the Google Photos album public in Google Photos - see previous posts.

Hi Jan, sorry for the "too quick response". I read all the post regarding the problem of making the albums public not working anymore.
I was facing the exact same problem when adding new albums.
So it would be great if support could be added to use the albums with an Google client ID and client secret.

Hi, do you have any specific information about this method (client ID and client secret)?
