Flick return Errror code 403

Please provide me with a URL.

Where are you seeing the 403 error code? It doesn’t show up on the front-end of your site.

When I try to pull information directly based on your photoset id (72177720318027668) from the API, I get a “Photoset not found” error in Flickr. When I look for the photoset via your user id (81723459@N04), it doesn’t show up.

And you have authentication set up? A 403 error corresponds to unauthorized access, so one possibility is that somehow your tokens have been invalidated, and that you might need to redo authentication.

Can you provide me with a link to a page where you have a non-private album and the error is still occurring?

That’s fine, but do you have a page on your site without private albums? Can you provide me with a link to it?

Photonic’s code for Flickr authentication has not been modified for many years, so the issue you are facing is not triggered due to Photonic. The last release of Photonic was in early May, so if your issue started this morning, you can safely rule out Photonic.

As a 403 error is strictly issued due to problems with authentication, here is one thing you can try: ensure that you have the latest WP version, delete your Flickr authentication credentials within Photonic, and reload a page that has non-private photos/albums on it. See if that loads. If it doesn’t load, provide me with that URL as well.

If a non-private album loads without authentication, then the problem is with your site – while you might have had no Flickr changes, you might have had a change with another plugin (which impacted your site’s security configuration), or there may have been an update to your site’s configuration from your host.
