Incorrect Flickr URL being generated

^{Originally posted by **eDad2003** July 1, 2024} First of all, I'm so happy to have found this repo! It's really great that BirdNet-Pi will live on! I was wondering if this is problem is experienced by anyone else? I added the Flickr API yesterday, so I now have inline images associated with detections. When the image is clicked, you get a popup window with an expanded image including 3 URLs - Image link, Author link, and License URL. The 'Image link' is always reported by Flickr as 'not found'. By playing around a bit, I determined that the URL is generated incorrectly - the image is not at AuthorURL+ID. See below for samples. I traced it back to PHP in overview.php and todays_detections.php. Here's the code I changed to correct it: `$modaltext = $flickr_cache["author_url"] . "/" . $flickr_cache["id"];` `//next line added by me to correct Flickr 'Image Link' URL` `$modaltext = str_replace("people", "photos", $modaltext);` It works... kinda. There must be some caching or something else going on. I manually edit those PHP files (via file manager), save it, and then do a system reboot, but sometimes the incorrect version is still present. I'm kinda confused, but I'm new to this. **Working URL - After code change**  **Incorrect URL - Before code change**

@eDad2003 thanks for the analysis. And yes, there is indeed caching.

On your patched system you could delete scripts/flickr.db and reboot to reset the cache.

Pull request opened. I also added a "Clear Flickr Cache" button in the settings.
