When we attempt to import the image at https://www.flickr.com/photos/158885743@N02/41195782602/in/dateposted/, the following error is displayed on the Omeka Flickr import page.

"Error importing photo. Unable to retrieve photo info from Flickr. Please check your url. We asked for photo ID 41195782602 and flickr responded: no response"

Thank you for your help.

Thanks for reporting this! Unfortunately our developer resources are a bit maxed out at the moment, so we don't have time to look into this problem in detail. My guess is that the plugin assumes that the Flicker URL is in a standard format, while Flickr is OK with a variety of URL formats. For example, the url you listed includes '/in/dateposted' at the end, which is not strictly necessary to display the image url. You might try ingesting " https://www.flickr.com /photos/158885743@N02/41195782602 https://www.flickr.com/photos/158885743@N02/41195782602/in/dateposted/" instead.

Hope this helps, Ned
