"Search for Album Name" doesn't work #79

Closed eigenwillig closed 5 years ago

eigenwillig commented 6 years ago

The "Search for Album Name" never returns any result for me.

Operating System: Linux 4.16.8-1-ARCH

Do they contain special characters? Any error in the log file?

eigenwillig commented 6 years ago

I've just searching for "CIA", but the search results table always stays empty for me.

I've even tried to enter URLs there. Could you please add an option to directly enter them? I don't need the search, but there is no other way to use your tool. Thanks!

It only searches among your own album; do you have albums whose name contain CIA?

eigenwillig commented 6 years ago

And how to download other people's albums? Isn't that the purpose of this program?

robermann commented 6 years ago

It downloads only your own photostreams. From https://flickrdownloadr.com/:
