My Flickr sidebar widget vanished with the upgrade to 3.7.1. Any clues/keys or solutions for Flickr. I use a Picasa widget on one sidebar and HAD a Flicr widget on the other. I want both again. Help!

Hard to tell what happened. You may want to look in your inactive widgets to see if the Flickr widget is there or if not there just put it back in the sidebar.

The Flickr widget no longer exists on the widget menu. The Shashin widgets are there. The Picasa widget is there and I use it. But I want to link to my Flickr account AND my Picasa albums. But there is NO Flickr widget. With the upgrade it vanished. Seriously. Any suggestions?

Does the plugin still exist?
Is it active?

.....Juggledad....I think that is what I am asking. The Flickr widget ONCE existed. It was once a plugin/widget I added to my ATO and used until I upgraded. My upgrade was a HUGE jump in versions. And now.....there is no more Flickr widget on my widget menu (like were the cloud widget and tag and shashin widget, etc) all reside. It vanished. And I cannot find ANYWHERE I can download this Flickr widget. I have no recall as to where I found it in the first place. And so I am asking......anyone....everyone....does such a creature exist for the latest version of Atahualpa? Does anyone else use a Flickr widget and WHERE did they find it and how to I get it ADDED to my widget menu.

The theme update does not touch plugins. It can't delete a plugin from the plugin section of wordpress.

Now if you had defined a new widget area, it's possible the widget area is gone because of the wordpress requirement that no theme use the php function eval(). However you should be able to add it back in in index.php

What version did you upgrade from? You could manually reinstall that version (see the Update FAQ) and have both versions installed so you could swap back and forth.
