AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Flickr-stream is a highly rated WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 2 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (4.5★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction
- +Published by dustinscarberry — established developer track record
Cons
- −Limited review base (2) — ratings can shift significantly with new feedback

How Flickr-stream works
This plugin allows you to embed your own or others photosets and galleries directly into your WordPress site. This plugin was designed to create a cleaner and simpler interface, both in administration and the frontend of the site.
The only task that has to be completed to use this plugin is to get a API key from Flickr. Afterwards it is as simple as plugging in options to generate the widget or to create shortcodes that can be placed on any page or post within your wordpress site.
To create a shortcode first click ‘Create Shortcode’ and enter the various options for the photoset or gallery. Make sure to use the right ‘ID’ format (see FAQ’s) based on whether you are adding a photoset or gallery. Click ‘Save New Shortcode’ and then copy and paste the shortcode into where you want it to appear within your site. For the widget the instructions are the same except for the copy and pasting part, of course.
Features Include:
Hide or show title of photoset or gallery
Choose between small or medium thumbnails for shortcode embeds
Cache photo data to prevent Flickr API calls each time a page is generated
Random or from the top photo thumbnail selection
Link photos to either Flickr or a lightbox (Magnific Popup plugin included, if needed)
Choose to hide photo captions or not
Set photoset / gallery alignment to either left, right, or center
Set color of photo highlights
