I've installed AFG 3.5.0 but after filling in my Flickr user settings (ID and API Key) I can't click on the "Grant Access" button. Is this normal?

And nothing shows up on my photostream preview but this message:
"Awesome Flickr Gallery Error - error setting certificate verify locations: CAfile: /usr/local/share/curl/curl-ca-bundle.crt CApath: none"
What does that mean? What do I have to do in order to make it work?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Did you click save changes button after you entered your user-id, api key and api secret? Once you do that, the grant access button should be enabled.

Well, now I've got another error message saying "Oops! Flickr can't find a valid callback URL"...

I know you've already answered this to someone who had the same problem:

"You have to set the callback URL on https://www.flickr.com/services/apps/by/.
Then select the app you created for awesome flickr gallery and edit the callback URL to be your wp-admin page."

So I tried to do that but I'm not sure I did it right because it doesn't work better!

Go through these steps - https://www.flickr.com/services/api/auth.howto.web.html

This is how you setup a Flickr app to be used by AFG to communicate with Flickr. For one of the steps, you have to set callback URL as mentioned on that link. That URL should be the wordpress dashboard URL. For my website www.ronakg.com, it is www.ronakg.com/wp-admin/.

I have had success with connecting AFG to two websites and this 3rd one is giving me the Awesome Flickr Gallery Error - (blank)

I've followed all of the above directions carefully, and also deleted my browsing history. Please let me know if there is anything else I can try. (Using version 3.5.3 AFG)
