Widget Connector Macro no longer working with Flickr URLs

Issue Summary

In current versions of Confluence, users are unable to add Flickr URL links utilizing the Widget Connector Macro, which we specifically mentioned should work with Flickr. When users add the Flickr URL with the macro, it does not render the content and instead displays a gear icon on the page.

Environment

• Confluence Cloud

Steps to Reproduce

1. Edit any page and add the Widget Connector Macro
2. In the Web Site's Widget URL parameter, paste the URL provided by Flickr for sharing an image.

Expected Results

When adding the Flickr URL through the macro, it should display the image on the page.

Actual Results

When users add the Flickr URL with the macro, it does not render the content and instead displays a gear icon on the page:

Workaround

The current workaround would be to get the Embed HTML code for an image provided by Flickr and embed it to a page using the HTML Macro for Confluence Cloud.
