[plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

photonomad · 2005-10-18 18:55:29

Oh, I have a another question / possible request:

Is is possible to display the set description on the same page with the thumbnails? I’d like to be able to put the set description in a side column next to the thumbnails… that way the extra step of clicking from the preview page can be eliminated in some instances.

I tried placing <code><txp:vdh_flickr_set_description /></code> in my thumbnails form and got this error when I tried to view a thumbnails page:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/photonom/public_html/snapnashville/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(429) : eval()’d code on line 973

Is there a way for me to go into the code and make it so that the thumbnails page will recognize <code><txp:vdh_flickr_set_description /></code> as a valid function/object to call?

Thanks again,
Stacey

<txp:vdh_flickr_set_description /> is for use in a set form only. Nevermind, I’m ready with the new version, only some testing left for tomorrow. It will include all proposals made in this forum, including a new tag for showing the description on the thumbnails page. And if possible I’d like to solve hannes.muc’s bug, so expect a release tomorrow or Thursday.

Larf, you are so cool! : )

OK, version 0.8.4 is online now.

at Stacey:
Here is how to do the trick:

Create a new section, e.g. gallery. Then create the following articles in the new section:
Article 1 with title “Ralph”:
<code> <txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“43973976@N00” mode=“none” except=“1131393” clean_urls=“1” thumbs_per_page=“18” use_articleurl=“1” />
</code>

Article 2 with title “Anna”:
<code> <txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“47796441@N00” mode=“none” except=“259288” clean_urls=“1” thumbs_per_page=“18” use_articleurl=“1” />
</code>

And this is what happens: When you go to the section (e.g. http://www.rvdh.net/photonomad), both articles are shown. But if you use the attribute use_articleurl="1", the article-url is used in all the links created by vdh_flickr. This means that only one article is selected.
Demonstration: http://www.rvdh.net/photonomad
(I may delete this page soon. This page has a section/title url scheme.)

at Ted (who asked his question on page 5 of this thread)
Your problem is now solvable, too. Create a new section with articles like this:

Article 1:
<code> <txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails nsid=“27547644@N00” set=“563234” clean_urls=“1” use_articleurl=“1” />
</code>

Article 2:
<code> <txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails nsid=“27547644@N00” set=“1072016” clean_urls=“1” use_articleurl=“1” />
</code>

Works as described above, and tested here:
http://www.rvdh.net/ted
(I may delete this page soon.)

at hannes.muc
I changed something in 0.8.4 that could be related to your bug. I suggest you just try it out.

at all the others:

Thanks for bug reporting, and I hope that no further bugs slipped in.

I made the update : no bug.
(I haven’t tested the new possibilities yet)

Thanks

Larf -

Thanks so much! The new version works perfectly! dang you’re fast!

Question:
On an image page, is there a way to display a link back the thumbnails page without using: <code><txp:vdh_flickr_img_set_title /></code> I want to be able to wrap my own text in the link like…. MENU or INDEX or THUMBS instead of the set name.

maybe I missed it, but couldn’t find an answer to this in the documentation

And…

<strike>what is the new description tag?</strike>
I figured it out: <code><txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails_description /></code>

are there any other new tags as a result of the upgrade that aren’t mentioned in the documentation?

thanks again.

Now as you mention it – no, there is no possibility. And (shame on me!) my naming of tags is inconsequent in this case. <txp:vdh_flickr_img_set_title /> should only output the title, and not a link, and there should be another tag for linking the text. Ok, I’ll remember this for the next version.

Won’t work either… :-/

Like I said before, the error message does not help me to locate the error. I can only offer to examine a txp installation on your host, or give you instructions how to locate the error via icq, because it’s usually a trial and error process. Just drop me a mail or pm it you are interested.

vinterstille · 2005-10-25 14:06:56

In the documentation it states that the plugin requires: “PHP 4.3.X with DOM-XML enabled.” how do i check if DOM-XML is enabled? Looking through my phpinfo() I cant find any mention of DOM-XML… Am I looking in the right place?

photonomad · 2005-10-25 18:02:32

You should have a file called phpinfo.php on your server. Try going to http://yourdomainurl/phpinfo.php
About 1/3 of the way down the page you should see a table called domxml

hope that helps.

sorry if this is redundant… but I looked around for a while before I found it too.

the other option is just to install the plugin and see if it works!

Now that printing is enable in Flickr, is there a way to integrate that into the plugin?

I don’t live in the US, so printing is not available for me. Furthermore the api does not offer any functions for printing yet. But if you want you can discuss what you would expect of printing support in the plugin. As soon as the flickr api is ready for this, I would be happy to integrate it into the plugin.

photonomad · 2005-10-31 02:59:28

This is the method I have employed to ‘feature’ an image on my homepage…

…. the only problem is that my vdh_flickr galleries are set up to be viewed in a section called “work” and use a page other than the default page. I would love it if there was a way to either “turn off” the link from this featured thumbnail OR change the link to display this image’s set in a specified section (other than the default homepage). Bottom line… it would be a neat add-on to build in a way to feature one image (by a specified tag) on the homepage… and even have a way to work in the image’s description. —- this image would be a teaser link to either that particular image’s set (thumbnail list) or to the preview page (list of sets) where the other vdh_flickr galleries are located.

Just wanted to see if this might be an option in a future release of vdh_flickr.

Thanks again Larf. This is a great plugin.
