D’oh! That did it, thanks. This is a great plug-in, and thanks for being so responsive.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

You don’t need the plugin for this purpose. It’s as easy as this:

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Hi everyone,

great plugin! Thanks a lot, Larf!

Everthing is working fine in my setup. BUT: I cannot display any private pics. For two days I had been thinking I was doing something wrong (being new to both Flickr and Txp).
But now I figure that it is not working because the recently created Yahoo-Flickr accounts use that new authentication method described here:
http://planet.gentoo.org/developers/obz/2005/09/17/flickr_api_changes
and here
http://www.flickr.com/services/api/auth.spec.html

Whenever I try this
<code>
<txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“12345678@N00” email=“foo@bar.com” password=“xxxx” />
</code>
I will just get a blank page.

Am I right? Is it Yahoo’s fault :-) Is there a way to get the plugin to work with private pics anyways?
I think displaying private pics is one of the most interesting things about this plugin, because you don’t want all your pics to be browsable by all in the Flickr community …

Thanks for any suggestion!
Frank

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

You are right about this, only “old” flickr users are able to use the email method for authentication. I will pick up development very soon in order to rewrite major parts of the plugin, which will include the authentication.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Thanks Frank and Larf,

I couldn’t figure out why I’d never been able to display private pics… good to know that it is something that can be fixed in the future!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

I absolutely love this plugin, but have one question/request.

Is there any support for indicating whether a thumbnail or image is in portrait or landscape orientation? For example, adding a class attribute on the image or link with either portrait or landscape? This would add a lot of very nice style possibilities, since you can then account for differences in vertical size.

If there isn’t support for this today, is it something you’d consider adding? If this isn’t possible, any ideas for a workaround to account for the difference?

Thanks for your help or consideration,

Dan

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

This depends on how you want to use this feature. I’ve just checked the flickr api, and it seems that this information is only available for individual images, so you would have to make an api call for every image you want to display. An api call takes about 0.5 seconds to excecute, so this not a possible feature for the thumbnail page, but it is possible to do this for individual images. Maybe I will implement this in the next version.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Hey, I love this plugin! I don’t know if I have the latest version or not, but I was noticing that when the tags were shown for an image, the links weren’t being formed properly. When I looked at the code I saw that in the img_tags() function some of the variables were mistyped. I changed two lines in that function:

<pre> function img_tags($separator) { $html = tag($this->raw_tags0,‘a’,’ href=”’ . $this->makeRequest(array(‘tags’ => $this->tags0)) . ‘”’).”\n”; . . . $html .= tag($this->raw_tags[$i],‘a’,’ href=”’ . $this->makeRequest(array(‘tags’ => $this->tags[$i])) . ‘”’).”\n”; . . . }
</pre>
to
<pre> function img_tags($separator) { $html = tag($this->raw_tags0,‘a’,’ href=”’ . $this->makeRequest(array(‘tags’ => $this->raw_tags0)) . ‘”’).”\n”; . . . $html .= tag($this->raw_tags[$i],‘a’,’ href=”’ . $this->makeRequest(array(‘tags’ => $this->raw_tags[$i])) . ‘”’).”\n”; . . . }
</pre>
