[plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

larf · 2005-05-31 19:54:18

Now there is version 0.8beta6 online, which has Freigeist’s bug (and some others) removed.

There is one litttle new feature, that is show the latest photos. Use like this:
<code>
<txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails nsid=“43973976@N00” latest=“4” show_slideshow_link=“0” />
</code>

latest=4 means show the latest 4 pics. The Slideshow link does not work yet, so I switched it off in the example. This can be seen live on my page as Demo2.

Hello everybody,

I can’t make this plugin work… I’ve just installed 0.8beta6 version and tried the plug’n play mode. I’m running TXP 1.0rc3 and PHP 4.3.11. Could you help me? This is my blog and this is where the flickr picks should appear

Thanks

Ok larf – I installed the update, and now instead of giving a goofball ‘page could not be loaded’ error, clicking on the link to an individual photo (for instance this one) redirects you to the set page.

update: actually, this might be the way firefox handles the same goofball error, because clicking on that link from the textpattern form doesn’t do anything, same as clicking on it from the set page does at my site.

txarly: Did <code><txp:vdh_flickr_show_nsid email="testtest.de” /></code> work for you?

@misterk:
I’ve got vdh_flickr 0.8beta6 installed flawlessly on my barcley test account using a plain txp rc3 installation from the zip file provided on textpattern.com.

See http://vdhflickr.textdriven.com.

So as we are using the same server, same txp version and same vdh_flickr version, something else must be wrong. Maybe you can mail me all the plugins you use, so I can install them, too, and see if anything collidates with some special plugin enabled.

Maybe you could test the same thing again with all other plugins disabled.

I’ve just released stable version 0.7.2 which should remove problems that occurred on hosts with the php option enable_globals = on.

0.8beta versions already have this fix since some time.

Hi larf,

I tried to use the tag with the mail, but it didn’t work… and I also disabled all the plugins I use, but I still get that blank page. Should I use any special form for the flickr section? Maybe the problem is the template I’m using right now (txp rin)

HELPFUL TIP: THE EASIEST WAY TO DETERMINE YOUR FLICKR NSID

In your http://www.rvdh.net/vdh_flickr/Documentation/?c=Plug+n+Play+Mode documentation, it is stated:

“Create a new article with only the following text in it:
< txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“12345678@N00” />
Of course you have to replace the nsid value by your own data from flickr.com”

I had a really hard time trying to determine my Flickr nsid, but here is the EASIEST WAY:

To get your NSID from Flickr, go to your photos page, view source, find global_nsid, and note the value. That’s it

Updating the documentation would probably help a lot of frustrated people!

Cheers on a great job!

…and the documentation says this:
“If you have difficulties finding out your nsid, you can use this code to determine it:
<code><txp:vdh_flickr_show_nsid email=“test@test.de” /></code>”

This tag will print your nsid on your webpage. Then you can copy and paste it into <code><txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“12345678@N00” /></code>

Just wanted to say a huge huge thank you to the author of this plugin – it is absolutely brilliant! Your time and effort is very much appreciated.

I look forward to it evolving futher, especially the accessing of private photos.

Many Thanks
Martin

Quick question. I am trying to create something relatively similar to the “demo 3” whereby I have a page of thumbnails for a set with a text list of all sets in the sidebar of my site so the user can quickly jump to another set without having to go back to the list of sets.

So I have the following…

*** in main part of page ***

txp:vdh_flickr set_form=“photo_set_preview” thumbnails_form=“photo_thumbnails” img_form=“photo_image” set_preview_size=‘s’ thumbnail_size=‘s’ img_size=‘n’

*** in sidebar of page ***

txp:vdh_flickr set_form=“photo_set_list” thumbnails_form=“photo_thumbnails” img_form=“photo_image” set_preview_size=‘s’ thumbnail_size=‘s’ img_size=‘n’ /

The problem is that the output in the sidebar is a duplicate of that in the main part of the page – i.e. it does not use the specified different set_form.

Any ideas on a solution?

PS I am running the latest version of vdh_flickr on RC3.

Best Regards
Martin

If I get you right, the main part of your gallery works fine, and the problem is the sidebar which should always show a set list.

That’s easy. Simply put this into your sidebar:
<txp:vdh_flickr_set_list nsid="12345678N00” />@

You can even use wraptag and break to make a correct list. I know this should be in the documentation somewhere, but I’m just too busy. I will pick up work on this by mid-August, as you can see on the vdh_flickr page.

If I got you wrong, simply ask again. I didn’t sleep much in the last days, plus my main form of nutrition is coffee.

Perfect, thanks. Best of luck with the exams.

I chose this plugin because I didn’t wanna hack my textpattern and it seems great (plus I like Flickr too!)
I am having a slight problem getting my images to generate.
I checked my server using phpinfo() and this is what I have…

PHP Version 4.3.11 (Guessin this is ok)
domxml
DOM/XML enabled
DOM/XML API Version 20020815
libxml Version 20609
HTML Support enabled
XPath Support enabled
XPointer Support enabled

I should be ok right? I think I have done something dumb along the way…I have tried things out here… www.carltondickson.co.uk/dev/photos/
In my article page I used…

<txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“28237420@N00” />

and used no title for the article, any ideas where I have gone wrong?

bhutz · 2005-07-14 15:43:17

Would it make any difference if I have just set up my account because my photos won’t appear to the public until my account has been approved apparently
