Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

First find out your nsid by using this tag (with your email adress):

<txp:vdh_flickr_show_nsid email="testtest.de” />@

The nsid should appear where you placed that tag. If that does indeed happen, your photos must be organized in SETS. Make sure this is the case, and report back if you have any further problems.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

My bad, documentation on your website does say things have to be organised into sets…works fine although I think I will have to play about with the stylesheet to get things lookin nang.

Thanks for a great plugin, and the help of course ;-)
I’ll add a link to your plugin in my signature to spread the word

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

OK, I’ve got php 5 and SimpleXML enabled on my server, found out my nsid, but I get the “Failed to connect to flickr.com!” message output from the tag. No one else seems to have come up against this though. Any ideas where I’m going wrong?


Cheers,

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Not sure if it is the cause of your particular problem but I was getting the same message a couple of hours ago – I went to flickr.com and there was a message up explaining they were experiencing technical problems. As of this minute however my installation is connecting to flickr without a problem.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Yeah- I had the same problem last night. Just after I talked this plugin up on the TextDrive forums, Flickr tanked.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

I’ve experienced this problem about 5 hours ago. Flickr seems to go down for a few hours every now and then.

But in this moment everything is running fine on my site again.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Help the clueless newbie =(

Alright, I don’t know much about PHP or this whole Interweb thing (why am I even trying to make my own webpage…? :) Anyway, I’ve performed a clean install of TextPattern using this .htaccess file:

(I don’t know how to escape Textile so I’ve just put in leading \:/)

\> cat .htaccess
\# DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
\# Options +FollowSymLinks
\# RewriteBase /home/ahmadia/public_html
\
\<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
\ RewriteEngine On
\ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
\ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
\ RewriteRule ^(.+) – [PT,L]
\
\ RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
\</IfModule>
\

Diagnostics appear to run fine, but after installing the v8 beta plugin, creating a new section and article, I get a weird error stack referring to already-defined variables, etc… My webpage is at http://www.ahmadia.net (TextDriven), and the test page is at: http://www.ahmadia.net/aron_gallery. All help is appreciated!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

You can copy multiple lines of code into the forum by wrapping ist in < code> … < /code> (without the spaces in between).

The problem you have has never occurred to me, but please make sure you use a current version of textpatter. I think rc3 and above will do.

In newer versions of textpattern you can set a production state. Setting it to “live” might help you get rid of the problems.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Hahah, you got it!

Setting the production status from ‘debugging’ to ‘live’ fixed the problem.

+10 karma points for you, and I owe you a beer if you’ll be in Munich sometime in August.

Hrhr, thanks! What a pity I will be sailing in the north of Germany at that time…

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

I am also getting the “failed to connect to flickr.com!” error. I have no idea what’s wrong. Everything seems right.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Hi guys, do you have your code indented properly? (I would think the vdh_flickr_show_nsid wouldn’t work…) Here’s one of my successful uses:

<code> <txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails nsid= “79598448@N00” set=“700915” thumbnail_size=“m”/>
</code>

You can see it demo’d on the front of my <a href=” http://www.ahmadia.net”>Ahmadia Family website</a>. Larf is definitely the expert on these things so you may need to wait for him to come back from sailing :).

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Gah! Make sure there are two spaces before the: <code>
<txp:
</code> the < code > tag appears to eat space :(.
