Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

I agree with Merz here too.

It would be much appreciated if you could share your technique here, with the class – and we’ll try our best to understand…

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Or a new thread in How Do I…? & Other Questions … a basic how-to … download this, install that, use this form, … for me the AJAX part is the tricky thing because I never did AJAX programming.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Okay guys, i’m whipping up a tutorial. It’ll be using Mootools but a JQurey port will be very easy.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Dazonic,
The Shadowbox implementation looks great. I’ve already been using Shadowbox for a while now and love it. Will be looking forward to your instructions on how to get it running with vhd_flickr.

Everyone and anyone,

I’m having a problem with vdh_flickr, and I’m hoping you might be able to help me. Here’s the gallery, and here’s an individual image.

It’s the individual image navigation where I’m having problems. The Next/Previous Image links don’t work. Whenever I use them, I get an error message “Failed to connect to flickr.com!” (usually using Previous) or I get random images posted from other users (usually when using Next).

Total weirdness, and might end up a deal-breaker for this plugin if I can’t get it sorted out. I hope someone can help me.

Thanks,
theturninggate

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

How does one paginate the thumbnails? I have forms setup, but enabling pagination is not in the documentation.

Thanks,
Matt

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Would it be possible to show a list of tags that are associated with the images in a SET? This would be good for use when showing a list of sets — (for example: tags could be displayed within the form for a set preview, along with the set title, set description, and set thumbnail). It would also be nice to use the tags like a menu (similar to the tags feature already included in the plugin), however, when a tag is clicked – it will return only the user’s Sets that contain one or more images with that particular tag. Note: this is not the same as showing only images that are associated with particular tag.

Does that make sense? I think it would be a versatile feature – if possible.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

I can’t seem to figure out how to “skip a step” as it mentions is possible in the documentation. What I’d like to do is skip the middle step, so you go straight from the set preview (normally the first step) to the main image display (normally the third step.

Is this possible?

When I attempt to leave out this step using custom forms, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function img_title() on a non-object in /home/content/j/e/a/jeaninembehr/html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(534) : eval()’d code on line 1199

Thanks

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Hi there! I’m a new user of both TextPattern and vdh_flickr. I do a bit of PHP programming on the side, but this framework is a lot to learn at once. :-)

I’d like to learn how to use vdh_flickr to create the little group of random/most recent flickr photos you often see in blogs. Something like here:
http://www.hicksdesign.co.uk/journal/

or here:
http://superfluousbanter.org/

or here:
http://veerle.duoh.com/

Hopefully you get the idea.

I’ve read through the instructions and played with a few things, but I think I’m fundamentally misunderstanding something about how all of the pieces fit together. can someone give me some starter code as an example?

Thanks!

- Chris

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Try something like this:

<txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails_list nsid=“your-nsid-here” latest=“20” random=“4” open=“flickr” />

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

another issue: plugin working fine off development localhost site … but getting the error msg (‘can’t connect to Flickr’) when live on Joyent server … PHP5 with simpleXML on Joyent, so that should be fine, right?

using vdh_flickr 0.8.12 from the Google Code site

You have to edit your php configuration file in Webmin to:

allow_url_fopen = On
