Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Wow ! This plugin is fantastic ! I haven’t tested everything yet but it’s fantastic anyway…

I needed (for an association) a gallery customisable, powerful but simple, well integrated in a txp site, with lots of photos but little bandwidth and diskspace on server… Here it is ! flickr does the job, vdh_flickr brings it to txp in an elegant way. Thank you larf !

There are strings I did not find how to translate… but maybe it is possible only with form mode (not tested)
Show as slideshow in new window”, “Comments”, “Show and post comments” “Posted”, “Taken

Edit: OK, I’ve found the strings in the plugin code… but I think I will use form mode anyway (it is safer… to anticipate upgrades)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Is it possible to use the next or previous image to navigate back and forward like on flickr?

Thanks, Lee

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Yes. See near the bottom of the plugin help :

> Hint: You can use these tags to show a thumbnail of the previous or next image:
  • <txp:vdh_flickr_img_previous_thumbnail />
  • <txp:vdh_flickr_img_next_thumbnail />

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Hello!

I just released this plugin as 0.8 stable. I did not receive any complaints any more, so I guess it’s about time. The only change since beta8 are these two tags:

Showing thumb <txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails_pages_startthumb /> to <txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails_pages_endthumb />.

(When using it with pagination.).

See here

Plus I changed the default thumbnail size to ‘s”, that’s 75×75px.

Have fun!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Thank you Larf, if you appreciate some feedback here is a gallery I made for an organisation

For a next release, could it be possible to have a tag that just returns the image ID in the image page ?
So we could built personnal links to flickr… someting like <txp:vdh_flickr_image_id />

For example, I’d like to have, under the image (near next-image, previous image…) a link to fullsize image directly from flickr (not in textpattern layout)… this could be done easily with such a tag.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Thanks for the feedback, that’s a really nice gallery.

Concerning <txp:vdh_flickr_image_id />: That should easily be possible for the next version.

But your fullsize image link is possible already:
1. Add this to your vdh_flickr tag:
link=“original_size” (or link=“flickr”, which will show the image on flickr with an option to show all sizes)

2. Add this to your image form:
<txp:vdh_flickr_img_link> Show full size image. </txp:vdh_flickr_img_link>

Have fun!
Ralph

P.S.: I’ll be on a one-week vacation from tomorrow on. So possibly I won’t be online during that time.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

Is there a way to show only the latest x number of images added to flickr? Or even better to show specific single images?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

latest pics:
<txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails nsid="43973976N00” latest=“7” />@

single pic:
<txp:vdh_flickr_img nsid="43973976N00” img=“50843062” />@

Does anyone read documentation ?

Or is it not well-understandable? Maybe I should work it over in order create a clear structure that helps people to find the information they need. The documentation has grown a bit over the last months…

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

larf, I think you could restructure the documentation a little. At the first encounter, it looks daunting and a bit confusing.

Perhaps some table of contents at the top could help.

And one small thing: you should give the text some padding left and right. It touches the borders of the box — I’m sorry, but this has bothered me since the first time I visited the site ;-)

I am soooooooo sorry :o( In a rush I skipped through the documentation and obviously missed what I was looking for. Thanks for the pointer. Sorry! :)
