Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

@andreas:
This has bothered me, too, since I created that damn demo page within two hours or so. OK, I promise to do a complete redesign as soon as the weather turns bad.

And concerning the documentation: I guess something like this should be better…

I don’t think it has to be a redesign. A couple of CSS rules will do the job.

And concerning the documentation: I guess something like this should be better…

Definitely. Something short and accessible at the start for the newcomers and the details below to dig into when you actually try to implement the plugin.

Lovely padding. And a very good vintage, too! It flatters my eyes!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

OK, I’ve updated both the plugin and the documentation. The new version has many bugs fixed, can show very customisable lists of your tags and has a handy random feature. And it’s all in the docs this time.

Download

Furthermore, while I updated the docs, I made a list of features, which I found quite impressive. In order to show off, I’ve put this list on the first page of this thread.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

I get an error with the random attribute…
My tag looks like this:
<code><txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails nsid=“12345678@N00” random=“3” /></code>

…and the error I get is this:

Fatal error: Call to a member function isValid() on a non-object in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\millstone\textpattern\lib\txplib_misc.php(429) : eval()’d code on line 550

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

You have to specify where to take the random pictures from, like a tag, a set number or latest pics.

Example here:

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

The “tags” part looks great. Unfortunately, I am getting an error that I got before- “Failed to connect to Flickr.com”

What’s wrong?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr

EDIT: I just released 0.8.2.

Your problem most probably occurs because of php4 not being able to get the flickr xml file. In 0.8.1 I implemented only one method of getting the xml file (domxml_open_file) which does not seem to work on every host.
In 0.8.2 I’ve implemented three methods of receiving the xml file (curl, file_get_contents and domxml_open_file), and vdh_flickr automagically checks which one is available.

php5 still only uses simplexml_load_file. Anyone having problems with vdh_flickr and php?

So please try the new version and report back if it works for you. It could help me improve the plugin.

Greetings
Ralph

I did and… HEEEELP !

This message appeared on the top of every pages as soon as I updated to 0.8.2 (on a standard 4.0.1 r888 txp)
I had do disable the plugin (and the galeries, then) to get rid of it.

Some informations :

The site is in Live mode

Excepting this huge load of PHP warnings, the galery seems to work normally when the plugin is turned on…

and…

PHP version: 5.0.3
Register globals: 1
Magic quotes: 1/0
MySQL: 4.0.21-standard
Locale: en_GB.UTF-8
Server: Apache/1.3.33 (Unix)
