Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
Hi, all going well with vdh_flickr on one site, but not on a second site, where I use exactly the same setup (the default vdh_flickr forms, css and means of calling the plugin from the page source.)
To explain, I have 2 Flickr accounts. I use the same exact tag to call the images, the only exception is the email address (I don’t use the NSID because I have Flickr page use a name for the URL instead of the NSID). Of course, the email address is correct ;-)
Wondering what might be the problem?!
Edit: The tag is this – <code><txp:vdh_flickr email=“myemail@yahoo.com” set_form=“preview” thumbnails_form=“thumbnails” img_form=“image” /></code>

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
I am pretty sure that you MUST to use the nsid — email alone will not work. Since you have changed your flickr url — the vdh_flickr documentation states that you can retrieve your nsid using a little line of code. Here are the directions from the <a href=“http://www.rvdh.net/vdh_flickr/Documentation”>documentation</a>:
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>

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
Hi, yes I had read that part, but the plugin works fine with only the email part as I mentioned above. Specifically it works on one site but not on the other. Thats why I find it a bit odd. I seem to remember that a previous version of vdh_flickr allowed only email but of course I could be mistaken.
I will try the above code and see if it works….thanks!
Edit: I attempted the code below (in the page source, not a form or an article):
<code><txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“24358862@N00” set_form=“preview” thumbnails_form=“thumbnails” img_form=“image” />
<txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“24358862@N00” /></code>
Neither tag worked! A bit strange. It works fine on the other site where I have the same tag…

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
OK I fixed it. The reason nothing was showing was because I had not created a “set” yet. I had 8 photos but no set. Even with the basic tag: txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“24358862@N00” nothing happened until the new set was made.
Is this a bug? Something should show by default no?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
I know people have been confused by this, so vdh_flickr will output an error in the next version if no sets are defined.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
Hello. Today I am getting this message, “Failed to connect to flickr.com! “.
I don’t usually get that message. My flickr photos normally show up fine.
Just wondering if anyone else is having issues? I have a yahoo flickr account, and yesterday the images were showing up fine via the flickr txp tag

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
No problems for me, but I believe Flickr.com uses many servers and it’s not unusual that some of them are down occasionally

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
@sisterstephie:
You are right, the tag list seems to be broken in the version 0.8.6. This should be resolved in 0.8.7:

thanks in advance

I’m new to TXP and I’m getting the same problem.
What was the solution? I’m using TXP 4.0.3 (r1188), if that means anything (Rc? rev? what?), and PHP4.
Sorry if the answer was elsewhere in the topic, I’m pressed for time so I couldn’t read it all.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
That post you quote refers to a very old version of vdh_flickr, which did only run with php5. That was the problem.
Try to add a couple of text lines to your article, so you can make sure the article is really displayed. If that does not work, please post some more details of your configuration.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
The article appears just fine if I leave out:
< txp:vdh_flickr nsid=“30063793@N00” / >
Only when I include that in the article the entire page come back blank, not just the article.
What other config details would help?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] vdh_flickr
Please check the output of phpinfo().
For php5, you need SimpleXML compiled in, for php4 you need dom-xml. This information should be included in the output of phpinfo, too.
If you don’t meet the requirements, you can still write an email to your hoster of switch to TextDrive.
