Feedback and Support

Visit the flickrRSS forum for help getting the plugin working and styling the photos. I'll do my best to respond, but sometimes I'm slow.

Advanced

The plugin also supports a number of parameters, allowing you to have multiple instances across your site.

1. 'type' => 'user' - The type of Flickr images that you want to show. Possible values: 'user', 'favorite', 'set', 'group', 'public'
2. 'tags' => '' - Optional: Can be used with type = 'user' or 'public', comma separated
3. 'set' => '' - Optional: To be used with type = 'set'
4. 'id' => '' - Optional: Your Group or User ID. To be used with type = 'user' or 'group'
5. 'do_cache' => false - Enable the image cache
6. 'cache_sizes' => array('square') - What are the image sizes we want to cache locally? Possible values: 'square', 'thumbnail', 'small', 'medium' or 'large'
7. 'cache_path' => '' - Where the images are saved (server path)
8. 'cache_uri' => '' - The URI associated to the cache path (web address)
9. 'num_items' => 4 - The number of images that you want to display
10. 'before_list' => '' - The HTML to print before the list of images
11. 'html' => '<a href="%flickr_page%" title="%title%"><img src="%image_square%" alt="%title%"></a&>' - the code to print out for each image. Meta tags available: %flickrpage%, %title%, %imagesmall%, %imagesquare%, %imagethumbnail%, %imagemedium%, %imagelarge%
12. 'default_title' => "Untitled Flickr photo" - the default title
13. 'after_list' => '' - the HTML to print after the list of images

Example 1

<?php get_flickrRSS(array('num_items' => 10, 'type' => 'public', 'tags' => 'london,people')); ?>

This would show the 10 most recent community photos tagged with london and people. It won't show photos with only one of the tags.

Example 2

<?php get_flickrRSS(array('set' => '72157601681097311', 'num_items' => 20, 'type' => 'set', 'id' => '44124462494@N01')); ?>

This would show the 20 most recent thumbnail sized photos from the specified user's set.
