eeFlickr : Flickr photo gallery

Added a new Tag for creating a “tag cloud” or tag list

{exp:eeflickr:tagcloud}

you can get it here

yeah this post was actually split from a much older post about flickr and put in the plug-in section by the admins.

and the reason i did this as a module is because i plan on adding flickr user auth to this so there can be a back end management of flickr’s permissions to EE user groups. still early yet.

Added a new tag {exp:eeflickr:tags}

{exp:eeflickr:tags photo_id="1677038702" ignore="cat|dog|frog" cache="yes" refresh="720"}
    {id}
    {author}
    {authorname}
    {url_tag}
    {raw}
    {tag}
    {machine_tag}
{/exp:eeflickr:tags}

Has anyone else had any problems with this plugin with recent ee updates?

I’m running 1.6 build 20070815 on my personal site, and have a little test page for EEFlickr that works fine.

On a site I’m building for somebody else, I had a newer build and anytime I try to use tags from the EEFlickr module, the entire page loads blank, as if there was a php error somewhere. I tried updating to EE 1.6.1, and the problem still exists.

Now, they are on two different servers. I could attempt an upgrade to my personal site and see if that has the same problem. I just wanted to see if you’d experienced anything like that.

fitzage I will upgrade to 1.6.1 tonight and find out whats up.

I upgraded to 1.6.1 on my other server, and EEFlickr still works just fine. It appears that there is something wrong with the other server configuration. Not sure if it’s a PHP problem or what. I’ll have the techs look at it later, but I don’t think the problem is with the plugin.

The situation is that I have 3 Premier Shared accounts from Joyent, and one virtual dedicated Accelerator. It works fine on the Accelerator, but not on the shared servers. Do you know if the EEFlickr module requires a lot of RAM or anything like that?

As it turns out, I just had to enable some additional php modules that were not enabled on the shared system, but were on the dedicated system. Works now.

Using the quick example for {exp:eeflickr:photos} on your site, I’m getting the following errors:

Notice: unserialize(): Argument is not an string in /www/pmh4674/public_html/nrt/modules/eeflickr/mod.eeflickr.php on line 1060

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /www/pmh4674/public_html/nrt/modules/eeflickr/mod.eeflickr.php on line 1069

Notice: Undefined variable: shrimp in /www/pmh4674/public_html/nrt/modules/eeflickr/mod.eeflickr.php on line 1082

I’m using EE 1.5.2, PHP Version 4.3.9, hosted on Engine hosting.

Any ideas???

Debra i got the same errors the other day and after a quick check it was because Flickr was returning a server error page and not the typical API response “ok or fail”.

try clearing your cache directory on the server. if this does not solve your issue send me a email. with the tag you are using.

I will have server error checking for any flickr downtimes in the next version.

New Version 0.6

and i apologize in advance for changing around allot of the tags. it was a Necessary Evil. anyway the big updates in this version:

*You now use your own API key. set in the CP *you can authenticate your Flickr account to Flickr to show Private, friends and/or family only photos *error checking if Flickr is down etc. use cached REST data if down. *refresh= now also sets the cache timeout for API calls cache, not just the tag output cache *allot of code cleanup.

and happy turkey day.

I am assuming that in order to upload this module, I put it in the “modules” folder via FTP, correct? Do I upload the whole “eeflickr Folder”?

When I tried to do this, the Module tab of the CP gave me this error:

Error Unable to load the following language file: /lang.eeflickr Folder.php

Thank you for helping me with the basics! I am very excited to get this flickr module up and running, it is just what I have been looking for as I am very unhappy with the EE Photo Gallery Module.

the eeflickr folder goes in the modules folder the language file lang.eeflickr.php goes in the language/english folder
