FAQ

I updated a caption on my Phanfare album, but WP-Phanfare is still showing the old caption.

WP-Phanfare uses SimplePie (https://simplepie.org/) to retrieve feeds.
The default duration is 3600 seconds, or 60 minutes.
Adjust the Cache duration in the Admin Settings, WP-Phanfare panel

• Upgraded plugin for new WordPress Plugin support model.

1.2.18

• Wow, embarrassing, I am still learning the proper use of svn

1.2.17

• Undo, last change, fixup order in readme.txt, trying to get new version to showup on wordpress plugin site

1.2.16

• PanelClass.php was not in the release, fixed.

1.2.14

1.2.13

1.2.12

• Bug Fix release: fixed problem with no fprintf() function in php4. replaced with fwrite()

1.2.11

1.2.10

• Another oops! (Teaches me to do updates just before dinner!) Didn’t handle older thumbsize option values properly

1.2.9

• Ooops! forgot to include the new OptionsClass.php file!

1.2.8

• Properly fixed problem with creation of cache directory. Now relative to wordpress installation, should more gracefully handle not being able to create or write to the directory.
• Removed imagename caption, in Lightbox display (now shows untitled)
• Created a new thumbnail size L (179×119), the choices are Tiny, Small, Large
• Cleaned up the original code to NOT create multiple wp-phanfare options in wordpress DB. Instead create a single multi-value option record. This makes the code cleaner, removes database clutter, allows for easier expansion in the future.

1.2.7

• Fixed a problem reporting cache directory creation errors (on the actual display page)
• Noticed that the RSS feed was being sorted (by date of each entry “image”). Removed any sorting, so images will appear in “album” order.
• The Phanfare RSS feed seems to use the image filename “IMG_1234.jpg” when there is no other caption. This clutters the display, so for now, when captions are desired, the plugin only displays non-image-filename captions. (Meaning: If the caption matches “IMG_n+.jpg” or just ends with “.jpg” it is assumed to be a filename, and not displayed as a caption).
• Thanks to Jeff for letting me know about these problems
• I plan to roll out a version (in the future) with an updated Settings panel to allow more control of cache location, sorting of RSS feeds, and display of Image filenames in captions.

• Fixed reported bug with wp-phanfare_cleanup line 268 (Thank you Jeff.)
