[Plugin: Flickr Gallery] Just Recent images

  • After trying several other flickr plugins, I finally found Flickr Gallery. I don’t see why all the others have to be so complex, this is simple and exactly what I was looking for… almost:

    I just want a page that shows my most recent flickr photos, but the [flickr-gallery] shortcode put photo sets and most “interesting” as well. I just added an option to that tag: [flickr-gallery mode=”recent”]

    Here is the code to make it work:

    case 'recent' :
	if ( !empty($attr['user_id']) ) {
		?>
			<div id="photostream">
				<?php $photos = $phpFlickr->people_getPublicPhotos($attr['user_id'], null, $attr['per_page']); ?>
				<div class="flickr-photos">
					<?php foreach ( $photos['photo'] as $photo ) : ?>
						<div class="flickr-thumb">
							<a href="<?php echo $url . $photo['id'] ?>"><img title="<?php echo str_replace("\"", "\\\"", $photo['title']) ?>" alt="<?php echo str_replace("\"", "\\\"", $photo['title']) ?>" title="<?php echo str_replace("\"", "\\\"", $photo['title']) ?>" src="<?php echo $phpFlickr->buildPhotoURL($photo, 'square') ?>" /></a>
						</div>
					<?php endforeach; ?>
				</div>
				<div class="clear"></div>
			</div>
		<?php
	}
	break;

    It goes in flickr-gallery.php at line 226 in the current version… something like that might be good to include in future versions.

    Edit: You can see the result at https://jk3.us/photos/

    Update: I figured out that you *can* get just a list of your most recent photos with method=”search”… you just search for yourself:

    [flickr-gallery mode="search" user_id="NSID"]

    On flickr’s api page for the search method, they say you can use user_id=”me” to get your own photos, but that doesn’t seem to work in this case. You can get your NSID at https://www.flickr.com/services/api/explore/ (in case you’ve set your url to use your username instead)

    Also, perhaps all of the gallery methods should accept a “size” argument in case you don’t really want the squares.

    I’ve got a patch for that, but can’t figure out how to get it on this forum… let me know if you’re interested.
