Hello,
Does anybody can help me do modify the script to publish a photo from a specific tag instead of a specific User ?

Thanks !

Guillaume

First, thanks again for the Random Flickr script!

I have had it working on my site, but discovered that it didn’t work when I went to sub-directories. I had thought it was a URL rewrite issue, but couldn’t solve it.

I have finally had the time to look into it and found a solution.

With flickpic.php and randomFlickr.class.php in one direcotory (let’s use root for example), I simply had change one line in flickpic.php:

$http = ‘http://'. $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . dirname($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] . ‘x’) .’/’. $relpath;

I shortened to :

$http = ‘http://'. $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . ‘/’;

and it works just fine.

I know this post is old but… This is the closest thing to what I am trying to do. I could not get the original size photo to work.

I edited the randomFlickr.class.php – instead of calling the original size “xl’, I changed it to be “o” and it worked.

The problem I am having now is that it is not pulling a random image from my whole Flickr library. It seems to be pulling the same several images over and over again. I have over 2000+ images to randomly pull from, but I have seen a couple of photos up to 5 times in any test where I refresh the images.

How is the image pulled randomly? Is there a way to pull images from a specific set with this bit of code?

Thanks.

Kno,

FYI: the script works with video as well. it grabs the flickr-generated screen shot and displays it just fine. (Something I hadn’t thought about until testing pulled one of my videos up.)

Kno,

Bravo! That seems to have done the trick, thanks. And all because WP 2.7 won’t run under PHP 5 like its suppose to.

Hey Tim,

I just re-checked the file, and there are still two functions labeled “public function” and “private function” – both keywords, public & private, are not working with PHP4 as far as I’m concerned, so by removing them you should be fine. Unfortunately I don’t have a PHP4 environment to back-test, so errors like that sneak in easily.

You can also just re-download the script, I updated the online version.

Let me know if it still doesn’t work!

Kno,

I got the php5 version to work, but I need to drop down to the php4 ver. When I do I am getting “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in … line 190″. (http://tjameswhite.com/dev/test.php) Any thoughts?
