Hello,
I’ve successfully installed your code on my “Contacts Page” but I would like to show one of Flickr “Sets” instead of just my global photo feed. Is this possible?

Please get back to me at your earliest convenience.
Much appreciated!

I’m building a multi authors blog and I need to use this beautiful piece of code in wordpress author’s page (author.php) getting user name from a custom field from admin.

I’m struggling to get this working. All I get so far is the account name printed and nothing else:

“$var = the_author_meta( ‘flickr’ );

$user = $phpFlickrObj->people_findByUsername($var);
$user_url = $phpFlickrObj->urls_getUserPhotos($user['id']);
$photos = $phpFlickrObj->people_getPublicPhotos($user['id'], NULL, NULL, 4);”

Can you give a direction?

Thanks!

hey nice blog, i just want to ask,
i added the code, and wordks fine, but if i am using different usernames then i am getting errors
for eg,
if i change the username to “vlerick” it gives me this error
“Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in \page.php on line 11″

same thing when i tried on your demo, it gives me the same error
the flickr url of this is : http://www.flickr.com/people/vlerick/

whats the problem?

@rathin:
If you mean the id that Flickr has generated for you (NSID) do the following: remove the “$user = $phpFlickrObj->people_findByUsername($username);” line and then hard-code your id in the following two lines in the place of “$user['id']“.

If you mean your e-mail, then instead of “$user = $phpFlickrObj->people_findByUsername($username);” use “$user = $phpFlickrObj->people_findByEmail($email);”.

I hope that helps. You can find all the available Flickr’s API functions here: http://www.flickr.com/services/api/

Hello Samuel,

Can you explain in more detail your question? I cannot understand what you want me to explain

Thank you I got your code and it worked fine.
But can you explain how you display the next set of results from a search maybe?
Thanks

Hello Dave,

You can get the photo’s description using the following code (place it into the foreach loop of the example):

$info = $f->photos_getInfo($photo[id]);
echo $info['description'];

I hope that helps.
