flickr tag plugin
When I started using WordPress for webopticon.com, I had a hard time finding a Flickr plugin that didn’t download all the photos onto my server, have them appear in a separate gallery, or otherwise look totally kitsch. I just wanted something simple. I wanted thumbnails to show, and I wanted to be able to put them “inline” in my posts. Keep the photos and discussion on Flickr, as far as I’m concerned. I couldn’t find anybody to share my design goals.
My solution was to write my own plugin. You can download here:
UPDATE: Please use the page on wordpress.org to download all new versions!
Example of the plugin “in action” (with my settings, anyway–yours can vary):
Note: This plugin requires that your PHP installation include either libcurl or URL fopen wrappers to work properly. Many of the problems reported below are caused by not meeting this requirement.
