Hi,

I think this is server configuration problem, the ‘allow_url_fopen’ setting is set to false, you can check this with:
echo ini_get(‘allow_url_fopen’);
This wil return 0 or 1 (probably 0 on your server).
(you can also find the setting on de php_info page)

Turn this on by adding:
allow_url_fopen = On
to your PHP.ini file.
(contact you host if you don’t know what this means)

I’m trying to find a way to circumvent the use of ‘file_get_contents’ the function that requires this setting en therefore causes this error.

Keep me posted if it works!

Cheers,
PJ

Hi,
It’s not that simple I’m afraid…
Flickr doesn’t always store large images (it depends on the format of the original image, if it’s too small it won’t create a large image and the original will be the largest) so the flickr API has no function to request the large image url.
You can generate the url yourself from the medium url:
What you can do is this:
in flickrflow.php replace on line 91:
$medium_url = $photo['url_m'];
by
$medium_url = str_replace(‘.jpg’, ‘_b.jpg’, $photo['url_m']);

This will generate the url for the large image but if there is no large image it will display an ugly flickr message. The best way is to check for a large version and display the original or medium size if there is no large version. I will try to implement this in a next version of the plugin!

Cheers,
PJ

Thanks!!
As I´looking for BIGGER Pictures, it´s ‘url_l’, right?

Hi,
Good idea, I will add this as a feature in the next version of the plugin!
Until then you can change it manually if you open the main flickrflow.php file and replace ‘url_m’ by ‘url_s’ for the small size or ‘url_sq’ for the square thumbnail. ‘url_m’ occurs only once in the file, so find & replace is your friend!

Cheers,
PJ

Hi, great plugin, very simple to use…
My Question: Can I change the output Size of the Images?
As far as I understand, the plugin fetches the “medium”-size Pictures from flickr… can this be changed somewhere in the files?
Thanks, Jörg
