Advanced

The plugin also supports a number of parameters, allowing you to have multiple instances across your site.

$num_items - how many photos you want to appear. (max. 25)
$rss_url - Feed URL (see above)
$imagesize - small, medium or large
$before_image - html appearing before each photo (eg: <li class="jpg-img">)
$after_image - html appearing after each photo (eg: </li>)

Example 1

		<?php
		$getArgs = array('num_items'=>6,
					   'rss_url'=>'http://jpgmag.com/photos/rss',
					   'image_size'=>'small',
					   'before_image'=>'<li class="jpg-thumb">',
					   'after_image'=>'</li>');
		
		get_jpgrss($getArgs); 
		?>

Copy code

This would show 6 small photos recently added to JPGMag.com wrapped in list tags with the class "jpg-thumb". If any of the above parameters (ie: $imagesize) are omitted, the plugin will default to the configuration value(s) set via the Admin Options page.

Example 2

		<?php
		$getArgs = array('num_items'=>6,
					   'rss_url'=>'http://jpgmag.com/photos/submitted/rss',
					   'image_size'=>'medium',
					   'before_image'=>'<li class="jpg-medium">',
					   'after_image'=>'</li>');
		
		get_jpgrss($getArgs); 
		?>

Copy code

This would show 6 medium sized images, wrapped in list tags with the class "jpg-medium", submitted for publication consideration.
