And YES, I do consider feature requests, and that is what makes this plugin work. The discussions are here: [Quick Flickr Widget](http://kovshenin.com/wordpress/plugins/quick-flickr-widget/ "Quick Flickr Widget") == Installation == 1. Upload archive contents to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress 1. Check out your sidebar widgets configuration == Frequently Asked Questions == = I entered my username but the Flickr images aren't showing up! = Okay. Let's start off by saying that it's not your Flickr username that I need. And it's not your Yahoo ID! It's your Flickr screen name (in the [Your Account](http://www.flickr.com/account/ "Your Account") section). Next. Make sure that safe_mode is turned off on your hosting account, cause as far as I know, that disables cross-domain usage, and the only way out is to use javascript or frames, which is rediculous. Now, if that didn't help, then feel free to bug me on this page: [Quick Flickr Widget](http://kovshenin.com/wordpress/plugins/quick-flickr-widget/ "Quick Flickr Widget") ;) Cheers! == Screenshots == 1. This is the widget configuration options. As you can see it's HTML is fully customizable! 2. This is the output from my Flickr RSS feed in middle size. 3. Here's a screenshot of how it looks with the standard wordpress theme and small-sized flickr photos. == Change log == = 1.2.2 = 26.03.2009. Now supporthing both Flickr screen name and RSS feed in the widget configuration. Please note, that if you are using a Flickr RSS feed, then it SHOULD start with `http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds`. = 1.2.1 = 24.03.2009. Took me a while to figure out the difference between username and screenname in the Flickr API. There was a bug in 1.2 when using screen names with spaces. Here's a fixed version. Special thanks to Tung Nguyen Thanh ;) = 1.2 = 23.03.2009. Considered some feature requests. Okay, so I don't use RSS anymore, cause that sucks. Flickr has got an open API, so I use the REST interface to send requests and retrieve data in JSON format. It's much easier this way - no more useless regular expressions. In this version I don't even require you to go get your RSS feed link, all you need is a Flickr username and you're done. I make a Flickr API call to convert your username into an ID during widget configuration, then the requests from the widget are made by another API call using that ID. Does not require a Flickr API key. = 1.1 = 13.03.2009. Yeah I know _blank targets totally suck and that it's very unkind of opening a new browser window (or tab) without users' permission, but anyways, somebody requested this so here you go. = 1.0 = 6.03.2009. We got hosted at WordPress.org! Wohooo! Minor changes to the php file and restructured the readme.txt (and I actually renamed it to readme.txt, duh!) = 1.0b = 2.03.2009. This is the start, so good luck to me and you all too. You may browse the source by the way, it's not too complicated yet.
