Yep - I’m getting the same result - is it because I haven’t upgraded my WP yet? I’m going to try that - it’s about time I upgrade anyways

Ah I see now that is a flickr thing, maybe there is a different way to get the tags so that you can go one better than flickr itself?

Everything goes fine through the install, except that after activated, I see a FAlbum page, but when I click, I get this message :

Not Found
The requested URL /wp-admin/falbum-plugin.php was not found on this server.

FAlbum is in the content/plugin folder, not in the wp-admin folder — I don’t get it !

Thanks for your help,
philippe

Any was to get non-sanitized tags. The all lowercase, spaces removed tags look kind of silly. Otherwise I haven’t encountered any issues, havent tested it much yet. (Other than if an image is too big for the main coloumn, but thats another thing.)

Thanks for the plugin, good work! However, some parts of the options page use the short form of PHP code tags instead of which isn’t allowed on all servers (including mine). Also the german translation is written using UTF-8 encodings instead of ISO-8859-1. Not all servers support this (including my website).

I’ve created a patch to fix those issues. It’s available at http://publicvoidblog.de/wp-content/plugins/falbum.patch You’re welcome to use it. Kind regards,

Christian

p.s.: The german translation isn’t very good. I’ll improve it, let me know if you’re interested to use it.

Great plugin, keep up the good work.
I did find that when updating my friendly url’s my .htaccess file was getting trashed causing a 500 Server Error. I found that when FAlbum wrote to the file it was removing the #End WordPress marker and so next time I updated a page WordPress got all mashed. Don’t know if that might help some people with 500’s or if it is something to keep an eye on.

[...] I have been using the flickr album plugin by Ramon Darrow for my photo album but after some rooting around this afternoon I decided to switch over to FAlbum. With a bit of help from Andreas Linde’s great walkthrough it was up and running in no time. This version looks to have nice admin plugin page which made linking to flickr easy as pie, plus it displays all recent photo’s even if they are not collated in sets. After a few hourse tweaking and setting it all out I went back to modify some other pages and suddenly was faced with a 500 Server Error! What had just fallen apart? I then spent a few hours getting to the root of the problem and found removing the .htaccess file for the root and removing permalinks solved it. Right turn permalinks back on; works. Turn friendly url’s on photo plugin on; works. Modify a page and save; 500 Server Error! It turns out that the FAlbum plugin writes to the .htaccess file but in doing so erases the last #End WordPress marker so when you change a page and WordPress updates the .htaccess file it chokes on the FAlbum section. I manually added the WordPress end marker above the FAlbum being marker and so far it looks to be working ok. Technorati Tags: album flickr photo wordpress // Used for showing and hiding user information in the comment form function ShowUtils() { document.getElementById(”authorinfo”).style.display = “”; document.getElementById(”showinfo”).style.display = “none”; document.getElementById(”hideinfo”).style.display = “”; } function HideUtils() { document.getElementById(”authorinfo”).style.display = “none”; document.getElementById(”showinfo”).style.display = “”; document.getElementById(”hideinfo”).style.display = “none”; } [...]

FAlbum

It was fairly easy when I installed this, then today ambitiously tried the friendly url option. Oh my God it has broken down. The major problem is that I couldn’t go back. I guess I have to try deactivating and reinstalling again.
