Forgot the Category 0.3

Dan Coulter — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 08:59:32 +0000

I have just updated Forgot the Category so that it works better with WordPress 3.x.

Head on over to the WordPress page if you don’t already have it installed.

Flickr Gallery 1.4.0

Dan Coulter — Sun, 04 Jul 2010 06:43:22 +0000

I’ve just tagged a release for Flickr Gallery 1.4.0. In addition to several bug fixes for WordPress 3.0, it brings an oft-requested feature. There is now an option (off by default) to load larger than medium photos in the lightbox. I have turned it off by default because it requires an extra call to the API which slows down the lightbox slightly. The lightbox checks with Flickr to find all of the available sizes and then shows the largest one that will fit on the user’s screen.

Flickr Gallery 1.3

Dan Coulter — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 02:06:04 +0000

The newest version of Flickr Gallery adds two important things that people have asked for. They wanted to show collections and they wanted to be able to choose which tabs to show. To enable the collections tab, just go into your Flickr Gallery settings page and select it from the list of tabs. For now, it’s a very simple piece of functionality. Clicking on the collection name or icon will take your visitors to the Flickr page for the collection. I haven’t made this very complex for now, because there is no telling how deep a collection would go, and my UI options are fairly limited when working on a WordPress page or post.

Caching in Flickr Gallery (1.2.9 release)

Dan Coulter — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 23:02:59 +0000

I’ve just released a new version of Flickr Gallery that fixes an issue that stopped caching from working. Just update to version 1.2.9 to get it working.

Plugin Update Notification 0.1.3

Dan Coulter — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 20:48:47 +0000

I’ve just pushed out version 0.1.3 of Plugin Update Notification. I realized that the plugin did not work with a change that had been made in WordPress 2.8. This new version should work just fine.

Flickr Gallery 1.2

Dan Coulter — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 06:31:09 +0000

Flickr Gallery 1.2 is now available from the WordPress download page (or through your blog’s plugin installer). Pagination is now supported for all galleries to let your users browse through your photos without having to leave your blog.

New features in version 1.2:

All images you insert in your posts that are smaller than “medium” sized will open in the lightbox (if you have it enabled). From there, the user can decide to continue to Flickr’s site if they so choose. This includes the “square”, “thumbnail” and “small” sizes.
All photo galleries should now have pagination enabled. If you have caching enabled, the pagination will load as much photo data as possible from the Flickr API and step through those results to save the end user’s time. If you don’t have caching, it will load the photos you need as soon as the user requests them.

Plugin Update Notification 0.1

Dan Coulter — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 16:24:58 +0000

I am pleased to announce that I finally got around to releasing this particular plugin. It will notify (and even nag) you about updating plugins in your WordPress install. Every day, you’ll get a single email if (and only if) there are plugins that need to be updated. For me, this is going to be very handy for other blogs that I administer but don’t visit the control panel every day (like my mom’s blog).

Flickr Gallery 1.1

Dan Coulter — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 06:05:08 +0000

With this new release of Flickr Gallery, the Lightbox functionality should work a little better. It should be loading properly for every built-in gallery mode, including custom searches. The process for adding an authentication token has been improved as well. The biggest new feature is a newly Ajaxified settings panel. Saving the settings through Ajax allows full WordPress MU support.

New features in version 1.1:

Lightbox set up for all Flickr galleries without interfering with each other.
WordPress MU support.

Update 1.1.2: Fixed some small bugs that were stopping people from using the plugin at all. Most people will see no change.

Flickr Gallery 1.0

Dan Coulter — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 07:24:26 +0000

I’ve just created the release for Flickr Gallery 1.0. The version number has been increased to a new major release because I’ve added some pretty important new features. You will hopefully be seeing it in your WordPress admin panels by the time you read this. Be sure to test it out and send me any problems you see with it. You can leave a comment on this post, or send me an email through the contact form on this site.

New features:

New lightbox script custom made for this plugin. Why do we need another lightbox, you ask? This one allows you to show your Flickr photos (and videos) in a lightbox, but still be compliant with the Flickr API Terms of Service by providing a link back to the photo page.
Using the WordPress plugin API, you can now alter the tabs in the default gallery to show just about anything you want. You can find more about that on the plugin’s page on this site (under “projects”).
Photos in sets are now show in a panel that appears below the set data. There is a link back to Flickr, of course.

Update version 1.0.1

Pointed “powered by” link to the CodeMeme project page
Fixed XHTML errors
Set the llightbox to turn on by default (this won’t affect you if you’ve manually turned it off)
