Help with Flickr...please?

[anitaulu]

Hi. I'm hoping that someone will have PITY on me, and help me figure out a way to put the flickr badge on my website. I have read everything I am supposed to read, but still get the error message. I am by no means an expert (obviously) - could someone help me out?

I have uploaded the actual plugin itself, and put that in the "plugins" directory.

Do I put the "pear" folder in the "include" directory, or does it go into the "plugins" directory?

help!!

Hi!

You refer to a "the error message". Could you tell us that exact error message?

It seems you are referring to the serendipity_plugin_flickr plugin, right? There, you just copy the files that are mentioned in the README.txt file of the plugin into the bundled-libs directory of your s9y installation.

So that the paths are

bundled-libs/Flickr/*
bundled-libs/Cache/Lite.php
etc.

Because the plugin includes all files from the "include_path", and this contians the s9y bundled-libs directory as well. I'm sorry that this plugin is a bit hard to install because of the external dependencies.

You might want to look into the flickr.com site - they also offer HTML/JS badges that you could put onto your blog with a HTML nugget plugin?

Best regards,
Garvin

Hi, Garvin. Thanks for your quick reply. I have tried using the Badge feature, and applying it as Html nugget, and it just feeds back the code, instead of the actual badge....

Hi!

If you get the HTML code returned, you are maybe using the WYSIWYG editor? In that case you need to switch it into HTML sourcecode view (uzsually a "<>" button) before you enter your code. And make sure to set "Apply Markup Transformations" to "No" in the sidebar HTML nugget plugin.

So simple, I'm embarrassed I didn't think of it!!

Thanks again!
