I have installed the flickr plugin and used API key and secret code provided by flickr.

Error occured: Cannot find Flickr/API.php
have downloaded it from
http://code.iamcal.com/php/flickr/readme.htm

and uploaded the Flickr/API.php to "plugins/serendipity_plugin_flickr" folder on my server.

The following error occured which I have no clue:

Warning: require_once(XML/Tree.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream

thanks in advance

Hi!

Please put those files + directories into the "bundled-libs" directory of serendipity - does that change anything?

The XML/Tree error happens, because you must also put the PEAR:HTML_Tree into bundled-libs , which is required by the Flickr API plugin. I believe the files are inside that plugin as well?

HTH,
Garvin

Actually, the files are missing from the plugin. But the README tells you where to get them: http://code.iamcal.com/php/flickr/readme.htm. The first package includes a Flickr API, an XML/Tree, and a few other things you'll be needing.

Now I am getting this error message:

syntax error, unexpected T_CLONE, expecting T_STRING in /blog/bundled-libs/XML/Tree.php on line 297

I searched in your blog and found this entry useful but am unable to proceed forward:

I took out the personally-identifying information. I'd like the post to stick around for the benefit of others, if you don't mind.

Glad you found it, too! I was going to tear my hair out if clone() was an unacceptable function name.

Maybe we should include the PEAR modules required along with the plugin. Garvin, is that a licensing issue or something?

Hi!

Yes, it's a licensing issue; the phpflickr api cannot be bundled so easily. Plus it updates often, and I'd like to avoid maintaining it. The same applies to bundling XML/Tree, this seems to still change very often...

Best regards,
Garvin
