No photos showing

[karameredith]

I installed this plugin yesterday, after updating to Wordpress v
2.8.4. I've done all of the troubleshooting suggestions on this site
and its still not working so I'm wondering if it has something to do
with the update. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

There shouldn't be any issues with 2.8.4. The plugin works with all of
the sites that I've updated to the latest version of WordPress. Have
you tried showing public/community photos without the cache enabled?
Are various feeds appearing on the Dashboard (incoming links,
wordpress updates, etc)... if not, there may be an issue with your
host and retrieving RSS feeds.

I'm having this same problem... nothing is showing up. I've tried
turning off the cache, and I'm still getting other RSS feeds on my
page. It should be showing up in the sidebar on the main page:
www.iankphoto.com

Any ideas? Could it be something with Flickr?

Have you had the plugin working in the past, or had it suddenly
stopped working? I'm assuming that you're either using the widget
system, or have add the php manual to your sidebar... or did your
theme come with "support" for flickrRSS? Have you tried getting it
work with just the generic flickr public photostream?

[Ian K]

The plugin worked great up until a few months ago. I'm using widgets.
The only thing that's changed since then is my upgrading WordPress.

Nothing shows up if I try "community" photos, either.

Have you tried the code replacement found in the Common Problems &
Solution page for the group? There was an error in a php library that
screws up xml/rss parsing for some people.

[Ian K]

Ok, I've just tried that. Nothing. I even tried clearing the cache for
good measure. I also tried deleting and re-installing the plugin a few
days ago.

What's weird, though, is that it's working on my other blog at the
same domain... I just installed another version of wordpress on my
site (a separate one) to have a personal journal. Probably not the
best way to do it, but I'm no code wizard... The version of FlickrRSS
that I have there (http://www.iankphoto.com/spain) is working just
fine. You'll see it in the same space on the right side.

[Ian K]

As an experiment, I tried putting a text widget on the side of my page
with the code <?php get_flickrRSS(); ?>, thinking that it would read
it as part of the page. No luck there either.

Any new ideas?

I am having the same issue. It works fine on other sites and used to
work fine on this site. But all of the sudden, get_flickrRSS(); does
not work.

Site in question...
http://www.secoop.org/
(photos should be displaying in the brown box)

[kyleroth]

Changing the code on line 144 from...

preg_match('<img src="([^"]*)" [^/]*/>', $item['description'],
$imgUrlMatches)

to

preg_match('/img src=([a-zA-Z0-9:\/._]+) /', $item['description'],
$imgUrlMatches)

worked.

Yeah, there's a weird bug that got introduced to some servers, from
the Common Problems and Solutions page:

The plugin uses the built-in WordPress system for retrieving RSS
feeds. For some users, there is some sort of server side issue that
ends up messing up the html inside the feed, and screws up the plugin
as a result (for the tech savvy, it's an issue with php and libxml:

I don't know why, but for me, there was a problem with the recaptcha
plugin.
flickrss wanted read an htaccess in the recaptcha folder, and it make
a fatal error.
So i disabled this plug, and it work.
