Randomising Images

[Gareth]

Just a thought (and I'm certainly no developer) but could the plugin
be modified to fetch the feed, store those values in an array and then
print it randomly?

Any takers?

[Federico]

I think the problem is not in the plugin. This can't be done, because
of the limitations of the feed that flickr provides. But, perhaps some
real developer (wich I am not) could help you with this.

That's pretty much the problem. The feed is limited to the last 20
pictures. Other people have written code to randomize within those
twenty images, but it's not something that I'm going to include in the
plugin. If you're interested, it may have been posted in the forum
already, try searching it or google.

Line 140 of flickrrss.php
Change this: $items = array_slice($rss->items, 0, $settings
['num_items']);
To this: $items = array_slice($rss->items, rand(0,(count($rss->items)-
$settings['num_items'])), $settings['num_items']);
