Flickr Images By Tags

By michal frackowiak

Description

Suppose you want to grab some images from Flickr based on one or more tags. Why?

• you would want to include some images related to your page subject, e.g. "Aston Martin DB9" ;-)
• you could create some custom tag that your friends would use — e.g. tlugfestival2005

In fact this is quite easy if you read the documentation of the FlickrGallery module.

Code

So let us pull images with tags "astonmartin" or "db9" and setting 12 pics per page, thumbnail size, order by date taken:

[[module FlickrGallery tags="astonmartin,db9" sort="date-taken-desc" perPage="12"]]

If you want to have only one page of results (without the "pager") use the extra attribute limitPages="1".

In action

This is the live example of the code above:

• 195466902
• 195466580
• 3853655262
• 3853659692
• 3852867417
• 3853653106
• 3853651162
• 3853662138
• 3852858787
• 3852852663

• tags ::: astonmartin,db9,
• sort ::: date-taken-desc
• perPage ::: 12

It's pretty cool. The only problem is with "scrolling" images. Clicking next button works only once. For all next presses it changes nothing - the image stays the same.
