Resizable Recent Flickr Photos Widget
One of my main interests is photograph and my blog itself used to be so much of a photography blog. Even though my blog is currently not so dedicated to photography, I still want some flexible way to display my photos -posted on flickr- on this blog. I have developed a (generic) widget to display my photos already but it can only display photos in one size (75px by 75px). Now I wanted a widget that can display flickr photos in any size I like, for instance 100px by 50px. I’ve been looking around on the web for that kinda widget but it seemed that there was none.
Thus, I have created a new Wordpress widget by myself and now it’s done and ready for use. You can see the demo of this widget, which is titled “Recent Flickr Photos”, in this blog’s sidebar. With this widget, you can set the width and the height of the display photos individually. Download Resizeable Recent Flickr Photos Widget (90) and give it try. The installation instruction is included in the download file. Feel free to leave a comment regarding this widget.

Got the following on attempting to activate this plugin:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONST, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /wp-content/plugins/pk-flickr-recent-photos/flickrAPI.php on line 14
Sorry if it’s something simple.

I just downloaded this copy and tried on my wordpress, It worked just fine. What version of Wordpress? Did you download it from from here or from wordpress.org? Can you download it again and try another time? Let me know if there’s still a problem.
John Says:
I’m using WP2.5. Downloaded again from your site, uploaded fresh, and attempted to activate. Got the same error message as before.
phalkunz Says:
I think you’re running PHP version below 5, am I right?
John Says:
Well, crap! I sure am. I’ll have to complain to my hosting service.
phalkunz Says:
Sorry about that. You should ask them to upgrade to PHP 5 because it has been out ages already.
Feel free to drop me a line if you have further problem with the plugin.
