Display photos using tags

using tags

A last option to make a selection of photos to display on your website is the use of tags..The 'tag' expression attribute is the only expression attribute of the plugin that requires double quotes to be recognized by the plugin. Double quotes are required to allow the use of multiple tags in one expression.Multiple tags can be used and have to be seperated by a comma.

Example: Display photos that have the tags "squirrel"and "california", limited to 14 photos

Just like with sets and user- and group streams, we can display one photo on the webpage and have it linked to a selection of photos from a (user/group)stream. It works in a similar way, by putting the photo attribute with value "display" in the expression.

Example: Display 14 photos that have the tags "squirrel"and "california", and display 1 photo on the website.

Notice that the plugin automatically selects the first image of the user- or group stream to display on the website.

Search scope

The plugin uses the complete collection of public photos on flickr as default search scope. To change or reduce your search scope you have several options:

• user=me
• user=<userid>
• group=<groupid>

Below are some examples of espressions using the tag attribute combined with one of the 3 options mentioned above:

Example: Display 14 photos from the flickr account linked to the plugin that have a tag "squirrel"

Example: Display 14 photos from flickr account with id 85575418@N00 and that have a tag "paris"

Example: Display 14 photos from flickr group with id 25131588@N00 and that have a tag "paris"
