Before you ask

Please don’t just say that it doesn’t work, okay? That doesn’t help at all. I need to know which version of the plugin you’re using, and don’t just say latest, because I update very often – I need a number. I’d also like to know which version of WordPress you’re using and the output in the widget (there should probably be some error message). And if you’re a genius you can also tell me what version of php and apache you’re using and whether safe_mode is switched on or off on your server. Thanks.

    Hello,

    I just installed this widget, and I love it! However, I’d like to link the h2 to my photostream. Is this possible? I tried mucking about in the quick_flickr_widget.php code, but didn’t see the h2, and wasn’t quite savvy enough to figure it out.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the plugin! I moved the extract a bit lower so I could call the widget directly from Page Templates like this:

    $flickr_options = array(‘tags’ => $name, ‘items’ => 9);
    widget_quickflickr($flickr_options);

    This lets me override the defaults.
