I don’t know what’s up, but zooomr is returning error pages instead of the favourites and sets pages, and my plugin’s broken as a result. There’s nothing really that I can do at the moment. Follow progress in this discussion thread on Zooomr.
Yesterday I tagged version 0.4 of my slideshow plugin (and 0.93 of the underlying inlinerss plugin), and upgraded this site to use it.
The surprise new feature that I managed to knock together over the weekend is a full-screen mode. It was easy at first, taking a couple of hours on Saturday, but then I looked at it in Internet Explorer and it was a mess. The sooner IE6 is dead, the better. 7 is a huge improvement.
These aren’t the official wedding photos, just mine, don’t worry. I finally got round to uploading them this week, and now here’s the slideshow, after much faffing around.
If you’ve not used it before, click the thumbnails along the bottom, or use the play button and navigation buttons. To see a bigger version of the main picture, click it to go to the detailed Zooomr page for that photo.
With the advent of Zooomr Mark III, all slideshows with photos from Zooomr are broken. I’m not trying to apportion any blame, but I can’t do anything about this until the following things happen over at Zooomr:
As soon as I notice these getting fixed, I’ll fix my XSLT files, and we’ll be back to normal.
Update 2007/07/14: the RSS feeds from people’s photos pages seem to be working, using rssfeed.xsl.
Update 2007/21/14: zooomr sets are back, and zooomrset.xsl is fixed in the trunk.
Update 2007/22/14: zooomr favourites are back, and my slideshow’s fixed. New post coming soon with details.
If you’re here for the slideshow plugin, please bear in mind that all Zooomr feeds and pages are currently down due to the upgrade to Mark III. I expect a few glitches once the site returns too.
I’ve just tagged version 0.31 over at dev.wp-plugins.org, and upgraded this site to use it. If it looks weird (if you’ve visited this site before) hit <ctrl>+R to refresh the css rules.
This Wordpress installation uses the latest stable versions of my slideshow plugin. To see what’s around the corner, visit the Testing Grounds. Be warned though: you might be disappointed as it could well be broken.
More info on these soon, but here’s the photos for now.
I’m starting to put all my old photos up on Zooomr, now that I’ve got the slideshow in a reasonable state, and can get at Zooomr photo sets. So, we begin back in 2003 with the first half of a long holiday in Australia, visiting family.
Just for completeness, here are demonstrations of Flickr favourites, and Zooomr SmartSet as slideshows. The xsl for the Flickr one will be added to the distribution shortly.
