Today I received a note via Twitter about little bug in the Mobypicture plugin. It appears that the option ‘Use linked images’ is only working when the option ‘Use cropped image’ is selected as well. I hope to be able to fix this soon. Thanks for letting me know Coen.
Please do not hesitate to report bugs or submit your feature requests either via a comment or Twitter (@Chillez73).
I just uploaded a new version of the Mobypicture plugin to the WordPress Plugin Directory. Version 1.2.1 now allows the usage of an optional PHP string that only retrieves the ‘raw’ images from Mobypicture.com and let the image formatting being set by your theme stylesheet style.css
Note that I decided to change the image class name in the final version 1.2.1 so those of you who installed v1.2.1 beta and upgrade to 1.2.1 will have to make a small change to their style.css
v1.2.1 beta used class ‘img.mobypic’ while v1.2.1 uses class ‘img.mobypicture_raw’. This is more logical as now the PHP string and image class have the same name. (BTW this also counts for the images displayed by the widget and non-raw code, these images have a class=”mobypicture”.) See also plugin installation notes.
One of the comments received on the Mobypicture plugin is that it ignores the image style settings included the WP theme style.css that is being used. I have extended the plugin with an additional function that only retrieves the images from Mobypicture.com and does not include any formatting. You will have to include img.mobypic with the desired settings in your style.css
1. As always download the plugin and put contents in your wp-content/plugins folder and activate the plugin.
2. Open the theme style.css and include the class img.mobypic in the image handling section (if you have one 
). I used these settings for my test:
img.mobypic img.mobypicture_raw{
padding: 2px;
margin: 0 2px 3px 0;
border: 1px solid #2772B3;
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
}
3. Next, open the file sidebar.php in your favorite editor and include the following code at the desired location. Don’t forget to change the username. Of course you can change the other settings to your liking as well:
<h2>Mobypicture_raw Test</h2><ul>
<?php mobypicture_raw($public = false, $group = false, $username = chillez73, $num = 9, $square = true, $linked = true); ?>
</ul>
That’s it!
Download version 1.2.1 beta here. Public release v1.2.1 now available here.
This site is lacking a decent logo but I have not yet found enough inspiration for a logo. A few minutes toying around resulted in this doodle. Nah, guess this will not be the one
I just uploaded a new version of the Mobypicture plugin to the WordPress Plugin Directory. Major enhancements in v1.2 are:
Note: v1.2 is not compatible with v1.2 beta code, please replace with new code (see plugin installation notes)
Rewriting the plugin including support for multiple widget instances appeared to be more difficult than anticipated. Therefore I decided to release this version prior version 2.0
Next step will be figuring out to use the API instead of the RSS feed and, of course, add support for multiple widget instances.
