Well, a little over a month ago I had put the final touches to the WP Flickr Background plugin and entered it into Alpha stage. Over the entire month and with a few thousand visitors, there were only two issues reported (one of which was unrelated).
Satisfied with this, I’ve now made version 1.0.2 available as a Beta product. That means you can now use it for your own purposes, however I do not recommend using this in a production environment just yet (although nothing is stopping you from doing so – use at your own risk!). View Full Article »
WP Flickr Background is a simple to use WordPress plugin that allows you to display a photo from Flickr as the theme background, without the need to modify any files.
All you need to do is create one or more galleries within the plugin’s settings, each containing a collection of photos from Flickr that you have chosen, and WP Flickr will randomly select a photo from the active gallery to display as the theme background.
You can also customise a gallery by adding CSS styling code that will be loaded along with the photo, allowing you to color match the WordPress theme to the particular photo displayed or for other use. View Full Article »
