I tried to find a WordPress Plugin for ImageKind that was robust enough for my needs. I only found one plugin out there and it was having some issues with my particular site. I spent a few days learning how to do this, and have managed to create a plugin that:
- Does NOT use the Magpie RSS parser that ships with WP
- Allows you to choose which ImageKind RSS feed you are going to use
- Allows you to choose whether or not to use a SASID (see below)
- Allows you to choose number of columns and thumbnail size
- Allows you to choose whether or not to display image titles and descriptions
This is version .01 of this plugin. You can download it here. If you use it and like it, consider sending something from my Wishlist.
Installation:
- Download the zip file.
- Extract, using folder names, into your wp-content/plugins/ folder.
- Activate in your WP Control Panel.
- Apply Default Settings in the WP Control Panel (settings section).
