[Xerte-dev] Re: Did something change to break the misc > flickr page at some point?

Will have to check with Tom. 
I don't tend to point people to github because for many it's a step too far
and I'm sure Tom had another good reason to point people to the community
site too but obviously fixes rather than new developments should find their
way in to the stable downloads too.

Cheers
Ron

The same thing may have happened with the randomize answers code that was
referred to in a previous query.

The person asking about it implied that a recent download didn't have it but
he got the correct code from github...

It looks like the changes you made to fix that haven't found there way into
the 2.1 download from xerte.org.uk

e.g. last update to those downloads show as 2014-09-02 not sure if that's
2nd Sept or 9th Feb?

But your changes to fix the Flickr api issue show as 8th May 2014

The fix is in the unstable download but obviously that's not recommended for
production use.

Lost track now of where and what we should point people to for downloading a
stable version?

Hi all
just discovered that the flickr page in an LO I'm working on didn't load any
images so I tested a few other installations to which I have access and got
the same result e.g. no results returned

If I view the page types demo from the Nottingham install
http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_8203?&page=45 that still works but
I've now tested this on too many servers (including one of Tom & Inge's
installs) for it to be a server specific issue so I'm wondering if it's due
to a code change somewhere at some point? Or perhaps it's a change at the
Flickr end but only affecting later revisions?
