Search Parameters

Hi,

In this case you simply should edit the “/wp-content/plugins/photoshow/modules/06_Google/google.clss.php” file, specifically the line of code:

$response = wp_remote_get( “https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?q=”.urlencode( $terms ).”&cx=”.urlencode($cx).”&start=”.$from.”&key=”.$api_key, array(‘timeout’ => 120) );

To include the new parameters.

Best regards.

Hi I am trying to use the basic features but I am confused how to do this. I read the example in the settings area of the plugin:

dogs site:facebook.com

And for searching “Dogs” pictures in Picasa, use the searching term:

dogs site:picasaweb.google.com

Coding is not my expertise. I was expecting a shortcode or something. I went to the demo site and did a search for “site:” in the code but it wasn’t used in any of the pages.

If I want to insert a picture of a dog from sitexwz.com (for this example lets say it does not require an api) What code should I paste on my page as an example?

Thanks!!

Hi,

If you want to insert an specific picture from a website, and you know its URL, you simply should insert an img tag in the page’s content, for example, if the URL to the image is:

https://www.sitexwz.com/images/dog.jpg

The tag to insert would be:

<img src="https://www.sitexwz.com/images/dog.jpg" />

About your first question. Our plugin does not insert a shortcode, it inserts the code of the gallery directly into the page’s content. The use of term “site:” in the search criteria, when the Google API is enabled, indicates to Google that you want search in a determined website, however, if you have included the website when the search context was defined in Google, you simply should enter the terms for searching without the “site:” part.

Best regards.
