Question

🙂
This is the code I’m using right now to pull my entries from Instagram:

        <?php
        setlocale(LC_TIME, 'it_IT');
        function get_instagram($tag=bombacarta,$count=10,$width=612,$height=612){
            $url = 'https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/'.$tag.'/media/recent/?access_token=13137.f59def8.1a759775695548999504c219ce7b2ecf&count='.$count;
            // Also Perhaps you should cache the results as the instagram API is slow
            $cache = './wp-content/themes/raymond-31/instagram_json/'.sha1($url).'.json';
            if(file_exists($cache) && filemtime($cache) > time() - 500){
                // If a cache file exists, and it is newer than 1 hour, use it
                $jsonData = json_decode(file_get_contents($cache));
            } else {
                $jsonData = json_decode((file_get_contents($url)));
                file_put_contents($cache,json_encode($jsonData));
            }
            $result = '<div style="border-top:1px solid #ddd">'.PHP_EOL;
            foreach ($jsonData->data as $key=>$value) {
                $location = (!empty($value->location->name))?'presso '.$value->location->name:null;
                $result .= "\t".'<em>'.htmlentities($value->caption->text, ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8").'</em><br /><img src="'.$value->images->standard_resolution->url.'" alt="'.htmlentities($value->caption->text, ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8").'" width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'" /><br /><div class="postinfo">Scattata da '.$value->caption->from->full_name.' il '.htmlentities(gmstrftime('%e %B %Y alle %R', $value->caption->created_time + 7200)).' '.htmlentities($location).'</div><br />'.PHP_EOL;
            }
            $result .= '</div>'.PHP_EOL;
            return $result;
        }
        echo get_instagram();
        ?>

I’d love to have that after 5 entries I can show the others as thumbnails. So I’d like to have 5 enties in standard_resolution and the other.. 10..? 20..? (dunno) as a clickable thumbnail.

Of course I can copy/paste the code again replacing standard_resolution with thumbnail_resolution but how can I specify that I’d like to start from (say) entry 5 instead that entry 0 (to avoid to repeat the same 5 images again before the other ones)? 🙂

Try this:

  function get_instagram($tag=bombacarta,$count=10,$width=612,$height=612){
            $url = 'https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/'.$tag.'/media/recent/?access_token=13137.f59def8.1a759775695548999504c219ce7b2ecf&count='.$count;
            // Also Perhaps you should cache the results as the instagram API is slow
            $cache = './wp-content/themes/raymond-31/instagram_json/'.sha1($url).'.json';
            if(file_exists($cache) && filemtime($cache) > time() - 500){
                // If a cache file exists, and it is newer than 1 hour, use it
                $jsonData = json_decode(file_get_contents($cache));
            } else {
                $jsonData = json_decode((file_get_contents($url)));
                file_put_contents($cache,json_encode($jsonData));
            }
            $result = '<div style="border-top:1px solid #ddd">'.PHP_EOL;
            $ic=0;
            foreach ($jsonData->data as $key=>$value) {
                $location = (!empty($value->location->name))?'presso '.$value->location->name:null;
if($ic>=5){$res_c=thumbnail_resolution; $x_data="TESTT";}else{$res_c=standard_resolution;$x_data='Scattata da '.$value->caption->from->full_name.' il '.htmlentities(gmstrftime('%e %B %Y alle %R', $value->caption->created_time + 7200)).' '.htmlentities($location);}
$ic++;
                $result .= "\t".'<em>'.htmlentities($value->caption->text, ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8").'</em><br /><img src="'.$value->images->$res_c->url.'" alt="'.htmlentities($value->caption->text, ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8").'" width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'" /><br /><div class="postinfo">'.$x_data.'</div><br />'.PHP_EOL;
            }
            $result .= '</div>'.PHP_EOL;
            return $result;
        }
