If you're talking about one a day or thereabouts, there's really no need to be fetching any more frequently than perhaps once every 12 hours, or if you're really bothered, 1 to 6 hours.
Uhm, I know but doing so I have to wait 12 hours to see the image on the website after I took it. Right..? I'd like to have max 10/15 min delay... do you think it's not possible?

I can't tell you whether using your account vs tags would be better. Which better describes what you want to show?
I asked that because I have 2 sites where I'm using this snippet. The first retrieves the images of my user_id stream only, the other retrieves photos with a certain tag (so it has to scan every photo to ensure they have or not my tag, I presume). So I was wondering if the user-stream only snippet is less intrusive for the server because it has to scan a stream only.

So you're fetching tags from Instagram... how often are items posted from Instagram that fit your tags?
Uhm.. not really 5 or 10 minutes..it's a unused tag (#bombacarta) and it's used only by our "organization".. I presume that there will be a new image every.. day? or every 2 days..?

What's a good timing..?

And what if I was extracting photos only from MY recent photos (only photos by the user_id xxx) instead of tags (i.e. there are no other images to "discard", every photo in the provided stream has to be shown)? Would this be better? :)

Do you think that 500 seconds (8 minutes) is a time too short and will impact on the server..?
I don't think it is.. also because the file cached is smaller than 10kb..

Is there a sense to have 60*60 instead of simply 3600? :o

Second solution worked. :)

To change the "caching time" to ~16 min instead of 1 hour I need to change this:
Code: [Select]
if(file_exists($cache) && filemtime($cache) > time() - 60*60)

to:
Code: [Select]
if(file_exists($cache) && filemtime($cache) > time() - 100*10)

..? 100*10 are seconds, right?

Ok, another problem.. :P
Instagram created_time timestamp is GMT (I presume.. :P).. I need to get the italian timezone..

So I changed this:
Code: [Select]
'.htmlentities(strftime('%e %B %Y alle %R', $value->caption->created_time)).'

to:
Code: [Select]
'.htmlentities(gmstrftime('%e %B %Y alle %R',time()+3600,$value->caption->created_time)).'

But I get:
Warning: gmstrftime() expects at most 2 parameters, 3 given

This code works, is it also correct? :)
'.htmlentities($value->caption->text, ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8").'

Reasonable. :)

I "applied" htmlentities to my decoded data: '.htmlentities($value->caption->text).'
The downside is that accents are broken, example:  ì becomes Ã~

Page char-set is UTF-8. I thought it would have handled accented chars properly...!

Clear. :)

And about..:

would it be faster (and better) to use file_get_contents or wp_remote_get (a WP function that uses the HTTP GET method..)?

Oh! Clear now. :)
Am I wrong or the line $date = $tweets['created_at']; is useless (because then I decode the date directly from the JSON)..? It confused me a bit... I thought I needed to change that too but then I realized I don't need that... Right?

I'm doing it wrong.. right? :P

Uhm.. dates are still in english..
Code: [Select]
<?php
 setlocale(LC_TIME, 'it_IT');
 $json = wp_remote_get("http://twitter.com/status/user_timeline/lorenzoraffio.json?count=6", true);
 $decode = json_decode($json['body'], true);
 echo "
<ul style='color:#6E6E6E'>";
 $count = count($decode); //counting the number of status
 $date = $tweets['created_at']; // created date
 for($i=0;$i<$count;$i++){ echo '
<li>'.$decode[$i]['text'].'<br><a href='; echo '"http://twitter.com/#!/'.$decode[0][user][name].'/status/'.$decode[$i][id].'"><small>'. date('j F',strtotime($decode[$i]['created_at'])) ."</small></a> - <a href='http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?in_reply_to=".$decode[$i][id]."'><small>rispondi</small></a> - <a href='http://twitter.com/intent/retweet?tweet_id=".$decode[$i][id]."'><small>retweet</small></a> - <a href='http://twitter.com/intent/favorite?tweet_id=".$decode[$i][id]."'><small>preferito</small></a></li>";} echo "
</ul>
";
 ?>

And another question.. would it be faster (and better) to use file_get_contents or wp_remote_get (a WP function that uses the HTTP GET method..)? :)

How come I never heard about Amstamgram before they got gobbled up by Facebook? :P
Eh eh! I knew it already.. anyway this acquisition made it of course more and more famous. ;)

Okay.. now that I managed to get it working I.. have another question. :P
I'm using this code to create a list of tweets from my Twitter account:
Code: [Select]
<?php
 $json = wp_remote_get("http://twitter.com/status/user_timeline/lorenzoraffio.json?count=6", true);
 $decode = json_decode($json['body'], true);
 echo "
<ul style='color:#6E6E6E'>";
 $count = count($decode); //counting the number of status
 $date = $tweets['created_at']; // created date
 for($i=0;$i<$count;$i++){ echo '
<li>'.$decode[$i]['text'].'<br><a href='; echo '"http://twitter.com/#!/'.$decode[0][user][name].'/status/'.$decode[$i][id].'"><small>'. date('j F',strtotime($decode[$i]['created_at'])) ."</small></a> - <a href='http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?in_reply_to=".$decode[$i][id]."'><small>rispondi</small></a> - <a href='http://twitter.com/intent/retweet?tweet_id=".$decode[$i][id]."'><small>retweet</small></a> - <a href='http://twitter.com/intent/favorite?tweet_id=".$decode[$i][id]."'><small>preferito</small></a></li>";} echo "
</ul>
";
 ?>

Everything works perfectly except that the dates are in english. I need to set italian language for the strtotime function.. I know I need to use setlocale(LC_TIME, 'it_IT'); but I don't know where to add it..
