Starting today, Dreamhost is disallowing the use of php’s allow_url_fopen. It broke the image caching for my flickrRSS plugin and also broke an include I was using on my code page. I did a quick rewrite of the plugin to use curl instead of fopen, but I’m going to hold off posting it. I’m going to redo some chunks of the plugin and release it all in one go. If you really need the updated plugin, let me now and I can hook you up, otherwise, just turn off image caching for now.
