Read functionsHere are docs for all the read functions. It's soooo easy to read the informations from a tumblelog uning phpTumblr that I think a doc is useless... But here it is! Creating the objectSo, at first, you have to create the readTumblr object. That simple: $tumblrObj = new readTumblr('mytumblelog');Where mytumblelog is the ID of your tlog on Tumblr (the part before tumblr.com in it's URI). Get some postsNow, the main function of phpTumblr: getPosts. You can get posts with many parameters. You want your 10 last videos? Your 3 last audios starting from the 15th ? No problem :) . Here's the syntax: $tumblrObj->getPosts($start,$num,$type,$id); Let's see the params: - $start: the number of posts after that you'll get those you want. Default is 0.
- $num: the number of posts you want to get. Default is 20.
- $type: the type of posts you want to get. Valid types are regular, quote, photo, link, conversation, video and audio. Default is null (all types will be taken).
- $id: if you want to get a specific post, it's ID go here. Default is null (not used).
And finally get it!No more ceremony... $tumblrArr = $tumblrObj->getArray(); Now I think you could print_r that array and see what you can do with it ;) . That's all! Enable CachingphpTumblr support caching of XML files to save bandwith. It's simple as well! Remember when we create the Object? $tumblrObj = new readTumblr('mytumblelog');Just create a readTumblrCache object! $tumblrObj = new readTumblrCache('mytumblelog','path/to/tmp',3600);The first param have not changed. The second is the path to you cache directory. Be sure you webserver can write in! The last param is the time in second before refreshing the cache. 3600s = 1h. But you can put whatever you want ;) .

great work!thanks for teaching
Just thought I'd point out that this documentation doesn't quite work with the updated package. The comments in the example files included with the download explain everything, though!
Yeah, I've didn't updated here yet... But the example.php is hopefully clear enough.
bless your soul! Kind sir!!!!
