Auto-update GEORSS feed in GoogleMaps? - maps

I've created my own Google Map and entered the GEORSS feed from my Flickr account.
Geotagged photos display on the map perfectly.
However, when I add new photos with geotag data to Flickr, they don't appear on my Google Map.
How can my Google Map auto update and show all new photos added to the Flickr GEORSS feed?
It doesn't seem to auto-refresh.
If I import the feed again, the new photos show, but old photos are duplicated and now appear twice.
Cheers
Matt

Using Google Apps Script or a Google Sheets formula, How can I get the shared ID of an image that is stored in a Google Drive folder?

I am using Google AppsSheet as a front end to a small business Application I built for a friend using Google Sheets as the user interface, dashboard and database. The Sheet has a dashboard and mockup invoicing system that can display a signature image at the bottom of the invoice that was captured using AppSheet. The filename of the signature is stored in a column as well as all of the other invoice data. On the invoice page, I have a dropdown list of customers and after selecting the customer I click a button that runs a script to populate the invoice with all of the customer data. For the Signature, I am using the Google Sheets formula " =IMAGE("https://drive.google.com/open?id=" & CELL W/IMAGE ID) " to display the captured image on the Google drive. This part works fine BUT only if I use the ID of the image, not the Filename of the image. If have to manually add the image ID, this defeats the automation aspect and I can not expect my buddy to figure that out for every image...
Finally the Question:
Since I have the file name of the image, I would like to get the ID of the image to save in a new column for the recall of the signature Image at the bottom of the invoice page. Then he can export the invoice as a PDF and send to the customer.
Is this possible or is there another way to accomplish displaying an image in Google Sheets using the Filename of an image stored in a Google Drive folder?
I'm a noob and have accomplished a lot using stackOverflow as my main coding reference. I applaud all who contribute to helping us noobs out. Thanks in advance!
I have searched all over google and tried using .getId(), getFilesByName() then trying to get the ID.... As I mentioned before... I am a noob and still wrapping my head around how Objects and Methods work together and trying to visualize the relationships between all of the moving parts. Any good resources for explaining all of this would be helpful as well... Thanks.

How to let users update images based on the images they have already uploaded previously?

Per the title, for example, a user uploaded some photos in specific order previously using filePond, then the server stored the photos in Cloudinary and store the URL into the database.
Now I want filePond to enable that user to update the photos, including adding new photos, deleting old photos, reorder the photos, how can I achieve that in React?

How to grab the YouTube thumbnail from the YouTube url?

I want to include YouTube thumbnail inside my react app.
I already made enable the YouTube v3 api in developers google
so here is the request I am making
https://youtube.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jypIrxqhXo&key=`HEREISTHEKEY`
The thing is The data coming back doesn't have the thumbsmail image data. What am I missing here , what change I have to make to get the thumbnail data back
You need to add part=snippet as an url parameter:
The snippet object contains basic details about a search result, such as its title or description. For example, if the search result is a video, then the title will be the video's title and the description will be the video's description.
So your url should look like this:
https://youtube.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jypIrxqhXo&part=snippet&key=YOURKEY

2sxc Blog App - Tag View

I'm using the blog app and I created a new Pipeline to give me all posts so that I could create a view that would show the archive of posts. I have it working as expected.
On my DNN page, i put another App module on the page and set the view to show the archives list and it works well on the main list view of the Blog App. When I click on a year, say 2016 to see all the posts for that year, the list view shows the correct list of posts based on the PublicationMoment attribute. The problem I'm running into is that It also changes the View on the App module that I had set to show the archives and I think it's because the Blog App as a whole is setup to change the views based on the query string parameters and both of the Blog Apps are changed to show the list of posts. Is there anyway to prevent this from happening?
I was able to figure out a solution. I created another app and set that app to pull the data from the main blog app so that the view that was displaying the Archive lost was independent of the main blog app and subsequently the view for that app didn't change with the query string parameters.

Implementing Yelp business photos into iPhone app like Apple Maps

I'm curious how one might mimic Apple Map's iOS6 approach to showing Yelp photos. For example, when a user searches and clicks on a business, Maps shows a rotating slideshow of photos from Yelp's collection of pictures for that venue. The photos are shown with fade in/fade out transitions.
Does anyone know how to implement this? Also, might the same approach/functionality be offered using the foursquare API?
The Yelp API won't let you (only the first image is available), but if you where to use their API you could get the business yelp url and scrape the pictures from the actual page, BUT that would involve a lot of maintenance and I don't know it that would interfere with their terms (legal?)
