AnthonyJ Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hello, I need help understanding how to use this plugin. Can you guys look at this instruction page and explain this in layman's terms? Thanks http://www.gopiplus.com/work/2010/08/14/space-gallery/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkencreative Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 What part of it are you needing help with? Installation? Configuration? The instructions seem pretty straightforward to me...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyJ Posted September 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 The configuration part.I have the plugin installed but I don't understand what .xml file? And add the php where? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkencreative Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 The XML file should exist within /wp-content/plugins/[name of space plugin]/. I'm assuming the XML file controls what images display. The gallery can be inserted in one of two ways: -- by editing your theme, and inserting the provided PHP code n a page template or whereever you want it to display -- by adding the short code "[space-gallery=filename=space-gallery.xml&height=450]" into a WYSIWYG field, like the content of a blog post or page. You may need to update the XML path name to point to the correct file, and adjust the height to your liking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyJ Posted September 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 Well I come to find out I don't like this plugin....But I have looked at this one... http://bohemiawebsites.com/WORDPRESS/ Part of the instructions are below and I have a hard part with "place something like" what do you mean something like? And "in your templates" what templates? 3. Place something like `<?php if (function_exists(boslideshow_show())) { boslideshow_show(); } ?>` in your templates within the desired div tag. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkencreative Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 They say "something like" just because it's PHP so it's possible you could code it slightly differently... Place it within an if statement or something. You can basically ignore this. When they talk about Wordpress templates, they are talking about adding this code within the Wordpress theme files.

AnthonyJ Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 OK I am going to give this one a shot...http://bohemiawebsites.com/WORDPRESS/ 1. I want the rotator on the home page. So I add the PHP script in the home page content area via the html viewer? 2. Add images to the file folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
