One of the most advanced Analog Clock on the web. Completely XML customizable without any Flash knowledge. And it's free!

== Description ==

You can place this Analog Clock on any website for free without even using Flash. The skin is XML customizable, there are multiple configurable properties for shade and background, there are sound effects and other sound play properties, the time zone can be selectable and it includes 3 types of clock pins movements. Also, there are many more properties on the Live Demo.

== Installation ==

Make sure your Wordpress version is greater than 2.8 and your hosting provider is using PHP5.

1. There are two files to download: [WordPress Plugin](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/analog-clock-fx.zip "Analog Clock FX Plugin") (that you have to install and activate) & [Free archive](http://www.flashxml.net/free/download/analog-clock.zip "Analog Clock FX")
2. Create a new folder inside your **wp-content** folder called **flashxml**, inside this folder create a new one called **analog-clock-fx** and copy the content of the **free archive** there
3. If you copied the **free archive** to a location different than the one above, go to **Analog Clock FX** from the **Settings** tab in your **WordPress Dashboard** and update the path accordingly
4. Add `[analog-clock-fx][/analog-clock-fx]` where you want the Flash to show up in your post/page
5. If you want to make the Analog Clock FX part of your theme, edit the template files and add `<?php analogclockfx_echo_embed_code(); ?>` where you want it to show up
6. Go to [FlashXML.net](http://www.flashxml.net/ "Free Flash Components") and [customize your Analog Clock FX](http://www.flashxml.net/analog-clock.html "Analog Clock FX") using the Live Demo. Generate the `settings.xml` text and use it to overwrite `wp-content/flashxml/analog-clock-fx/settings.xml`

= Additional settings file =

To embed the Analog Clock FX more than once, you will need another settings file. Let's assume your new file is called `settings2.xml`. Add `[analog-clock-fx settings="settings2.xml"][/analog-clock-fx]` where you want the Flash to show up in your post/page. If you made the Flash part of your theme, add the file name as **the first argument** of the `analogclockfx_echo_embed_code()` function call (for example `<?php analogclockfx_echo_embed_code("settings2.xml"); ?>`).

= No Flash support text =

To support visitors without Adobe Flash Player, you can provide alternative content by adding the text between `[analog-clock-fx]` and `[/analog-clock-fx]`. If you made the Flash part of your theme, add the text as **the second argument** of the `analogclockfx_echo_embed_code()` function call (for example `<?php analogclockfx_echo_embed_code("","Alternative content"); ?>`).

= If you have PHP4 =

To make it work with PHP4, add `[analog-clock-fx width="600" height="300"][/analog-clock-fx]` where you want the Flash to show up in your post/page. If you made the Flash part of your theme, add the width and height as **the third and fourth argument** of the `analogclockfx_echo_embed_code()` function call. Don't forget to provide your own width and height values, since 600 and 300 are just examples.

= Getting rid of the FlashXML.net label =

To remove the FlashXML.net label from the top-left corner you'll need to buy the [paid package](http://www.flashxml.net/analog-clock.html "Analog Clock FX"). Once you'll do that, simply use the SWF file from the paid package to overwrite the SWF file from the `wp-content/flashxml/analog-clock-fx/` folder.
