== Description ==

A WordPress slideshow plugin fed from a SmugMug RSS feed and displayed using pure Javascript.

Development began Apr 11th, 2011 and this is the first release. **Blip currently supports SmugMug RSS feeds only.**
Other media RSS feed types will be added soon.

== Installation ==

1. Download Blip
1. Unzip and upload the resulting folder to the '/wp-content/plugins/' directory
1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
1. Place the [slideshow] shortcode in your posts and/or pages

**Examples for use**

*As a simple slideshow:*

>[slideshow rss=feed://www.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=popular&Data=all&format=rss200&Size=Small]

*As a slideshow with thumbs and captions:*

>[slideshow rss=feed://www.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=popular&Data=all&format=rss200&Size=Small captions=true thumbnails=true]

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How does it work? =

Blip is a wrapper for [Slideshow 2!](http://www.electricprism.com/aeron/slideshow/ 'Javascript MooTools Slideshow') by Aeron Glemann with some nifty RSS-reading magic. If you like Blip, please show your support to him.

= What is Media RSS? =

Media RSS (MRSS) is an RSS extension used for syndicating multimedia files (audio, video, image) in RSS feeds. Like your WordPress
RSS news feed, media RSS lists pictures instead of articles from websites like *Flickr* and *SmugMug*.

= Where can I find my SmugMug RSS feed URL? =

SmugMug has a [Help](http://www.smugmug.com/help/rss-atom-feeds "How to subscribe to RSS feeds") page.
