== Description ==

Upgraded fron 'Slideshow Gallery' this a photo viewing solution that integrates seemlessly with your normal WordPress image upload and gallery. 

Flexible, configurable and easy to use. Embed-able and hardcode-able and improved. To embed into a post/page, simply insert <code>[slideshow]</code> into its content with optional <code>post_id</code>, <code>exclude</code>, and <code>caption</code>  parameters. To hardcode into any PHP file of your WordPress theme, simply use <code>&lt;?php if (class_exists('Gallery')) { $Gallery = new Gallery(); $Gallery -> slideshow($output = true, $post_id = null); } ?&gt;</code> and specify the required <code>$post_id</code> parameter accordingly.

You will not be able to use "Slideshow Gallery" if you wish to use "Slideshow Gallery 2"
