Thanks for the reply. I admittedly don;t really know what Vodpod is either! it’s a workaround I found through Google to insert a slideshow from Flickr or Picasa and it makes them video somehow…? I use that instead of the WP slideshow bc you can’t have a picture in the post and then different pictures in the slideshow – it pulls the post photo into the slideshow. Perhaps more detail than you needed…! I’ll explore your way, too.

I’m not using any plugin, and don’t know what “Vodpod” is. I’m using the normal WordPress media system.

And this is a normal plugin. You put it in a PHP file, put it in the WordPress plugins directory, and activate the plugin.

you’re genius. I am not (particularly in this area). Are you using the Vodpod plugin to get Picassa into WordPress? That’s the solution I’ve found so far. and today discovered the captions issue. I pasted your code into the html portion of the WYSIWYG but no change. Where does this code go? Above or below the Vodpod code?

Do you also, perchance, have a solution for getting slideshows to appear in the emails that are sent when you post something new?

Thank you!!

Great idea. I would love to see facebook photo implementation. The fact that it has unlimited photo space is the plus.
