Installation Instructions

If you don't already have a Vodpod account, create one here: http://vodpod.com/newpod?r=wordpress

If you don't want to create an account, you can still install the widget, and we'll display videos we think are cool.

1. Download the plugin archive and expand it (you've likely already done this).
2. Put the 'vodpod_widget.php' file and 'vodpod' folder into your wp-content/plugins/ directory.
3. Go to the Plugins page in your WordPress Administration area and click 'Activate' for the Vodpod plugin.

To create a Sidebar Widget:

1. Go to the Presentation menu, and click 'Sidebar Widgets'.
2. Drag "Vodpod Videos" to your Sidebar, and click the icon next to it to show the configuration details.
3. Enter your Pod URL, and customize the style, title, and color as you like.

To create a Gallery:

1. Go to "Write" followed by "Write Page" in your WordPress Administration area.
2. Write [vodpod_gallery pod=YourPodSubdomain], and click Publish. YourPodSubdomain will be the text that comes before '.vodpod.com' on your pod homepage. For example, you would use 'funnyvideos' if your pod was http://funnyvideos.vodpod.com.

To create a Horizontal widget:

1. Go go Presentation and choose Theme Editor in your Wordpress administration area.
2. Select the 'Header' file from the right hand side of the theme editor.
3. Add <?php vp_template('[vodpod_header pod=YourPodSubdomain]'); ?> wherever you want the vodpod sidebar widget to appear.
4. Click Update File
