== Installation ==

1. Upload the `slidedeck` folder and all its contents to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory

3. Create a new SlideDeck from the “SlideDeck » Manage” menu in the control panel sidebar
4. Insert a SlideDeck in your post or page by clicking on the "Embed a SlideDeck" button above the rich text editor in the post/page view.

You can also place a SlideDeck in your template or theme via the PHP command “do_shortcode()”. Just pass the ID of the SlideDeck you want to render. For example:
“< ? php echo do_shortcode( "[SlideDeck id=2803]" ); ? >“

Where 2803 is the SlideDeck's ID. You can also see this code snippet when you save a new SlideDeck for the first time.
