Now you can create slideshow from any HTML tags (switch to HTML editor) and write
example:

    ```
    [aslideshow]
        <p><label>Caption of slide one</label>Text for slide one ... </p>
        <p><label>Caption of slide two</label>Text for slide two ... </p>
        <p>Text for slide three ... w/out caption</p>                
        <img src="/wp-content/uploads/yyyy/mm/image01.jpg" alt="Slide four - is image"/>
        <a href="/wp-content/uploads/yyyy/mm/image02.jpg" title="Slide five"/>It's link to image, image load dynamically</a>                
    [/aslideshow]
    ```

**NOTICE**: You can use _slideshow_ button (on quicktags bar)

You can change settings for all slideshow – go to **Settings** -> **(a) Slideshow**

**NOTICE**: Widget use a global settings of plugin (if it exist)

You can change setting for any slideshow (different from global settings), use next
syntax:

    ```
    [aslideshow %options%]
        <img src="/wp-content/uploads/yyyy/mm/image01.jpg" alt="Caption 1"/>
        <img src="/wp-content/uploads/yyyy/mm/image02.jpg" alt="Caption 2"/>
        <img src="/wp-content/uploads/yyyy/mm/image03.jpg" alt="Caption 3"/>
    [/aslideshow]
    ```

Where %options% – is settings for (a)Slideshow jQuery Plugin – example:

    ```
    [aslideshow effect="random" play=true playframe=false controls_play=true]
        <img src="/wp-content/uploads/yyyy/mm/image01.jpg" alt="Caption 1"/>
        <img src="/wp-content/uploads/yyyy/mm/image02.jpg" alt="Caption 2"/>
        <img src="/wp-content/uploads/yyyy/mm/image03.jpg" alt="Caption 3"/>
    [/aslideshow]
    ```

## FAQ
