  2. [mp3 list=\"Bestsellers\" browse_node=\"324527011\"]<\/code>

        \n

      2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
        \n
        How do I change the size of my MP3 widget?<\/dt>\n

        You can set 'height' and 'width' parameters to resize your widget. For e.g., to get a 250x250 widget, I would do something like this:

        \n [mp3 width=\"250\" height=\"250\"]

        \nValid combinations of Width x Height are: 250 x 250, 336 x 280, 120 x 300, 160 x 300, 125 x 125, 120 x 90, 234 x 60<\/p><\/dd>\n

        What is the 'shuffle_tracks' parameter?<\/dt>\n

        Sometimes you want your user to see a different set of tracks each time the widget is rendered. Setting 'shuffle_tracks=\"True\"' ensures that the items in your mp3 widget are shuffled before they're presented to the user.<\/p><\/dd>\n

        What are 'browse nodes' and Where can I get all the Amazon MP3 browse nodes?<\/dt>\n

        Browse Node is a number value that Amazon uses to identify a music genre. For eg, the browse_node value for the Pop genre is 324608011. You can get the list of BrowseNode values from here: http:\/\/www.browsenodes.com\/node-324382011.html . Click on a genre name on that page to drill down to the sub-genres. Here is a list of the popular genres and (browse_nodes): \nAlternative Rock (324384011)\nBlues (324396011)\nBroadway & Vocalists (324409011)\nChildren's Music (324414011)\nChristian & Gospel (324420011)\nClassic Rock (324431011)\nClassical (324442011)\nCountry (324492011)\nDance & DJ (324504011)\nFolk (324519011)\nHard Rock & Metal (324527011)\nInternational (324537011)<\/p>\n\n

        Jazz (324552011)\nLatin Music (324570011)\nMiscellaneous (324577011)\nNew Age (324586011)\nOpera & Vocal (324591011)\nPop (324608011)\nR&B (324621011)\nRap & Hip-Hop (324633011)\nRock (324645011)\nSoundtracks (324660011)<\/p><\/dd>\n

        Ok, one FINAL question before I'm sold. I love the MP3 widget. Any plans on doing this for other Amazon widgets on http:\/\/widgets.amazon.com\/?<\/dt>\n

        Checkout the WP Carousel widget here: http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/wp-amazon-carousel\/ . If you want the Slideshow widget, My Favorites or Search widget, drop me a line at dogbertq8@gmail.com and I'll build another plugin for those widgets.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>","raw_excerpt":"Add slick looking Amazon MP3 widgets to your blog posts in a brain-dead simple way!
