Embeds an interactive iTunes display as a sidebar widget with optional use of affiliate links.\nMultilingual Frontend (just update labels in admin settings page and\/or widget as required)\nShortcode enabled. (use link within widget in widget admin to get the shortcode for the settings selected)\nBased on this plugin, I also built a simple website to quickly search the iTunes store as I found the search iTunes provides on their website quite cumbersome.\nSo if you just quickly want to search for an item on iTunes , head over to search-itunes.com<\/a>. Maybe it's useful...<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the entire itunes-lookup-widget<\/code> folder to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory. <\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress. <\/li>\n
  3. You will find the widget under Appearance > Widgets in the Wordpress backend. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    if using cache, ensure that the cache directory of this plugin is writable by the webserver<\/p>\n\n

    if you have edited the stylesheet and wish to keep your css after updates, just copy 'styles.css' from '\/itunes-lookup-widget\/css\/' as 'ilw-style.css' into your main template directory<\/p>\n\n\n

    none as yet. however,it's my first wp plugin, so leave a message in support if you have problems or feature requests<\/p>\n\n\n
