 * Hi,
    When on the setting albums tab, I cannot copy the shortcode for albums. 
   I do a right click on the code and I get a Flash Player “Movie not Loaded” error.
 * I can type it by hand, but it would be nice to be able to just copy and paste.

 * Hi breakoftheec,
 * You just need to left click it and it will copy to your clip board. You will 
   see text pop up that says “copied” once you click on it. No need to right-click
   it. If you have issues, make sure your Flash Player is up-to-date in your browser.
   Flash is used here for cross-browser support. Hope that helps.

 * I did use left click. It’s not working.
    It happened in two different browsers
   with latest versions of the player. I’m on localhost so maybe there’s something
   there. I haven’t tested on other computers so it might be an issue with mine.
 * In any case, let me suggest adding a plain text fallback or some flash-less option.
 * I for one, use WordPress sometimes from my phone, and It doesn’t support flash.
 * Great plugin though. I’ll do a,review soon.

 * Cool, I can move the click to copy area off the text in the next version so it
   can also be highlighted and copied. Good suggestion! Glad you like the plugin.
