 * So i went through the instructions and downloaded and activated the plugin. I’m
   developing my wordpress site locally, though am not sure that’s the issue. When
   i go to the plugin editor it says that several of the files (js and php) are 
   inactive.
 * I added in the code (div tags etc…) to my posts, but it’s not working.
 * Is there something i should be doing, linking too, adding code to my header or
   footer that i’m not doing?
 * Appreciate any help or insight
 * cheers,
    shaun

 * Hi Shwebb,
 * No all you need to do is download and install/activate the plugin. Everything
   should be loaded after activation. All of the necessary code/files are loaded
   into the header on the front end of your site. Please let me know if your still
   having issues. Thanks.

 * Evan,
 * I’ve tried it several times and it’s still not working. My guess is it might 
   have something to do with it being local to my computer and some security settings
   assigned to it. I’m having similar issues with other plugins.
 * Thanks,
    Shaun

 * It should work on localhost and on a live site. Are you receiving any errors?
