 * Hi,
 * I want to add a nextgen Gallery and slideshow without the use of the shortcodes
   like [slideshow id=51] or something like that.
 * I thought of including it via php, something like <?php show slideshowID=51 ?
   >
 * Hay anyone experience with that and know how the code will be?
 * My idea behind that, I want to include a specific gallery and slideshow in a 
   post via custom fields. I know, there are ways to use shortcodes in custom fields.
   But I’m using the headway theme, here are several automations and it seems this
   doesn’t work with headway. So I thought of using php to show up the galleries
   and slideshow.
