 * Hi all,
 * I have just installed the slideshow plug-in however when I try to add images 
   by clicking the ‘insert image slide’ button, nothing happens.
 * I have read the installation instructions and there is supposed to be a pop-up
   box when you click this button…….but not for me!
 * Can anyone help?
 * FYI, I am using a Twenty Twelve Child theme on WordPress v3.5.1
 * Thanks in advance
 * Chris

 * Hi Chris,
 * It’s possible that there’s a JavaScript error in your WordPress admin that’s 
   preventing the pop-up from showing.
 * Most likely a JavaScript error is caused by another plugin. You can find out 
   which plugin it is by disabling your plugins one by one until the slideshow’s
   image inserter pop-up is able to show.
 * If this doesn’t help, could you tell me what browser you’re using?
 * Best regards,
    Stefan

 * Hi Stefan,
 * Thanks for the response.
 * Your advice worked, I disabled my plug-ins and it worked!
 * I have another question:-
 * How can I make the slideshow appear in my header? I am using the Twenty Twelve
   Child theme.
 * Thanks in advance

 * Hi Chris,
 * That’s great to hear!
 * I added the slideshow PHP snippet right after the ‘`<hgroup>...</hgroup>`‘ element,
   in the theme’s ‘header.php’ file to get the effect you can see in the slideshow’s
   example images.
 * Best regards,
    Stefan
