 * After updating to WP3.1 the visual editor is broken whenever the plugin is activated.
 * Sad, because I love the plugin!

   correct way or wrong but it worked for me.

 * Hope it works.

 * Now you can’t update the plugin, because it is likely that the slideshow-gallery.
   php will get overwritten with the new version. For those of us not in control
   of the website anymore, the client may update the plugin and find their slideshows
   broken. I would only use this method if you can remember it for when you update
   it.

 * argh… this doesn’t work for me, probably something to do with the buggiest of
   all the plugins – wp-e-commerce

 * Yes! Once I figured out what was causing the issue, I didn’t expect to find such
   a simple solution like this. Works like a charm! Thank you so much.

 * can someone provide a more detailed walk through on this …
 * i opened slideshow-gallery.php and it already shows
 * “$this -> add_filter(‘mce_external_plugins’);”
 * i am not sure what “comment this part” means
 * Thanks!

 * Comment out that line; add “//” in front of it.
