 * I tried to use the provided PHP code
 * > <?php if (function_exists(‘slideshow’)) { slideshow($output = true, $gallery_id
   > = false, $post_id = false, $params = array()); } ?>
 * on my template page. Can’t make it work. I have no idea why…
    However it works
   perfectly if I add the [slideshow] tag on my posts.
 * Anyone know why? Do I have any alternatives?
 * Thanks

 * Found the solution!
 * <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[slideshow post_id=”‘.get_the_ID().'”]’) ?>
