 * Hi I am trying to learn and build my website and in particular install wp photo
   album plus using WordPress 4.1 running Atahualpa theme.
    The issues l am encountering
   are related scripting codes that to a degree are working however l am unable 
   to get shortcode to work? Secondly the site is hosted by one company and forwarded
   to my domain with someone else. If l use the scripting codes on the hosted site‘%%
   wppa%%%%cover=$latest%% %%type=slideonly%%%%size=auto%%’ they work however when
   l use the same code via the domain website l see the album but not the slides
   when navigation to the page until l click on the album Any help would be very
   welcome

 * It is strongly recommended to use shortcodes in stead of scripting.
    If you have
   any problems with shortcodes, do not hesitate to ask me. In that case, please
   supply a link to a page that shows the problem, and make sure you tick the box
   in Table IX-A3, what enables me to see diagnostic info.
