    To implement Monoslideshow in Wordpress, you first have to download Kimili Flash Embed.

    1. Put Kimili Flash Embed in your plugins folder: /wp-content/plugins/
    2. Make a new folder: /wp-content/monoslideshow/
    3. Upload your .SWF, .XML, images and thumbnails to this folder.
    4. Make a new page in Wordpress.
    5. Place this code somewhere in your new post:
    [kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]
    6. To pass Flash variables to the Kimili code (for example, to disable the startup logo), please use this code:
    [kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" fvars="showLogo=false" /]

    Note: the base tag is important! Without it, Monoslideshow wouldn't know where to look for the .XML file.

    Somehow this doesnt seem to work on m WP install(v2.0.4). It shows up the code on the page itself

    <code>[kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/monoslideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/monoslideshow/" height="300" width="400" fvars="showLogo=false" /]</code>

    And when you put this code in the html source? (i.e.: Push the html button in Wordpress)

    No such luck. Here is a temp url: http://karmakars.com/test/

    UPDATE: After tying out a fair few things I realised its kimili thats broken. MSS works just fine. Thanks for all your help Wimer.

    when i add this code in word press,

    [kml_flashembed movie="blog/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="blog/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]


    it works just fine in the preview window and on the main page in the site, but when i add a <!--more-->[kml_flashembed movie="blog/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="blog/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]

    and publish it does not show up on the page. basically i want the slide show embed in the post page not my main page, this works for me with many other .swf. any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hey Guys.. Using WP 2.2.1, got it to work using this URL..

    [kml_flashembed movie="http://www.mydomain.com/blogname/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="http://www.mydomain.com/blogname/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]

    I was able to implement the MSS in the header but I got a message from MSS which goes : No images found in .XML-file.
    I did follow the instruction above by the letter but there is no way to show my pictures.
    After that I create /wp-content/slideshow/ folder I did upload the swf,xml in it and my images in a folder named "images" inside the slideshow folder and in my XML file I set the path to:

    imagePath="images" but nothing and there is no way to show my pictures in any possible way or path like an absolute one.
    anyone? please ;(

    yes thats what I'm wondering too. I wasn't sure if the image path was absolute either.

    I edited the header.php in my \wp-content-\theme\default and placed the swf/xml and album folder in there. but just in case I also placed the album folder in the wordpress root but neither worked??

    what code did you use in the header?

    This is it

    <div id="splash">[kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/slideshow/" height="150" width="800" fvars="showLogo=false" /]</div>

    I did put same folder on the root of the site and point the path to: image="http://www.mysite.com/images" but nothing still same error, I don't get it and i'm also in a bit of a rush too ;( Maybe the flash file is not reading the xml for some reason? i'm confused

    Sorted!

    I used this code in my header.php <div id="mss">[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.yoursite.com/monoslideshow.swf" base="http://www.yoursite.com" height="150" width="800" fvars="showLogo=false" /]</div> Height and size are obviously part of my template...
    Basically Instead of using the path suggested in this 3d I used the root and upload the swf,xml and folder with images to it.
    Don't ask me how but even if the header is in a template folder it work like a charm.

    Your a champion Justixia!! :)

    It works like a charm here too. I had to add a trailing '/' after the base path tho but otherwise its all good! Finally I get to use it hehe :) thanks very much!!

    I'm using this method and it's working fine, I even have the movie being loaded into another swf file with no problems at all, except, I can't turn off the monoslideshow logo on load. Using:

    fvars="showLogo=false"

    does nothing for me, does it work for you guys?

    I followed these instructions and I end with at blank white box on my blog page.

    3. Upload your .SWF, .XML, images and thumbnails to this folder.

    I did this and just added the test info from the .zip download to test it all.

    Nothing happens, it does not appear to run anything

    Please assist

    Thanks

    worked it out.

    you say to create
    2. Make a new folder: /wp-content/monoslideshow/

    then you use slideshow there not monoslideshow in the exanple above. when I substituted monoslideshow all worked.

    [kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]
