    Hi There. The first thing I have to say is this plugin is by far the best one I have ever seen. The amount of work that you have put into it is amazing. To have one plugin that not only displays my photos, but has a front end uploader AND voting is awesome. Thank you so much!
    I wanted to ask if there is a way to add a vertical text box in front of or behind the photo in the main body? I have been able to add horizontal text boxes on top of or under the photo, but not vertically right before or after. Is this option available somewhere? Thanks again for all you do!

    Try align in the shortcode, eithe left or right.

    E.g.: [wppa type="album" album="34" width="400" align="left"][/wppa]
    will craete a wppa container of 400 px wide, left aligned, leaving the rest of the space for text. Enter the text AFTER the shortcode.

    Thank you so much for the response. I was not able to get the text box to show up. Rather I just got the text I entered underneath the photo. Here is the shortcode I am using on the page. [wppa type=”slide” album=”1″][/wppa] I tried [wppa type=”slide” album=”1″][/wppa]This is a sample of the text I want. It did not work. Am I doing it wrong?

    You use this: [wppa type="slide" album="1"][/wppa]
    Make it this: [wppa type="slide" album="1" align="left"][/wppa]

    I very much appreciate your help! Thank you! Unfortunately, the text I enter is showing up at the bottom of the page, under the voting and comments. The shortcode and text I am now using is [wppa type=”slide” album=”1″ align=”left”][/wppa]This is a test text box!
    Am I entering the text in the right place?

    Am I entering the text in the right place?

    Yes, this should work.

    Note:
    If you have Table I-A1 set to auto because you have a responsive theme, you must supply a fractional size in the shortcode
    example: [wppa type="slide" album="1" size="0.65" align="left"][/wppa] for a width of 65%. In this case you may want to put the text inside a p-tag, to create a margin between the slideshow and the text like: [wppa type="slide" album="1" size="0.65" align="left"][/wppa]<p style="margin-left:20px;">Additional text</p>
    Do this in the TEXT editor, NOT the WYSIWYG!!!!!

    If you have set Table I-A1 to a value, you must supply a width smaler than that, to craete space for the text: example:

    Table I-A1 set to 640, shortcode example: [wppa type="slide" album="1" size="440" align="left"][/wppa] to have 200 pixels space for the text. Margin supplied automaticly.

    If you supply me a link, maybe i can tell more…

    Thank you so much. That is putting it where I want it for the most part. I just have to figure out how to drop it down a little bit and add a text box around it. I appreciate all of your help!
