WordPress.org

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it work.

You can install the plugin automatically from within your WordPress interface. Simply login to WordPress, select Plugins from the menu and then Add New. Search for "microstock photo" and click the Install link to automatically install the plugin.

For older versions of WordPress or manual installation: 1. Download the plugin zip file 2. Upload the entire microstock-photo folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory of your WordPress installation 3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress 4. Add your iStockphoto and/or Fotolia Login and Password to the Microstock Photo settings page 5. The Plugin interface will appear at the bottom of every post

Some Web hosts block the purchase and download of photos. See 'troubleshooting' below for more details.

Troubleshooting:

1. Configure php.ini to enable 'allow_url_fopen = On' (Please ask your Webhoster how to do this)
2. Set '/wp-content/' directory permissions with write access
3. Check if '/wp-content/uploads/fotolia/' or '/wp-content/uploads/istockphoto/' is created after you have downloaded your first image
4. Check if the bought and downloaded photo is stored in the subdirectories of '/wp-content/uploads/fotolia/' or '/wp-content/uploads/istockphoto/'
