## Installation

The installation procedure is same as all other wordpress plugins.

 1. Upload the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/ directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. You can either choose to configure it from Settings->DZone Button or leave the 
    defaults which would pretty much be good for most of the people.

## FAQ

#### What is display page settings?

You can choose on which pages the voting button should be displayed. You can uncheck“
Display the button on the front page (home)” to not display it on frontpage. Then
it will just display on pages and posts. The description is pretty straightforward
and I don’t think anyone would need any further explanation

#### What does position settings do?

You can choose where to display the button in your content. Should it be before 
the content, after the content or both before and after.

#### What does globally enabled shortcode do?

Suppose you unchecked all 3 display page settings so that the button doesn’t appear
anywhere but you still want the shortcodes to work, globally enabled shortcodes 
would do the exact thing. Only selecting ‘Enabled’ would not make the
 shortcodes
work on disabled display pages.

#### What does the styling do?

You can use CSS styles that surround the div containing the button. This allows 
you to style most of the things about the button like alignment – left or right 
or center, margins etc.

#### What about button styles? What does it do?

You can choose to types of buttons to display from. You can check those out [here](http://www.dzone.com/links/buttons.jsp).

#### What does compatibility mode do?

This plugins break the some themes due to the javascript nature. You can enable 
compatibility mode to display the iframe instead of javascript. This is only recommended
for those who have problems with the plugin breaking their theme.
