## Description

This plugin provides a basic catfish style advertisement that comes up from the 
bottom of the screen.

The user can enter whatever text they like and change the color of the background
and text styles. They can also choose a location to where the ad will click through
to.

## Installation

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

e.g.

 1. Upload the entire `catfishad_basic` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Configure the plugin, and edit text/settings via the “Catfish-Ad” menu on the main
    menu bar.

## FAQ

#### Why do embeded videos go over the top of my catfish ad?

This would be because the embedded video needs a “wmode=”transparent” placed in 
the embed tag.

Example:

#### Why won’t my ad show up?

If you hit return when typing the text of your ad, then it will not show up. You
need to run your scentences together (See video tutorial link on settings page).
