 * Ok, so.. I’m brand new to word press.
 * I’ve pretty much been figuring everything out on my own up until this point, 
   I seem to have gotten stuck. I’ve googled this many times but for some reason
   I can’t find the answer.
 * I’m installing new plugins, things like paypal buttons. Anyway, after installing
   the plugin, I don’t know how to get it on the actual page. I’ve come to find 
   out that you use the plugins short code to place it on the page.
 * The problem is, I don’t know where to find the short code for the plugins. Sometimes
   I’ll stumble on them looking through the edit feature for the plugin.
 * Do I have to create a shortcode for each plugin? and can I see a list of short
   codes?
 * Also one more thing… My main goal here is to be able to have a user sign up to
   my to my site, login and purchase a service, after they purchase this service
   they will be directed to a page which allows them to upload files to me. I will
   be servicing these files.
 * How advanced do I have to be to achieve this goal? lol..
 * Anyway, any help will be greatly appreciated.
 * Thanks everyone.

 * Not all plugins use shortcodes. The plugin’s read me (Plugins/Editor)will almost
   always explain usage. Some actually require some coding, other have admin settings.
 * For allowing users to send you files, just get a form plugin(there’s probably
   100 or more) Most all allow for file attachment. You can find plugin which allow
   for redirect after login as well.

 * Cool thanks,
 * I’ve been messing around and I’ve found a lot more out.
 * I’m just searching for a good file upload plugin. Something that has a progress
   bar, something nice. Only thing I’ve found that has been somewhat of what I want
   so far is the Inline Uploader.
 * Thanks for the response.
