SlideShowPro Account Center: User Forums / API Key for Slideshow Pro Lightroom3

Hi,

I have couple of questions and some pointers.

Question 1.
I have download the Lightroom plugin for my existing SlideShowPro_Player_1.9.8.8 and finally installed it to LR3. By the way your Wiki has incorrect instructions for Windows 7 file location. There are NO 'Modules' folder in LR3!

Now that I have it it is asking me SkideShowPro Director API key. I thought the plugin was Free for SlideSHowPro. Am I wrong? if not can you please tell me how to enter or find a API key.

Question 2.
Since I have downloed my SlideShowPro_Player_1.9.8.8 I also wannt to use it with Photoshop CS5. I can not find detail instaructions where to place these SlideShowPro_Player_1.9.8.8 script files in Photoshop.

Thanks

Lightroom doesn't create all of the subdirectories. You have to create it. We mention that in our instructions ( http://wiki.slideshowpro.net/SSPdir/AC- … ToDirector ):

If your "Lightroom" folder doesn't contain a "Modules" folder, create one.

I find it odd that Adobe doesn't create them... go figure.

The plug-in is free, but it's only useful if you also have Director. This plug-in helps you export images from Lightroom directly in to Director. The API key is found in Director.

I guess my first question is, have you purchased Director?

Question 2.
Since I have downloed my SlideShowPro_Player_1.9.8.8 I also wannt to use it with Photoshop CS5. I can not find detail instaructions where to place these SlideShowPro_Player_1.9.8.8 script files in Photoshop.

The plug-in doesn't work with Photoshop. It's only a Lightroom Web plug-in.

Thank you for your answers.

1. No I do not own director and now I know why it does not work.
2. Again this plugin has no instruction where to install. When I run LR3 plugin manager it does nothing when I point to the plugin folder. May be I don't know if I have the correct plugin folder. Where are the instructions?
2.a. I have purchased 'SlideShowPro Player SWF (Single user) ' and 'SlideShowPro Player for Flash (Single user) , I was able to use this plugin in Photoshop CS4 . I need instructions detailing folders to be install in CS5.

I can't understand why slidepro do not have simple installation procedure/install software.

Sorry, I'm confused on what specifically we're talking about.

The SSP/LR help document site:
http://wiki.slideshowpro.net/SSPlr/SSPlr

Installing the SSP/LR plug-in:

Information about "generic" options (options that pertain to all SlideShowPro player products, including SSP/LR):
http://wiki.slideshowpro.net/SSPplayer/SSPplayer

Since you do not own Director, you can ignore any reference to it (such as our "Lightroom to Director Export Plug-in").

I am totally confused too.

I have answered your reply. So I only have one additional question now.

2.a. I have purchased 'SlideShowPro Player SWF (Single user) ' , I was able to use this plugin in Photoshop CS4 . I need instructions how to and where exatly to install in CS5.

Ah, now I get it! Sorry. I totally spaced out what you purchased. Since this is the SSP/LR forum, I was stuck in thinking you purchased the Lightroom plug. My bad.

I don't use Photoshop, so I can only guess. As far as I know, you can't install it as a plug-in. I think we have some "support" scripts that can export the slideshow content for use with a player (like the SWF version you purchased). More information about that can be found here:
http://wiki.slideshowpro.net/PlayerWith … portScript

For further support, I recommend posting in one of the other forums.
