  For security reasons, not all codes are acceptable here. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

  Here is a list of pre-approved shortcodes. Slide.ly is not in there http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/

  Either use one of the supported platforms or, if they give you a flash code, you can convert it to a Gigya shortcode. http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/category/gigya/

  Thanks for the info, very helpful.

  I’m trying to get a flash or .swf code off them now, then I’ll see if the gigya shortcode works.

  Will also try and find an online slideshow with music that you can embed into WordPress. The post feels a little silly without the embed.

  Thanks for the info. I gave it a try, but it didn’t work. I guess since it’s a plugin I can’t use it on the free, online version of WordPress. Or if I can I don’t know how.
