## FAQ

  What is storify

Storify is a way to tell stories using social media such as Tweets, photos and videos.
You search multiple social networks from one place, and then drag individual elements
into your story. You can re-order the elements and also add text to give context
to your readers. See [Storify F.A.Q](http://storify.com/storifyfaq/frequently-asked-questions,)
for more informations.

  How many stories are displayed

The stories (or liked stories) are displayed by pages of 20. When reaching the end
of the page, the 20 next stories will be loaded.

  What are the available options

There are two mandatory options. The omission of one of these parameters will prevent
the plugin work:

 * **username**: the username from whom the stories will be gathered

Other optional options are:

 * **name**: the name of the widget, must be unique and contains only alphanumeric
   characters. Only usefull for post-processing using jQuery.
 * **width**: the width of the whole widget, by default, the tile of a story is 
   330×200
 * **height**: the height of the whole widget
 * **entries**: the number of stories to show. The size of an entry will then directly
   depend on the size of the whole widget
 * **scroll**: the number of stories to scroll, this must not exceed the number 
   of entries shown
 * **orientation**: the orientation of the widget, either _horizontal_ or _vertical_
 * **type**: the type of stories to gather, either _stories_ or _likes_
 * **sorting**: the order of the stories, either _asc_ or _desc_. Default value 
   is desc and shows last entry first

  Where and how do i add a short code

You can add a short code pretty much anywere. Create a page and past this sample
code:

  [storify-stories-slider username=”your_storify_username_here”]

Change the username and then go and check out the page to see the slider working.
To add an option, just edit the short code you’ve created and add the option you
want. Both option name and value must be surrounded by coma.
 For instance the following
short code will create a vertical slider which display 4 stories ordered by date(
first is the oldest), scroll by one and have a size of 400×800:

  [storify-stories-slider username=”your_storify_username_here” sorting=”asc” entries
=”4″ scroll=”1″ orientation=”vertical” width=”400″ height=”800″ ]
