      How do I make a new setting?<\/dt>\n

      To make a new setting, click Simple Settings<\/code> in the WordPress admin menu,\nthen click Add New<\/code>. Give your setting a name, type, and content, then click Publish<\/code>.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      How do I delete a setting?<\/dt>\n

      To delete a setting, click on the setting name to edit it, then click Move to\nTrash<\/code> on the next screen.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      What types of settings can I make?<\/dt>\n

      Currently, this plugin supports the ability to create text<\/code> and boolean<\/code>\nsettings. Text settings will return a string and boolean settings will return\ntrue or false.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Can my setting include HTML and JavaScript?<\/dt>\n

      Yes it can! It's also handy for adding third-party JavaScript widgets to posts\nor pages.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      What is a \"slug\"?<\/dt>\n

      A slug is a unique computer-readable name for each setting that is created.\nSlugs are used by the get_setting()<\/code> function and by token replacement.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      How do I use a setting in my template?<\/dt>\n

      To use a setting in your template, first create the setting (i.e. \"My Setting\"),\nthen paste the code below into your template. Remember to change the example\nslug to the one for your setting!<\/em><\/p>\n\n

      <?php echo get_setting('my_setting'); ?>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
      Alternatively, you can also use the value of a setting to affect the output of\na page. For example:<\/p>\n\n
      <?php\n\n    if (get_setting('do_something') == true) {\n        echo 'Doing something!';\n    } else {\n        echo 'Not doing something.';\n    }\n\n?>\n<\/code><\/pre><\/dd>\n
      How do I use token replacement via the WYSIWYG?<\/dt>\n
      To use token replacement via the WYSIWYG, first create the setting (i.e. \"My\nSetting\"), edit the page you would like your setting to be displayed on, paste\nthe text below into the WYSIWYG, and save. The plugin will automatically\nreplace the token with the corresponding setting value when viewing the page.\nIt's as easy as that!  Remember to change the example slug to the one for\nyour setting!<\/em><\/p>\n\n
      {my_setting}\n<\/code><\/pre><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
