## Description

**
 Buy This Book is no longer under active development. A new plugin called the
[Author Showcase](https://wordpress.org/plugins/author-showcase/) is available with
extended and upgraded functionality. This plugin should still work on the latest
version of WordPress, and support is still available, but it won’t have any new 
features added.

Buy This Book is a WordPress plugin designed for authors. It was created to combat
three problems:

 * Many authors use things like the Amazon Affiliate widget to display their books,
   which is stripped out of webpages by adblockers. This results in their books 
   never being seen by a significant chunk of users, as adblockers are the most 
   popular plugins for Chrome and Firefox.
 * If authors want to just add their books and a link to Amazon, etc, they’re obliged
   to know some HTML and it’s something of a pain in the ass.
 * Neither option is ideal when books can be available on multiple websites.

Buy This Book takes cover images and up to seven websites, and displays them on 
the sidebar with a slideout menu.

It supports:

 * Amazon
 * Kobo
 * Barnes & Noble
 * Smashwords
 * Lulu
 * iBooks
 * One custom option

This version of the plugin can also be modified to use other services.

## Installation

 1. Upload `buy-this-book.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Go to the Appearance -> Widgets screen. You should now see a new widget called 
    Buy This Book. Click and drag it over to your chosen sidebar, and it’ll open up
    automatically.
 4. Fill in the header. This is the widget title, and it’ll display above your books.
 5. Paste the cover image link into the appropriate box. Here’s where the size of the
    image becomes important – if you want to add just one book to your sidebar, make
    the image as wide as the sidebar and only use the first column. If you’re only 
    adding two and you want them to sit side by side, you have to make sure the images
    are narrow enough to fit comfortably. If you find that your images are below each
    other instead of being side by side, and you don’t want this to happen, then reduce
    their size. Include an alt tag to describe your cover.
 6. Paste a link to your book’s page for each website into the appropriate boxes. Any
    you don’t use won’t show up.
 7. Save the widget. You’re done! Check your site and click on the cover images to 
    see the menu slide out from the bottom.

## FAQ

  My covers are jumping around when I click on them and the menu slides out!

You’re probably using cover images smaller than 100px wide. The menu is set in a
box that’s 105px across, because the icons are stacked into two rows of three, and
having it slide out makes everything jump around as the images try to accomodate
the extra space.

Add this line to your CSS:

.buybook .box { width: XXpx !important; }

where XX = width of your image + 5.

This should fix it.
