Important! Before you begin...
-
You will need to have a Fotomoto account - if you don't already have one you can sign up here.
-
Fotomoto will work in most any WordPress site that is *not* hosted on wordpress.com.
-
We highly recommend using one of the Fotomoto-compatible WordPress themes listed on our How page. Fotomoto should work with other themes, but we do not guarantee it. If you plan to use a different theme, please see this article.
Installing Fotomoto on WordPress

Add the Fotomoto Site Key
Click the Fotomoto link under the Settings menu in the sidebar, then paste in the Site Key you copied in Step #1 and click Save Changes.

Set options for your gallery
See this article on how to set up Fotomoto in your Gallery.
Note: If you use a JavaScript library to add lightbox, slideshow or other functionality, you'll need to select the appropriate Script Library in your Fotomoto Dashboard - see this article. Fotomoto Buy Buttons may not work with your library if it's not in the list of libraries that work with Fotomoto.

Success!
The Fotomoto Buy Button toolbar should now appear under every image on your Wordpress site. Next, you'll want to read our article "I've installed Fotomoto - now what?".
If you don't see the Buy Buttons, please see this article.
