Please note that this projector pulls data from a JSON file, which is automatically generated when you make albums with database-driven skins (Tiger, Photoblogger, Projector, Lizard, or Story). However, you can also ask jAlbum to generate this file with any skin; see “Settings / Advanced / Generate JSON data.” (Don’t forget to “Make album” and “Upload” after turning this option on.)
If you’re using the album from another site, make sure this site supports Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS); otherwise, the projector’s access will be blocked. Note that if the WordPress site is under https, the album site must support HTTPS protocol, too!
