Latest Update
=============
v1.0.4 (for Joomla 1.0) and v1.5.4 (for Joomla 1.5)
Released August 17, 2008
This is an enhancement contributed by Dr. J.R.Halon.
The "Include Content Item" plugin now works with Joom!Fish! (a multilingual content manager for Joomla)
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,viewlink/link_id,460/Itemid,35/
New features:
* If you have Joom!Fish installed, the plugin will automatically detect which language the current page is in, and automatically retrieve the corresponding translated page of the specified content item.
* If there are no translated page for that particular content item, it will use the original content item of the default language.
* You can "force" the loading of the translated page of a particular language with the following syntax: {include_content_item fr 123}. This will force the page to load the french translation for content item 123.

How to use
==========
Inserting a content item is as easy as {include_content_item 123},
where 123 is the ID of the content item to be included.
Note: The ID of the respective content item is listed in the Content Items Manager (or Article Manager in Joomla 1.5).
This is useful, for example, when you have a block of text that you want to appear across a number of content items or articles e.g. download instructions, copyright notice, images, common links/resources, etc.
If you have installed the DirectPHP plugin, you can also store frequently used PHP code snippets in a content item. This can then be included into other content items. Note: Please make sure that in the Mambot/Plugin Manager, this plugin comes before the DirectPHP plugin so that this plugin is being processed first, followed by DirectPHP.
