<h4>Settings</h4>

<ul>
<li>For a user, simply put your username in the admin interface.</li>
<li>For an artist, you should use the artist’s Songkick id, as shown in the url for your artist page. For example, the url “http://www.songkick.com/artists/123-your-name” has the id “123”.</li>
<li>The same goes for metro areas: “http://www.songkick.com/metro_areas/123-city-name” has the id “123”.</li>

<li>Metro areas: <code>[songkick_concerts_and_festivals songkick_id=your_metro_area_id songkick_id_type=metro_area]</code></li>
</ul>
<p>Override shortcode settings:</p>
