I guess you didn't read the entire web page of effectsWIZ.com !

I simply quote their explanations :

To add alpha wipes, first you must place the transition in the appropriate folder. In Windows XP, the folder for the alpha wipes is: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents\Pinnacle\Content\Alpha Magic. In Windows Vista, the folder is: C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Pinnacle\Content\Alpha Magic.

Then it's necessary to clear the effects cache so the program will find the effect. In XP, delete EffectCache.* and EditorCache.* in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Pinnacle\Program Files\Pinnacle\Studio 12\Programs\Plugins\RTFx. In Windows Vista, delete EffectCache.* and EditorCache.* in the folder C:\Users\Public\Documents\Pinnacle\Program Files\Pinnacle\Studio 12\Programs\Plugins\RTFx. There is no danger in deleting these files as they're recreated when you re-launch the program.
